Perception is one of key representative characteristics of the images-symbols presented in poems of symbolists. Internality, feelings and emotions of the poet, his reflections about problems of existence and an image of the world (real or illusory) are verbalized by linguistic means with semantics of sensual perception.

At the expense of various contextual accretions traditional images-symbols get authors individual content within the poetic text.
