Definitive biography of the incomparable soldier, politician, lover and first modern European by Emil Ludwig.

What caught my attention is, that Napoleon is considered the first modern European !!

Looking forward to read this masterpiece. 📖 📕

Napoleon went forth to seek Virtue but, since she was not to be found, he got power.

4. Aleksey Maximovich Gorky (1868-1936) was born in Nizhny Navgorad and Gorky was not his real family name. His real family name was Pishkov. He adopted the pseudonym Gorky in 1892.

Trivia about Russian Literature

In order to break the literary tradition, Valery Brusov in his anthology "Russian Symbolists" published one line poetry- "Oh, close your pale legs...". He achieved his goal and became scandalously famous.

3. Anna Akhmatova and Nikolai Gumilyov married in 1910 and divorced in 1918. Anna Akhmatova said about Gumilyov "He believes in Symbolism, as people believe in the God." They were one of the famous couple from 20th century Russian silver age.

@sincere_1keve @JoshPhillipsPhD Haha. I was waiting for this kind of reply. Do you really think one can know everything about one particular field? Did you hear the word "specialization"?

Юноша бледный со взором горящим,
Ныне даю я тебе три завета.
Первый прими: не живи настоящим,
Только грядущее — область поэта.
Помни второй: никому не сочувствуй,
Сам же себя полюби беспредельно.
Третий храни: поклоняйся искусству,
Только ему, безраздельно, бесцельно.

@allontanarsio Since I learnt Russian, so I would it's the most lyrical. The words are formed with lots of suffix, prefix, in fix so many words are formed with the same root. And poetries are lyrical and pleasant to ear.

@megha_lilly Especially last few chapters simply feel out of a feature film. What a masterpiece !! So many deep thoughts such as God, morality, state, ethics, love, goodness etc have been debated...

[Russian Literature @ruslitra]

Along with this, I have also been reading poetries, translating from Russian into Hindi. Realising huge impact of Pushkin not only in the composition but also the way of life of artists. Such as Essay of Merezhkovsky (Pushkin), Brusov (The fate of Pushkin) etc.

It's have been one month since the account is silent. I have been on a massive reading project i.e. Reading the dictionary compiled by Sergey Ozhikov. I have started reading the words and it's fascinating to read the dictionary, as one can find words from various themes.

Любовь

Когда я тебя в первый раз встретил,
не помнит бедная память:
утром ли то было, днем ли,
вечером или поздней ночью.
Только помню бледноватые щеки,
серые глаза под темными бровями
и синий ворот у смуглой шеи,
и кажется мне, что я видел это в раннем детстве,
хотя и старше тебя я многим.

Михаил Кузмин (1872-1936)
