What are the two main periods of Akhmatova's literary work separated by?
A war
A personal tragedy
A decade of silence
Her emigration
Answer
The two main periods of Akhmatova's literary work are separated by a decade of silence, a period of time when she did not publish any new works. This period was caused by a combination of factors, including censorship from Soviet authorities, the trauma of the Great Purge, and her personal grief over the deaths of close friends and family members.
