Traveling is a special topic in Pushkin's biography: the chronicling of the poet's wanderings weaves into his biographical canvas. It is hard to tell how many inspired lines were born under the clatter of horse hooves and the rattle of wheels. And how many travel impressions later 'sprouted' into the living poetic fabric of Pushkin's masterpieces in the study... Truly, the muse of travel was benevolent to the poet.
The book "Pushkin Travels. From Moscow to Erzurum" consists of two parts: "Earthly Wanderings of the Poet" and "Traveling through Time and Space".
Remarkably, our first 'not allowed to travel' poet, Pushkin, who dreamed of 'foreign lands', seemed to have visited them after his earthly life. A genius is often granted foreknowledge. But even Pushkin, who predicted his all-Russian and European fame, could not have imagined that his heroes would 'speak' in almost all the languages of the world!
The great traveler Pushkin: his wanderings beyond time and earthly boundaries continue.
