Summary/Abstract: In the year 2004 Inna Lisnianskaya created a cycle of poems Иерусалимская тетрадь (The Jerusalem Notebook). It consists of forty three poems. The title of the cycle, the place of its creation, opening and closing poems and dedication constitute on an aesthetic whole that is built on the megametaphor ME IS AN ECHO. The importance of this metaphor, which is the basic figure of the poetic language, arises from the process of interpretation, so is inherently subjective. By drawing attention to the issue of interpretation, cognitivism emphasizes the role subjectivization as the basis for semantic extensions, and conceptualization. Important role for the conceptualization of the analyzed cycle plays the closed composition. By repeating the sounds of different places and times the lyrical body sees itself as an echo of the spacetime. In this way, a metaphor ME IS AN ECHO becomes the primary metaphor of the cycle.
