“Let him blame the poet
Mocking, crazy light,
Nobody will stop him
He won't hear my answer."

The “Hour of Poetry” was held at the Russian language courses at the Russian House in New Delhi. A teacher from Yakutsk, Evgenia Yadrikhinskaya, told Indian students about the life and work of the Russian poet, prose writer and artist Mikhail Lermontov.
The students watched with interest the presentation about his life and work, listened to V. Shebalin’s romance “The Golden Cloud Spent the Night,” and got acquainted with the poet’s drawings.
For a detailed analysis, Evgenia Yadrikhinskaya chose the lyrical poem “The Cliff,” written a few weeks before the poet’s death. After reading the poem and analyzing it, the teacher gave the opportunity to interpret the work. Everyone saw something different in him.
At the end of the lesson, homework was given: learn the poem “Cliff” by heart, with pleasure!

“In the anniversary year, we decided not only to tell about Lermontov where possible, but also to show it to other countries and peoples whose name we live and are proud of. Lermontov is a special poet for Russia. But we were surprised how here in India they received us, how they listened to us,” said Maria Fedorova, curator of the exhibition, head of the excursion department of the Tarkhany Museum.
