Abstract

In the article, it is made an attempt to trace the thematic development of the lyrics of Marina Tsvetaeva, to identify the main factors influencing this development. Early on, the most important factor was the reaction to the criticism that accelerated the transformation of the “child” topics to “the youth” ones. The next factors were the World War I, the Russian revolution, and the NEP which affected both the expansion of subjects (“Russian” theme) and the development of the moral issues in their various forms (debt and service vs. love and forgiveness). The third important factor was the reunion with her husband which temporarily sublimated the subject of Tsvetaeva’s poems, then led to an explosion of love poetry in 1923, but completely bled it by 1925. During the French emigration, the political and critical context gained new value, and not love, but death of loved ones gave more reasons for lyrical creativity.
