The article is dedicated to the role and significance of miracle phenomenon in “Boris Godunov” tragedy by Alexander Pushkin. As noted in the article the miracles depicted by Pushkin bear a very significant message translating the poet’s thought that the Time of Troubles history versified in the tragedy as well as the whole Russian and world history are nothing more but God’s providence. The miracles described by Pushkin in “Boris Godunov” are the artistic representation of the poet’s thought about coexistence and interaction of two worlds: spiritual (“astral”) and material one. It is stressed that each miracle in the tragedy serves its specific function and bears its own message. The author analyzed works of national and foreign authors who in some way or other addressed the miracles theme of “Boris Godunov”. The article contains references to the works of Holy Fathers of Orthodox Church clarifying the meaning and implication of miracles phenomena.
Keywords: miracle, providence, history.
