Belinsky, Vissarion

    0.03 sec.

Belinsky, Vissarion (Grigoryevich)

(born May 30, 1811, Sveaborg, Fin., Russian Empire—died May 26, 1848, St. Petersburg, Russia) Russian literary critic. Expelled from the University of Moscow in 1832, he worked as a journalist, making his reputation with critical articles that expounded nationalist doctrine. His argument that literature should express political and social ideas had a major impact on Soviet literary criticism, and he was often called the father of the Russian radical intelligentsia.
