Peter and Paul. The training period for boys was eight years. Having graduated from this school, Fedor three years as a student of a pharmacist washed the bottles and rubbed powders. This made it possible to get to the place of the pharmacist at the University of Moscow. Perhaps such a choice of specialty was influenced by the early death of his father.

The descendants will forget everything that Fyodor Bogdanovich Miller did, and this unexplored rhyme will remain in the history of Russian poetry and literature forever. But we will continue the story of the poet’s life. The authors of the authors of the magazine Moskvityan, published by the historian and publicist Mikhail Pogodin, included many outstanding people of that time, for example, the poet and literary critic Apollo Grigoryev, writer Dmitry Grigorovich, poets Lev Mei and Yakov Polonsky, Slavist Vladimir Dal and others.

Here is one of them, which is the translation of the poems by Henry Heine and laid to the music by Peter Bulakhov: full, why are you, lonely tear, you will fog my eyes? Didn't the time of the distant wounds of the last love smoothed out the time? Time smoothed them out, the disturbing heart hid them in their bowels, - there, as in the grave, their place is reliable, you do not grind them there.

Their heart hid them; But the memory is annoying as a shrine; Know, therefore, sadness is an untreated soul. In the year, “as a gift to young readers”, the magazine was organized by the edition of the Almanac “Hotel”, which published works by historian Ivan Dmitrievich Belyaev, Fyodor Bogdanovich Miller himself, the master of the Russian language and literature of Vasily Ivanovich Krasov, memoir of Tatyana Petrovna Passek and other authors.

Miller did not punish, and Danilov, despite the assurances that Volinado is his surname, written on the contrary, sent to a two -year link to the Caucasus. More his last name in the magazine did not appear.

The popularity of the publication can be judged by the authors, among whom were the poet player Boris Almazov, scientist Vladimir Dal, writer Alexander Levitov, publicist Tikhon Gerolds under the pseudonym Fru Frue, poet and journalist Dmitry Minaev; Anton Chekhov gave his early stories to his entertainment. In one of them, in the story “Before the Wedding”, Anton Chekhov, he brought the hero who “loves more than anything else in the world, the“ Entertainment ”magazine and boots with a creak, but most of all himself.” The financial situation of the magazine under the Miller always remained difficult, there was not enough money to attract the authors.

Is it not about that satirical poems dated to the year and starting with the words: wherever you look, only one deception, the neighbor sharpen your teeth on a strange pocket.
