Osip Mandelstam |
|
|
Osip Mandelstam was born in 1891 and grew up in St Petersburg. With
Akhmatova and Gumilyov he formed the Acmeist movement. In 1938 he was
re-arrested and sentenced to five years' hard labour for
'counter-revolutionary activities', and died that winter, of 'heart
failure', in a freezing transit camp
in Siberia. |
