The Manifesto on Unshakable Autocracy was issued by Tsar Alexander III of Russia on April 29, 1881 (O.S.), about two months after the assassination of his father, Alexander II of Russia.
 Influenced by, if not written by, Konstantin Pobedonostsev, the Procurator of the Holy Synod, the manifesto rejected the more liberal reforms of his father (and some of his father's ministers) in favor of "unshakable autocracy" which had been given to the tsars as a sacred duty from God.
 The document summed up Alexander's counter reform policies.
Constantine Bodin (Bulgarian: Константѝн Бо̀дин, "Konstantìn Bòdin" , Serbian: Константин Бодин/"Konstantin Bodin" ; 1072–1101) was the ruler of Duklja, from 1081 to 1101, succeeding his father, Mihailo ( 1050–1081).
 Born in peaceful times, when the Serbs were subjects of the Byzantine Empire, his father was in 1072 approached by Bulgarian nobility, who sought aid in their revolt against the Byzantines; Mihailo sent them Bodin, who was crowned Bulgarian Tsar under the name Peter III (Bulgarian: Петър ІІІ, "Petŭr III" , Serbian: Петар III/"Petar III" ) and joined the short-lived revolt, being captured the following year after initial success.
 He was freed in 1078, and upon the death of his father in 1081 he succeeded the throne.
 Having renewed his acknowledgement of Byzantine overlordship, he soon sided with their enemies, the Normans, which resulted in a Byzantine invasion and his capture.
 Although he quickly had himself freed, his reputation and influence waned.
 He was pushed aside by one of his governors and nephews, Vukan in Raška, who continued the struggle against the Byzantines.
The Path of Thunder is a ballet in three acts with libretto by Yuri Slonimsky, music by Gara Garayev and choreography by Konstantin Sergeyev.
 Inspired by eponymous novel of Peter Abrahams, the ballet tells the story of a forbidden love between a black teacher and a white girl.
 The ballet premiered at the Mariinsky Theatre (called S. M. Kirov Leningrad State Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet at the time) in Saint Petersburg (Leningrad at that time).
 Garayev used a soft, melodic music, which turns lyrical and passionate in the love scene, while the conflict with the girl's father and the other whites is accompanied by harsh, dissonant music.
 The lovers die in the course of conflict, but the people rise up against the racial prejudices towards them, leading themselves to the Path of Thunder, the way of liberation.
Konstantin Sokolsky (also spelled: Sokolski, Rus.
 Константин Сокольский, original name Konstantin Kudryavtsev, Константин Кудрявцев) Russian singer (7 December 1904- 12 May 1991).
 Sokolsky was born in Saint-Petersburg, Russia, but for most of his life lived in Riga, Latvia (his father came from Ludzas County, which is where the family moved to after the revolutionary turmoil of 1917 began in Saint-Petersburg).
Mikhail Semyonovich Shchepkin (Russian: Михаи́л Семёнович Ще́пкин , 17 November [O.S. 6 November] 1788 , the village Krasnoe, Oboyan county, Kursk Province — 11 August [O.S. 23 August] 1863 ) was the most famous Russian Empire actor of the 19th century.
 He is considered the "father" of realist acting in Russia and, via the influence of his student, Glikeriya Fedotova, a major influence on the development of the 'system' of Konstantin Stanislavski (who was born in the year in which Shchepkin died).
 Shchepkin's significance to the Theatre of Russia is comparable to that of David Garrick to the English theatre.
The Serapion Brothers (or Serapion Fraternity, Russian: Серапионовы Братья ) was a group of writers formed in Petrograd, Russian SFSR in 1921.
 The group was named after a literary group, "Die Serapionsbrüder" (The Serapion Brethren), to which German romantic author E.T.A. Hoffmann belonged and after which he named a collection of his tales.
 Its members included Nikolai Tikhonov, Veniamin Kaverin, Mikhail Zoshchenko, Victor Shklovsky, Vsevolod Ivanov, Elizaveta Polonskaya, Ilya Gruzdev, Mikhail Slonimsky, Lev Lunts, Vladimir Pozner, Nikolay Nikitin and Konstantin Fedin.
 The group formed during their studies at the seminars of Yuri Tynyanov, Yevgeni Zamyatin (whose 1922 essay "The Serapion Brethren" gives insight into the early style of several members), and Korney Chukovsky and the Petrogradsky Dom Iskusstv (Petrograd House of Arts).
 The group was officially organized at its first meeting on February 1, 1921, and "as long as their headquarters remained in the House of Arts, met regularly every Saturday."
