Abstract
The paper attempts to give an integrated interpretation of a well-known poem by Anna Akhmatova through examining the system of motifs and the imagery employed by the poet. The interpretation is focused on the Saint-Petersburg topos as an elaborate framework of opposing artistic notions and as a key concept, around which the semantic structure of the text is arranged in its entirety.
