Tatyana Savina on Griboyedov, Secret Societies and “Woe from Wit”
Some very interesting reflections on Griboyedov and secret societies: was he a Decembrist, and what can be said of his attitude to the clash between old and new, as reflected in "Woe from Wit"? They come from a series of talks by Tatyana Savina on Alexander Sergeyevich Griboyedov, posted on a little-known YouTube channel. I consider it excellent material, and quite undeservedly neglected: please listen to Savina instead of Chernigovskaya.
