Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes Boris Pasternak’s Poeziya (Poetry) from the cycle Neskuchny Sad. The cycle is the kind of a link between two poetic books of Boris Pasternak: Sestra moya– zhizn’ (My sister – Life) and Temy i variatsii (Themes and variations). We dwell in detail onthe comparison of this text with the poem Opredeleniye poezii (Definition of poetry) from thebook Sestra moya – zhizn’. We are mainly interested in the asemantic level of texts – theirsound and rhythmic organization. The analyzed structure allows us to trace the dynamicsof the images and the changes that took place in the poetic style of Boris Pasternak in the 1920s.
