Ivan Aleksandrovich Nabokov (Russian: Иван Александрович Набоков) (11 March 1787 – 21 April 1852) was a Russian Adjutant general and general of infantry prominent during the Napoleonic wars.
He distinguished himself at Borodino (for this battle he was awarded with Order of St. Anna of 2nd degree), Lützen (was awarded with Order of St. Vladimir of 3rd degree), Bautzen, Kulm, Leipzig and other engagements.
On 15 September 1814 he was elevated to Major General for the prowess in the Battle of Kulm and became the chief of Sevsky Infantry Regiment (September 28). With this regiment he took part in the battles of Bar-sur-Aube, Laon, Craonne, Arcis-sur-Aube, in which he was sustained a head wound. For the Battle of Arcis-sur-Aube he received the Order of St. Anna of 1st degree.
I can't but mention a prominent actress of our time Maria Aronova, who was born today. Most of all I like her performings in the theatre. It seems to me that she is a woman of great talent. So, my congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteIn 2011, Yelchin portrayed Charley Brewster in the remake of Fright Night, directed by Craig Gillespie, starred in the romantic drama Like Crazy, and voiced Clumsy Smurf in the film adaptation of The Smurfs. He provided the voice for the "Albino Pirate" character in the animated film, The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists (released in North America as The Pirates! Band of Misfits) (2012).
ReplyDeleteou I like Aronova's talent very mush! She is very interesting, vivid, extraodinary and emotional not only the theatre but cinema too!
ReplyDeleteI can add that Ivan Nabokov died 21 April 1852 in Saint Petersburg and was buried in the Peter and Paul Fortress, near Peter and Paul Cathedral. His brother Nikolay was a progenitor of the novelist Vladimir Nabokov.
