Abstract: In «Triptych» by Sasha Sokolov with the help of motifs «a script», «a list» and «a recitative» the rhetoric treatise transforms into a vers libre. Due to it the boundaries of rhetoric and poetics become mutually permeable. Such mutual penetrability enhances the principal difference between the reading of the text and its written form. The written text possesses a number of potential references, which allows to imagine the authentic being of a piece of Art. The motif of scription as a motif of killing and resurrection of a word gets its maximum in the third part of «The Triptych» – «The Filornit». Thanks to this a metalanguage of the rhetoric is translated into the register of poetics, ensuring a transition to the categories of the plot and the genre, where the plot absorbs the story and the real features of genres become imaginary, which transform the speculations at first in the elegy and then in the libretto of the theatrical performance.
