Woe from Wit (Russian: Горе от ума, also translated as "The Woes of Wit", "Wit Works Woe", and so forth) is Alexander Griboyedov's comedy in verse, satirizing the society of post-Napoleonic Moscow, or, as a high official in the play styled it, "a pasquinade on Moscow."
The play, written in 1823 in the countryside and in Tiflis, was not passed by the censorship for the stage, and only portions of it were allowed to appear in an almanac for 1825. But it was read out by the author to "all Moscow" and to "all Petersburg" and circulated in innumerable copies, so it was as good as published in 1825; it was not, however, actually published until 1833, after the author's death, with significant cuts, and was not published in full until 1861.
The play was a compulsory work in Russian literature lessons in Soviet schools, and is still considered a golden classic in modern Russia and other Russian-speaking countries.
The play gave rise to numerous catchphrases in the Russian language, including the title itself. (wikipedia.org)


Александр Сергеевич Грибоедов родился (4) 15 января 1795 года в Москве. Он получил разностороннее домашнее образование, играл на музыкальных инструментах (фортепьяно, флейта), с детства знал иностранные языки: немецкий, английский, французский, итальянский. В 1806 году, в возрасте 11 лет, он становится студентом Московского университета, учится на философском факультете, затем на юридическом. В 1810 году получает диплом кандидата прав.
В 1818-1820 годах Грибоедов - в Персии, а с 1821 года он служит на Кавказе, в Тифлисе (Тбилиси), дипломатическим секретарем. В Тифлисе он начинает работать над комедией Горе от ума, затем для завершения работы берет отпуск и едет в Россию. К 1824 году комедия завершена. Светские салоны восприняли Горе от ума восторженно, критика же, наоборот, в штыки.
А.С. Грибоедов вошел в ряд великих русский и мировых драматургов как автор комедии Горе от ума, но этот ни единственное произведение Грибоедова. Он писал стихи, статьи, пьесы и был автором всего около 30 литературных и публицистических произведений.
(30 января) 11 февраля 1829 года в результате провокации персидских властей на посольство России нападает толпа религиозных фанатиков. Все, находившиеся в посольстве, были зверски убиты, в том числе и Александр Сергеевич Грибоедов. Тело поэта было перевезено в Тифлис и погребено на горе святого Давида.
