Akhmatova also gave birth to a son, the future historian, Gumilyov Lev Nikolaevich is an important event in his personal life.

Ahmatova creativity

Included in the first collection of verses plastic for the images used in them, clear composition. They made Russian criticism to say that in poetry there was a new talent. Although the "teachers" of Akhmatova's are such master symbolists, A. Blok and I. F. Annensky poetry it was perceived from the outset as acoustically. In fact, along with O. E. Mandelstam and N. S. Gumilev the poetess in the beginning of 1910 years was the core of this appeared at the time of the new currents in poetry.

Next two collections, the decision to stay in Russia

Followed for the first collection and a second book called "Rosary" (1914), and three years later, in September 1917, he published the collection "White flock", the third in her work. October revolution poet to emigrate is not made, although at this time there was a mass emigration. Russia left one after another, people close to Akhmatova, A. Lurie, B. Antra, and O. Glebova-Sudeikina, her friend of youth. However, the poet decided to stay in "wicked" and "deaf" of Russia. A sense of responsibility to his country, connection with the Russian land and language prompted Akhmatova to enter into a dialogue with decided to leave. For years, those who left Russia, continued to justify their emigration before Akhmatova. With it argues, in particular, R. Gul, turn to Anna Andreyevna B. Frank and G. Adamovich.

Difficult time for Anna Akhmatova

Akhmatova essay on creativity

At this time, abruptly changed her life that reflected her creativity. Akhmatova worked in the library at the Agronomy Institute, in the early 1920s managed to publish two more poetry collections. It was the "Plantain", released in 1921, and "Anno Domini" (translated - "In the year of our Lord", released in 1922). For 18 years after this print appeared on her poems. Different reasons for this existed: on the one hand, it is shot N.With. Gumilev, ex-husband, who was accused of plotting against the revolution; on the other, the aversion to creativity of the poet of the Soviet criticism. Anna Andreevna lot in the years of this involuntary silence was doing the work of Alexander Pushkin.

Visiting Optina

Change your "voice" and "handwriting" Akhmatova was associated with the middleFrom the 1920s, with a visit in 1922, in may, Optina and conversation with the Elder Nektarios. Probably this conversation has greatly influenced the poet. Akhmatova was maternally related to A. Motovilov, who was a worldly novice Seraphim of Sarov. She took on through generations the idea of redemption, sacrifice.

Second marriage

The fate of Akhmatova fracture was also associated with the personality V. Shileiko, who became her second husband. It was the orientalist, who was involved in the culture of these ancient countries like Babylon, Assyria, Egypt. Personal life with this helpless in life and a domineering man did not work, however, the influence of his poet was credited in his work the increasing philosophical restrained notes.

Life and work in the 1940s

The Collection called "six books" appears in 1940. He returned for a short time in the contemporary literature of the time such a poet, Anna Akhmatova. The life and work of her at this time quite dramatic. Caught Akhmatova in Leningrad in the Great Patriotic war. She was evacuated from there to Tashkent. However, in 1944, the poet returned to Leningrad. In 1946, subjected to unjust and cruel criticism, it was excluded from the Writers ' Union.

Return to Russian literature

Akhmatova's life and creativity

After this event, the following decade in the work of the poet is marked only by the fact that at this time engaged in artistic translation of Anna Akhmatova. The work of the Soviet government was not interested. L. N. Gumilev, her son, was serving at this time, punishment in labor camps as a political criminal. Return to Russian literature the poetry of Anna Akhmatova took place only in the second half of the 1950s. In 1958 the collections of the lyrics of this poet are once again beginning to be published. Was completed in 1962, "Poem without a hero", created for already 22 years. Anna Akhmatova died in 1966, 5 Mar. The poet is buried near St. Petersburg, in komariv. Her grave is shown below.

Acmeism in the works of Akhmatova

Akhmatova, work which today is one of the peaks of Russian poetry, his first book of poems treated later is pretty cool, the only place providing it: "...intoxicated by the sound of a voice like yours." Mikhail Kuzmin, however, his Preface to this collection ended with the words that we are talking to a young, new poet, having all the data in order to become real. Largely determined poetics "Evenings" theoretical program of Acmeism, a new current in the literature, which often considers a poet, Anna Akhmatova. Her art reflects many of the characteristic features of this trend.

The Photo below was taken in 1925.

Anna Akhmatova creativity

Acmeism emerged as a reaction to the extremes of the style of the symbolists. For example, the article by V. M. Zhirmunsky, a famous literary critic, about the work of the representatives of this direction was called the following: "Break the symbolism." Mystical vistas and "purple worlds" was opposed to their life in this world, here and now. Moral relativism and various forms of the new Christianity was replaced by the "values of the inviolable rock."

The Theme of love in the works of the poet

Akhmatova came to the literature of the 20th century's first quarter, with the traditional theme for the world lyrics - theme of love. However, its solution in the works of this poetess is essentially new. Far Akhmatova's poetry from sentimental women's poetry, presented in the 19th century with names such as Karolina Pavlova, Yulia Zhadovskaya, Mirra Lokhvitskaya. They are far from "ideal", abstract lyricism, characteristic of the love poetry of the symbolists. In this sense, was based mostly not on Russian lyrics, and prose of the 19th century, Akhmatova. Her creativity was innovative. Osip Mandelstam, for example, wrote that in the lyrics brought the complexity of a Russian novel of the 19th century, Akhmatova. An essay on creativity it would be possible to start with this thesis.

In "the Night" appeared in different guises feelings of love, but the heroine were invariably rejected, betrayed, suffer. K. Chukovsky wrote about it that first discovered that to be unloved is poetic, it is Akhmatova (an essay on creativity her, "Akhmatova and Mayakovsky", created by the same author, in many respects promoted its harassment when the verses of this poet was not published). In unrequited love, was seen as the source of creativity, not a curse. Three parts of the collection are named, respectively, "Love", "Cheating" and "Muse". The delicate femininity and elegance combined in the lyrics of Akhmatova with a manly acceptance of his suffering. Of the 46 poems contained in this collection, nearly half was devoted to separation and death. This is no accident. In the period from 1910 to 1912, the poet possessed a sense of crackaddict, she had a premonition of death. By 1912, two of her sisters died of tuberculosis, so Anna Gorenko (Akhmatova, life and work which we are considering) thought that the same fate will befall her. However, it is not bound, unlike the symbolists, separation and death with feelings of despair, longing. These sentiments gave rise to the experience of beauty in the world.

Outlined in the book "Night" and finally took shape first in "the Rosary," then "White pack" distinctive features of the stylethis poetess.

Motives of conscience and memory

Historicity is Deeply intimate poems of Anna Andreevna. In the "Rosary" and "Evening" together with the theme of love there are two other main motive of conscience and memory.

"fateful Minutes" that marked Russian history (beginning in 1914 the first world war) coincided with a difficult period in the life of the poet. It opened in 1915, tuberculosis, in the family of her hereditary disease.

"Pushkinist" Akhmatova

Anna Akhmatova's life and creativity

Even stronger motives of conscience and memory in the "White pack", after which in her work become dominant. The poetic style of this poet in 1915-1917 evolyutsioniruet. Increasingly in the criticism referred to a kind of "pushkinist" Akhmatova. The essence of it is artistic perfection, precision of expression. There is also the presence of "quotational layer" with numerous references and allusions as with his contemporaries and predecessors: O. E. Mandelstam, B. L. Pasternak, A. A. Block. All the spiritual wealth of culture of our country stood for Akhmatova, and she rightly felt itself to be heir to his fortune.

The Theme of Motherland in the works of Akhmatova, the attitude to the revolution

Could Not be reflected in the work of the dramatic events of the lifetime of the poet. Akhmatova, life and work which was held in difficult for our country period, embraced the 1917 revolution as catastrophe. The old country, in her opinion, was no more. The theme of Motherland in the works of Akhmatova, for example, in the book "Anno Domini". Section opening this published in the 1922 collection, called "After all". The entire book was taken as the epigraph line: "those fabulous years..." F. I. Tyutchev. The Motherland is no more for the poet.

However, for Akhmatova, the revolution is a payback for the sinful life of the past, retribution. Let the lyrical heroine and did not create evil itself, he can feel involved in a common fault, so Anna Andreyevna ready to share hard share of its people. Homeland in the works of Akhmatova obliged to atone.

Even the title of the book means "In the year of our Lord", suggests that the poet perceives as God's will his era. The use of historical Parallels and biblical motifs is one of the artistic ways to understand what is happening in Russia. They are increasingly resorting Akhmatova (for example, the poem "Cleopatra", "Dante", "Bible verses").

In the lyrics of this great poet "I" becomes "we". Anna Andreevna speaks on behalf of "many." Every hour not only this poet, but her contemporaries would be justified by the word of the poet.

These Are the main themes of Akhmatova's creative work, both eternal and typical for the era of the life of this poet. It is often compared to the other Marina Tsvetaeva. Both are today in the Canon of women's poetry. However, not only has a lot in common, but in many ways distinguish the works of Akhmatova and Tsvetaeva. An essay on this topic are often asked to write students. In fact, it is interesting to speculate about why it is almost impossible to confuse a poem written by Anna Akhmatova, a work created by Tsvetaeva. But that is another topic.
