Bakhari

    0.01 sec.
Bakhari 

Old Russian professional storyteller. The creative activity of the bakhari was condemned as “diabolical” by the church. Nevertheless, their storytelling was a common phenomenon in the everyday life of the people and in the homes of princes and boyars. For example, there were storytellers at the courts of Ivan IV the Terrible and Mikhail Romanov and in the homes of the 18th-century nobility.
