The female line in Russian poetry. Before and after A. A. Akhmatova

The proposed book attempts to identify Akhmatova's orientation towards the discoveries of psychological depth in the poetry of Fyodor Tyutchev, as well as towards the psychological analysis of a woman's soul in the 'female line' of Russian poetry, represented by the names of Evdokia Rostopchina and Maria Lohvitskaya. For the first time, the significance of Akhmatova's achievements in the field of psychological portrayal of the lyrical character is analyzed for the development of the poetic voice of the 'Akhmatovites' (L. F. Kopylova, N. G. Lvova, V. M. Inber). Additionally, a characterization is given of the image of the lyrical heroine in Akhmatova's early poems, the role of Acmeism, and elements of its 'overcoming' in shaping her spiritual world.
