Russian poet Joseph Brodsky (1940-1996) was inspired by Donne and wrote in 1963 Great Elegy to John Donne under the influence of his metaphysical approach.

Baroque influence under social realist Soviet literary rule as an anti-mainstream instrument in Brodsky's poetry is also studied. The aim of the study is questioning why new artistic trends disposed to stand against or justify themselves by previous periods and genres in the context of intertextuality. Key Words: Baroque, Elegy, Joseph Brodsky, John Donne, intertextuality.
