Delvig (Äåëüâèã) Anton Antonovich
(1798–1831)
Anton Antonovich Delvig was a Russian poet and journalist who studied in the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum together with Alexander Pushkin, with whom he became a close friend. Pushkin dedicated a poem ('O, Delvig') to him. In his poetry, Delvig upheld the waning traditions of Russian Neoclassicism. He became interested in Russian folklore and wrote numerous imitations of folk songs. Some of these were put to music by the composers Alexander Alyabyev and Mikhail Glinka. As a journalist, Delvig edited the periodical Northern Flowers (1825–1831), in which Pushkin was a regular contributor. In 1830–1831, he co-edited with Pushkin the Literary Gazette (1830–1831), which was banned by the Tsarist government after information laid by Faddei Bulgarin.
