Культурная традиция в венецианских текстах русской литературы

Abstract

The paper deals with the process of forming “the language of description” of Venice in the Russian culture. Its foundations were laid at the beginning of the XIXth century. Works of artists and poets made their contribution into it. However the real blossom in elaborating the topic is connected with the first thirties of the XXth century. A special impact in the tradition development was made by the texts of A. Blok, A. Akhmatova, N. Gumiljov, B. Pasternak, with I. Brodski as a final contribution.
