Russian Literature
Though you may not speak Russian, you are likely already
familiar with either some famous Russian authors or famous
Russian literature. Many people have heard of
Russia’s famous poet Alexander Pushkin while others may be
familiar with folklore stories which have been translated into a
number of other languages. Russia produced very little
literature before the 19th century but after this period Russia
entered a golden age culturally which is clearly reflected in
her art, architecture, music and literature. This was the time
when Pushkin came to the fore as a great poet amongst other
literary contemporaries such as the novelists Leo Tolstoy and
Fyodor Dostoevsky. Pushkin is credited with developing the
literary form of Russian, giving it more nuances and augmenting
the Russian lexicon to a large degree. Many would say that
Puskin laid the groundwork for modern Russian literature.
