ANNA AKHMATOVA
The poet Anna Akhmatova was born Anna Gorenko in Odessa, in the Ukraine, in 1889; she later changed her name to Akhmtova. In 1910 she married the important Russian poet and theorist Nikolai Gumilyov. Shortly afterwards Akhmatova began publishing her own poetry; together with Gumilyov, she became a central figure in the Acmeist movement. Acmeism which had its parallels in the writings of T. E. Hulme in England and the development of Imagism stressed clarity and craft as antidotes to the overly loose style and vague language of late nineteenth century poetry in Russia. The Russian Revolution was to dramatically affect their lives. Although they had recently divorced, Akhmatova was was nevertheless stunned by the execution of her friend and former partner Gumilyev in 1921 by the Bolsheviks, who claimed that he had betrayed the Revolution. In large measure to drive her into silence, their son Lev Gumilyov was imprisoned in 1938, and he remained in prison and prison camps until the death of Stalin and the thaw in the Cold War made his release possible in 1956. Meanwhile, Akhmatova had a second marraige and then a third; her third husband, Nikolai Punin, was imprisoned in 1949 and thereafter died in 1953 in a Siberian prison camp. Her writing was banned, unofficially, from 1925 to 1940, and then was banned again after World War Two was concluded. Unlike many of her literary contemporaries, though, she never considered flight into exile. The poet was awarded and honorary doctorate by Oxford University in 1965. Akhmatova died in 1966 in Leningrad.

A COLLECTION OF POEMS
BY
A NNA A KHMATOVA
(Born 1889, Died 1966)
(Translations from Russian)
Anna Akhmatova is the literary pseudonym of Anna Andreevna Gorenko. Her first husband was Gumilev, and she too became one of the leading Acmeist poets. Her second book of poems, Beads (1914), brought her fame. Her earlier manner, intimate and colloquial, gradually gave way to a more classical severity, apparent in her volumes The Whte Flock (1917) and Anno Domini MCMXXI (1922). The growing distaste which the personal and religious elements in her poetry aroused in Soviet officialdom forced her thereafter into long periiods of silence; and the poetic masterpieces of her later years, A Poem without a Hero and Requiem, were published abroad.

    Anna Akhmatova (1889 - 1966)
    Born Anna Gorenko, to an upper-class family outside of St. Petersburg, Anna was interested in writing from a young age. In order not to embarrass her family's name, Anna took her great-grandmother's last name as a pen name and began publishing her work as "Anna Andreevna Akhmatova."
    In 1910, Akhmatova married Nikolai Gumilev, a poet who founded the Russian literary (Acmeism) movement. When Gumilev left on a long journey to Abyssinia, Akhmatova stayed behind, writing many poems that became part of her first book, in 1912. Akhmatova's work caught on, particularly with intellectuals, and was popular throughout the city. She often read her at a St. Petersberg cabaret, called The Stray Dog Cafe . Akhmatova also gave birth to a son, Lev, who was raised by his paternal grandfather, despite Akhmatova's protests. The grandfather, who disliked Akhmatova, allowed holiday and summer visits only.
    In 1914, Akhmatova published her second book, again very successful. Despite her success in poetry, Akhmatova's marriage was crumbling after multiple infidelties and professional jealousy on the part of her husband. World War I had just begun in Europe, and Germany swiftly declared war on Russia. The war would greatly influence Akhmatova's next book of poetry, published in 1917. In 1917, the Bolshevik Revolution took place, altering Russia forever.
    Akhmatova published her fifth book of poetry in 1921, the year the Civil War ended, leaving the Bolsheviks in control of Russia's government. Akhmatova divorced Gumilev and married again, this time to Vol'demar Shileiko. Suffering from intense poverty, the couple often had little to eat, few possessions, and often went without fuel. Several poems describing these times appear in her fifth book.

    Acmeism
    The movement of Acmeism began in the early twentieth century, partially as a reaction against symbolism. In defiance of the older poets whose innovations had changed poetry in Russia, Nikolai Gumilev Anna Akhmatova , and Osip Mandel'shtam began to apply their own ideas to the art of building poetry. They wanted to bring the art form back down to earth. They did not believe poetry was tied to mysticism and thought that poets (who were talented human beings rather than the prophets of symbolism) should express ideas about culture, the word, and human existence. Time was transparent to the acmeists. The past, present and future met in the lines of their poetry. The Hellenistic age encroached on twentieth century Russia, and the acmeists continued the symbolist tradition of incorporating mythical and biblical figures into their verses.
    Nikolai Gumilev
    Nikolai Gumilev (1886-1921) was a poet and literary theorist and critic. He and Anna Akhmatova had a tumultuous marriage from 1910 to 1918. Many of his poems were influenced by his trips to Africa, where he was captivated by the landscape and wildlife. It is said that he wrote the poem

    Anna Akhmatova (1889-1966) Born in Odessa, Akhmatova spent her first sixteen years at the imperial summer residence at Tsarskoe Selo near St. Petersburg. She went to law school in Kiev, and married the poet-critic Nikolai Gumilev in 1910. In Paris in 1911, the unknown painter Modigliani did sixteen portrait drawings of her. Her second book of poems, Rosary (1914), brought her fame. At this time, along with her husband and the poet Osip Mandelstamm, she became associated with Acmeism, a movement which strove for clarity after the vagueness of the then-fashionable symbolism. She was divorced in 1918. Three years later Gumilev was executed. After the publication of Anno Domini
    Lot's Wife The just man followed then his angel guide
    Where he strode on the black highway, hulking and bright;
    But a wild grief in his wife's bosom cried,
    Look back, it is not too late for a last sight Of the red towers of your native Sodom, the square
    Where once you sang, the gardens you shall mourn,
    And the tall house with empty windows where
    You loved your husband and your babes were born.

    http://www.odessit.com/namegal/english/ahmatova.htm
    Akhmatova, Anna,
    pseudonym of ANNA ANDREYEVNA GORENKO (b. June 11 [June 23, New Style], 1889, Bolshoy Fontan, near Odessa, Ukraine, Russian Empired. March 5, 1966, Domodedovo, near Moscow), Russian poet recognized at her death as the greatest woman poet in Russian literature. Akhmatova began writing verse at the age of 11 and at 21 became a member of the Acmeist group of poets, whose leader, Nikolay Gumilyov, she married in 1910 but divorced in 1918. The Acmeists, through their periodical Apollon ("Apollo"; 1909-17), rejected the esoteric vagueness and affectations of Symbolism and sought to replace them with "beautiful clarity," compactness, simplicity, and perfection of formall qualities in which Akhmatova excelled from the outset. Her first collections, Vecher (1912; "Evening") and Chyotki (1914; "Rosary"), especially the latter, brought her fame. While exemplifying the best kind of personal or even confessional poetry, they achieve a universal appeal deriving from their artistic and emotional integrity. Akhmatova's principal motif is love, mainly frustrated and tragic love, expressed with an intensely feminine accent and inflection entirely her own. In August 1946, however, she was harshly denounced by the Central Committee of the Communist Party for her "eroticism, mysticism, and political indifference." Her poetry was castigated as "alien to the Soviet people," and she was again described as a "harlot-nun," this time by none other than Andrey Zhdanov, Politburo member and the director of Stalin's program of cultural restriction. She was expelled from the Union of Soviet Writers; an unreleased book of her poems, already in print, was destroyed; and none of her work appeared in print for three years.

    Anna Andreevna Akhmatova
    (Real name: Anna Andreevna Gorenko) (1889 - 1966) The Russian Soviet poet Anna Andreevna Gorenko was born on June 11th, 1889 near Odessa, in Bolshoy Fontan. While still very young, she was taken to Tsarskoe Selo, which later came to be called the city of Pushkin. She lived there until the age of 16, and it is there that she composed some of her first poetry. She later graduated from the Fundukleevsky Institute in Kiev, and it is here that her childhood romance with former Tsarskoe Selo schoolmate Nikolai Gumilevi finally culminated in marriage. During this time Anna had already written about 200 poems, some of which were selected for publication in her first book in 1912. The book, which was entitiled "Evening," brought her public recognition as well as critical praise. In 1914, Akmatova's second book, entitled "Rosary," was published. These first two compilations primarily contained romantic poems. When reading these poems, you can see Akhmatova's distinguished use of dramatic style and heartfelt emotional expression.

    Anna Akhmatova
    Akhmatova, Anna, pseudonym of Anna Andreevna Gorenko (1889-1966) Russian poetess, born in Odessa into the family of a naval officer. She started to write very early to ultimate horror of her parents; her father told her not to shame the family name by becoming a “decadent poetess”. She chose the name of her great-grandmother as a literary pseudonym not to embarrass the family. For some time she studied at law school in Kiev. In 1910, she married Nicolai Gumilev (1886-1921), himself a poet and critic, who at first considerably influenced her style. They spent the spring of 1910, their honeymoon, in Paris, where Anna met the Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) and fell in love with him. Summer of 1911 she spent with Modigliani in Paris. Under the influence of this love affair she wrote many lyrical poems, many of which formed up her first book, Evening The same year that her first book was published, 1912, her son Lev Gumilev (1912-92) was born. He would become an outstanding historian, geographer, and philosopher. But meanwhile his father put the child under supervision of his own mother, who disliked Anna. Akhmatova tried to protest the situation, but Nicolai supported his family; Anna visited her son during holidays and summer. She wrote that she ‘was a bad mother’, that “motherhood is a bright torture. I was not worthy of it.” The book Evening made Akhmatova a very popular poetess, and her second book
