Gorchakov was educated at the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum, where he had the poet Alexander Pushkin as a school-fellow. Pushkin published his first poem at the age of fifteen, and was widely recognized by the literary establishment by the time of his graduation from the Imperial Lyceum in Tsarskoe Selo.

  • @escapism4life Thank you, I totally agree

  • @4EVERMYSERENITY No pushkin is fully black,,,,he is from Eritrea,,,,,and there is no doubt about that,,,he was adopted by a russian tsar family,,,,,this is the truth ,,,,anyone denying this is a fraud and a fake,,,,Period!

  • PUSHKIN WAS BLACK DAMN WHITE PEOPLE LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING

  • @NomadSpirit555 He is, those who state Pushkin was only a little black because of his grandfather is wrong. His paternal grandparents were both black and history should not forget that. Yes it should not matter; because we are who we are, but in the same instance, we should not forget his heritage and what he did for the russian culture and language. It's because of a black man that russians speak the way they do today.

  • I am proud of him

  • do u guys know that pushkin was originally from east Africa country of brave called Eritrea.his grand father is from Eritrea.There is statues of him in the capital city Asmara.

  • no doubt you can see pushkins 'blk' traits. its not my theory i might add its that of racist 'whites' who made this thing of race to begin with. i dont even believe in race. it just shows how silly this gets when we listen to traditional thinking. thanks for that comment

  • obama,even though he is mixed, in society, even russian society he is black. if he had more of his mothers genes it would be hard to tell if he was really black. so in the eyes of geneticist pushkin was black because he had a black ancestor not far away. this psoes a problem as many russians have blakc traits but because of how genetics works it quite difficult to pick it up in the physical. u need 2 do tests.

  • @SletaEkaterina i figure someone would say that. so when is a black person black and a white pesron white, a yellow person yellow. a red person red etc? remember i am saying he is black because this is what genticist have done when classifying race. if you have a drop of black blood you are considered black. further if your genetic trait of the black is stronger than the white your trait will obviouslybe considered blk. obama is considered the first black president.
