Raevsky, analyzing books dedicated to his life, to get acquainted with the history of the poems. The life-tragedy of the V.F. Raevskogo is that he is, sentenced by a military court to death for free-thinking, spent five years in the castle dungeons, awaiting execution, and after its cancellation — more than forty years in Siberian exile.
