Subject
Pushkin's wedding
Date
Body
Meseems, in one of my posts to the List I wrongly said that Pushkin married Natalia Goncharov in April, 1831. Of course, their wedding took place on February 18, 1831 (a month after Delvig's death). In his Chronology of Pushkin's Life (Хронологическая канва биографии А. С. Пушкина) M. A. Tsyavlovski chastily skips almost three months after the poet's wedding. After February 18 the next entry is May 14. I looked at it and thought that "18" above was April, not February.

For my future biographer: my parents married on Pushkin's 170's birthday.
