Persecuted but not exiled

Fate of the Decembrist brothers Bobrishchev-Pushkins

How did the Decembrists live after their political and civil death? What kind of people were they? And what was the message of their rebellion? V. Kolesnikova tells about their everyday life in Petropavlavskii Ravelin, in camp, and later in exile. In all these places they continued intense spiritual and intellectual life: philosophical debates, public speeches, reading, writing, and playing music. The author concentrates on Pavel and Nikolai Bobrishchev-Pushkin, their lives and writings. The life in prison (ostrog) is described in detail: the code of life accepted by Decembrists, daily schedule, details of everyday life, portraits of less well known Decembrists. The book is based on personal documents from local Siberian archives and many of them are published for the first time.
