One hundred eighty years have passed since the life of the great Russian poet A. S. Pushkin was cut short in a duel. But as he predicted in his poem: "No, all of me won't die -- In a holy lyre -- The soul will survive and will escape decay" Thus endures an inexorable desire, however elusive, to savor the authentic beauty of Pushkin's poesy within the realm of another tongue whose linguistic richness lends credence to these aspirations.
