Answer
Acmeism, the literary movement Akhmatova was part of, emerged in Russia during the early 20th century as a reaction to Symbolism. Acmeists sought clarity, precision, and simplicity of poetic expression, emphasizing concrete imagery and the material world over abstract ideas and symbolism. Prominent Acmeists, including Akhmatova, Osip Mandelstam, and Nikolai Gumilyov, aimed to create poetry that was both visually vibrant and emotionally resonant.
