description: A. K. Tolstoy was above all poet; but he also wrote a historical novel from the time of Ivan The Terrible, Prince Serebryani, which had a great success, partly because in it for the first time censorship had permitted fiction to deal with the half-mad Tsar who played the part of Louis XI. of the Russian Monarchy, but especially on account of its qualities as a historical novel.
