Abstract: The subject of the present article is the linguistic execution and interpretation of the poetic concept of God in the cycle of poems 'The Book of Hours' written by an Austrian poet of the 20th century Rainer Maria Rilker. The author of the article offers his own definition of the poetic concept within the framework of the linguistic poetic research. Special attention is paid to the definition of 'sense'. Poetic senses form the sense of the concept that differs from the generally accepted sense. Vorobey analyzes lexical and sense bearing structures of the concept of God. The main content of the article is devoted to the interpretation of the concept under review. The researcher also establishes relations with other concepts from the cycle of poems. To study the poetic concept, the authr offers to apply the hermeneutic-linguistic method that is based on the combination of Roland Barthes' method of textual analysis as well as the method of predicate nests and the method of hermeneutic circle. Researchers who study Rainer Maria Rilker's poetry mostly focus on his late period of writing while the cycle of poems 'The Book of Hours' which he wrote in his late period is often left out. The present research fills the gap. The novelty of the research is also caused by the fact that the author creates a new method for analyzing a poetic text. This method combines linguistic and hermeneutic methods.
