About the one on whom all of Russian culture rests. We will tell you about his amazing origin—his great-grandfather was from Africa, he came to Russia with Peter the Great himself. We will talk about his love for Natasha Goncharova, about duels and exiles, about why he died in a duel, and why his poems are still memorized by every Russian schoolchild, while films are made based on his works.
