Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Context_1 : Konstantin Dmitriyevich Balmont (Russian: Константи́н Дми́триевич Бальмо́нт ; ] ; 15 June [O.S. 3 June] 1867 – 23 December 1942) was a Russian symbolist poet and translator. He was one of the major figures of the Silver Age of Russian Poetry. Context_2 : Mirra Lokhvitskaya (Russian: Ми́рра Ло́хвицкая ; born Maria Alexandrovna Lokhvitskaya – Russian: Мари́я Алекса́ндровна Ло́хвицкая ; November 19, 1869 – August 27, 1905) was a Russian poet who rose to fame in the late 1890s. In her short lifetime Lokhvitskaya published five books of poetry, the first and the last of which received the most coveted Russian literary award of the day, the Pushkin Prize. Due to the flamboyantly erotic sensuality of her works, Lokhvitskaya was regarded as the "Russian Sappho" by her contemporaries, which did not correspond with her conservative life style of dedicated wife and mother of five sons. Forgotten in Soviet times, in the late 20th century Lokhvitskaya's legacy was reassessed and she came to be regarded as one of the most original and influential voices of the Silver Age of Russian Poetry and the first in the line of modern Russian women poets who paved the way for Anna Akhmatova and Marina Tsvetaeva. Context_3 : Mikhail Alekseevich Kuzmin (Russian: Михаи́л Алексе́евич Кузми́н ) (October 18 [O.S.

The term was first used by Mikhail Epshtein, who coined it in 1981 and made it public in the Soviet magazine "Voprosy Literatury" in 1983; see below his "Theses on Metarealism and Conceptualism" from 1983 and the following years  Also: Third Wave: The New Russian Poetry.

Context_6 : Dmitry Sergeyevich Merezhkovsky (Russian: Дми́трий Серге́евич Мережко́вский ; ] ; 14 August [O.S. 2 August] 1866 – December 9, 1941) was a Russian novelist, poet, religious thinker, and literary critic. A seminal figure of the Silver Age of Russian Poetry, regarded as a co-founder of the Symbolist movement, Merezhkovsky – with his poet wife Zinaida Gippius – was twice forced into political exile. During his second exile (1918–1941) he continued publishing successful novels and gained recognition as a critic of the Soviet Union. Known both as a self-styled religious prophet with his own slant on apocalyptic Christianity, and as the author of philosophical historical novels which combined fervent idealism with literary innovation, Merezhkovsky was nine times a nominee for the Nobel Prize in literature, which he came closest to winning in 1933. Context_7 : Benedikt Konstantinovich Livshits (Russian: Бенеди́кт Константи́нович Ли́вшиц , 24 December 1886 (Old Style)/6 January 1887 (New Style) – 21 September 1938) was a poet and writer of the Silver Age of Russian Poetry, a French–Russian poetry translator. Context_8 : Silver Age is a term traditionally applied by Russian philologists to the last decade of the 19th century and first two or three decades of the 20th century. It was an exceptionally creative period in the history of Russian poetry, on par with the Golden Age a century earlier. The term "Silver Age" was first suggested by philosopher Nikolai Berdyaev, but it only became customary to refer thus to this era in literature in the 1960s. In the Western world other terms, including "Fin de siècle" and "Belle Époque", are somewhat more popular. Context_9 : Russian literature refers to the literature of Russia and its émigrés and to the Russian-language literature of several independent nations once a part of what was historically Rus', the Russian Empire or the Soviet Union. The roots of Russian literature can be traced to the Middle Ages, when epics and chronicles in Old Russian were composed. By the Age of Enlightenment, literature had grown in importance, and from the early 1830s, Russian literature underwent an astounding golden age in poetry, prose and drama. Romanticism permitted a flowering of poetic talent: Vasily Zhukovsky and later his protégé Alexander Pushkin came to the fore. Prose was flourishing as well. The first great Russian novelist was Nikolai Gogol. Then came Ivan Turgenev, who mastered both short stories and novels. Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoyevsky soon became internationally renowned. In the second half of the century Anton Chekhov excelled in short stories and became a leading dramatist. The beginning of the 20th century ranks as the Silver Age of Russian poetry. The poets most often associated with the "Silver Age" are Konstantin Balmont, Valery Bryusov, Alexander Blok, Anna Akhmatova, Nikolay Gumilyov, Osip Mandelstam, Sergei Yesenin, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Marina Tsvetaeva and Boris Pasternak. This era produced some first-rate novelists and short-story writers, such as Aleksandr Kuprin, Nobel Prize winner Ivan Bunin, Leonid Andreyev, Fyodor Sologub, Aleksey Remizov, Yevgeny Zamyatin, Dmitry Merezhkovsky and Andrei Bely. Context_10 : Boris Alexandrovich Sadovskoy (born Sadovskiy; Борис Александрович Садовской, February 22, 1881, Ardatov, Nizhny Novgorod Governorate, Russian Empire, - April 3, 1952, Moscow, USSR) was a Russian poet, prosaic, literary critic of the Silver Age of Russian poetry. Despite starting as a member of the Russian Symbolist movement and actively contributing to "Vesy", Sadovskoy in his own poetry followed the tradition of Afanasy Fet, whom he admired and wrote several books about. His second adopted trend was the patriarchal Russia' stylisations which often took a form of literary parodies and mistifications. After the 1917 Revolution, Sadovsky, a monarchist, refused to emigrate and, becoming a wheelchair-user, lived in isolation, his last book published in 1928. fact_1 : Yury Yurkun (September 17, 1895 - September 20, 1938) was a Russian writer and painter, lover of poet Mikhail Kuzmin. fact_2 : Mikhail Alekseevich Kuzmin (Russian: Михаи́л Алексе́евич Кузми́н ) (October 18 [O.S.
