Boris Alexandrovich Sadovskoy (born Sadovskiy; Борис Александрович Садовской, February 22, 1881, Ardatov, Nizhny Novgorod Governorate, Russian Empire, - April 3, 1952, Moscow, USSR) was a Russian poet, prosaic, literary critic of the Silver Age of Russian poetry. Despite starting as a member of the Russian Symbolist movement and actively contibyting to Vesy, Sadovskoy in his own poetry followed the tradition of Afanasy Fet, whom he admired and was an author of several books on. His second adopted trend was the patriarchal Russia' stylisations which often took a form of literary parodies and mistifications. After the 1917 Revolution, Sadovsky, a monarchist, refused to emigrate and, confined to a wheelchair, lived in isolation, his last book published in 1928.[1][2]
