Michail Jurjewitsch Lermontow

    October 3, 1814 – July 15, 1841

    Mikhail Lermontov, often called "the poet of the Caucasus," stands as the most significant Russian poet after Alexander Pushkin. His enduring influence on later Russian literature resonates through both his poetry and his prose. Lermontov's life, tragically cut short in a duel, mirrors that of Pushkin; strikingly, both poets explored fatal duel outcomes in their major works, where the protagonists emerged victorious.
