Woe from Wit

Alexander Sergeyevich Griboedov 1795—1829 — a talented poet, playwright, and outstanding Russian diplomat. He served as an ambassador in Persia and died there, heroically defending the building of the diplomatic mission during an attack by religious fanatics. His literary fame... came from the comedy «Woe from Wit», conceived as a satire on the aristocratic society of the early 19th century. The plot centers on the conflict between the progressive young Alexander Chatsky and the ossified metropolitan high society. And although the path to the theater stages was difficult for the play, it quickly became famous for quotes that firmly entered our lexicon.
