Somewhere in the world there is a poet whom millions of people know by heart, quote at weddings and funerals, teach to their children before the children can read, and treat as a kind of shared inner weather. He is, by general agreement, the greatest writer his language has produced. And almost no one outside that language has read him. For the English-speaking reader, Alexander Pushkin occupies roughly the place that Lord Byron occupies for a Russian: a famous name, a respectful nod, and a strange blank where the actual experience of the poetry ought to be. >Keywords: Pushkin, philosophy, poetry, Russian literature, wisdom, freedom, the meaning of life
