FYODOR SOLOGUB (real name Fyodor Kuzmich Teternikov, 1863-1927) was one of the most important poets of the Silver Age in Russian literature (the first two decades of the 20th century). A Symbolist, he authored a greatnumber of poems, and his best known novel was The Petty Demon. He was the first Russian author to introduce morbid, pessimistic elements into his prose, characteristic of fin de siecle literature; readers were both attracted and repulsed by his mesmerizing ideas of death and evil.
