In January 2015, an exhibition titled “Musician and Poet Needs Listeners, Readers” dedicated to the 220th anniversary of Alexander Sergeyevich Griboyedov (1795-1829) took place in the reading hall of the Manuscript Department of the Russian State Library. A lot of original documents from the collections of manuscripts relating to the life and work of a brilliant playwright, diplomat, poet and composer were displayed in this small exhibition. In addition to autographs and other documents from the archive of the writer (Fond 451) the numerous copies of his famous “The Woes of Wit” are of great interest as well. The exhibition is designed not only to show the most valuable materials, but also to convey as far as possible the atmosphere where Griboyedov lived and worked, to emphasize the charm of this outstanding personality in the history of the Russian literature.
