The life of this Russian poetess is inseparably linked withthe fate of her country. According to her poems, it is easy to see how the loop of the totalitarian regime was tightened and horror was more and more aggravated. It was in these terrible years that the poem was created, where Anna Akhmatova was opened, - "Requiem". Analysis of this work must begin with when it was written. From 1935 to 1940. It took us six whole years to finish the poem, and every year, month and day were filled with sorrow and suffering.
The poem consists of diverse chapters, and each of thethey carry their idea. There is also an epigraph, which Akhmatova anticipates with "Requiem". An analysis of these few lines reveals why Anna abandoned the idea of emigration from Russia. The words "I was with my people, where my people, unfortunately, was" in a genius way describe the tragedy of the epoch. It is interesting that the epigraph was written twenty-one years after the poem, in 1961, after the death of the "Father of Nations".
The chapter "Instead of the Preface" also dates from 1957year. The poet considered that for the new generation, who did not see the horrors of the "Yezhovschina" and the terror of the times of Beria, the narrative remains incomprehensible. The son of Anna, Lev Gumilev, was arrested three times during these years. But Akhmatova is not talking about her personal grief. "Requiem", the analysis of which must be carried out in order to reveal the deep layers of the poetics of those years, narrates about the grief "to which the hundred-million people scream".
Akhmatova in strong, measured, like humthe funeral ringing, the lines draw a portrait of the whole of the Soviet Union: countless mothers, wives, sisters and brides standing in lines to the prison windows to convey to their loved ones simple snacks and warm clothes.
As well as the "Requiem" of the geniuscomposer, the poem had a customer. The chapter "Initiation" is written in prose. The reader will find out that this customer is a "woman with blue lips," standing in line with Akhmatova to the window in the Leningrad Crosses. "Dedication" and "Introduction" once again underscore the amount of repressions that have engulfed the country: "Where are the unwilling friends now ... of the fugitive years?". The next ten chapters, which have the names "Verdict", "To Death" and "Crucifixion", once again emphasize that she wanted to create Akhmatova "Requiem". The analysis of the funeral service echoes the Passion of Christ and the torment of the mother - any mother.
"Epilogue", which ends the work,very significant. There, the poet once again remembers the countless women, together with her past in all circles of hell, and gives in some way a lyrical will: "And if someday in this country a monument will be conceived for me ... [let it be put in front of the prison" Crosses "], where I stood for three hundred hours and where the bolt was not opened for me. " The analysis of Akhmatova's verses, whose works have not been written on paper for a long time (because they could be planted for them), but only learned by heart, which were published in full only during perestroika, tells us that until the will of the poetess is fulfilled, and the monument She will not be exalted at the "Crosses", the shadow of totalitarianism will hang over the country.
