- Comments
- Russian poet, folklorist and ethnographer. The poetic legacy of Sadovnikov, who died in poverty and has never received wide recognition, is generally underrated. He has never received due credit even for his most famous poem, "Из-за острова на стрежень". Set to a popular folk melody this work about ataman Stenka Razin is widely considered to be part of Russian musical folklore.
