Alexander Pushkin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin (June 6 1799–February 10 1837) was a Russian Romantic author who is considered to be the greatest Russian poet and the founder of modern Russian literature.Pushkin pioneered the use of vernacular speech in his poems and plays, creating a style of storytelling—mixing drama, romance, and satire—associated with Russian literature ever since and greatly influencing later Russian writers.
Born in Moscow, Pushkin published his first poem at the age of fifteen. In the early 1820s he clashed with the government, which sent him into exile in southern Russia. During exile, he wrote his most famous play, the drama Boris Godunov.
Pushkin and his wife Natalya Goncharova, whom he married in 1831, later became regulars of court society. In 1837, while falling into greater and greater debt amidst rumors that his wife had started conducting an affair, Pushkin challenged her alleged lover, Georges d'Anthès, to a duel. Pushkin was mortally wounded and died two days later.
Because of his liberal political views and influence on generations of Russian rebels, Pushkin was portrayed by Bolsheviks as an opponent to bourgeois literature and culture and a predecessor of Soviet literature and poetry. Tsarskoe Selo was renamed after him.
《叶甫盖尼·奥涅金》是俄国作曲家柴科夫斯基所谱曲的三幕歌剧。俄语脚本由作曲家和康斯坦丁·西罗夫斯基(К. С. Шиловский)基于俄国著名诗人亚历山大·普希金1830年发表的同名长篇诗文小说改编而成。该剧1879年在尼古莱·鲁宾斯坦指挥下首演于莫斯科马利剧院(Малый театр, Москва)。

Boris Godunov (drama)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Boris Godunov is a drama by Aleksandr Pushkin, written in 1825, published in 1831, but not approved for performance by the censor until 1866. Its subject is the Russian ruler, Boris Godunov, who reigned as Tsar from 1598 to 1605. The drama consists of 25 scenes and is written predominantly in blank verse.
Although revered among scholars, Boris Godunov never received a premiere in its original, uncensored form. Modest Mussorgsky based his famous opera on the drama, and Vsevolod Meyerhold attempted a staging of the play in the 1930s. Meyerhold commissioned Sergei Prokofiev to write incidental music for his production, but when Meyerhold abandoned his production under political pressure, the score was abandoned as well.
The world premiere of the uncensored Boris Godunov was given April 12, 2007, at Princeton University in the United States, in English translation. The production was based on Meyerhold's design and featured Prokofiev's music, together with supplemental music by Peter Westergaard.
