Ivan Timofeevich Kokorev
Ivan Timofeevich Kokorev ( Russian Иван Тимофеевич Кокорев) (September 6, 1825 - June 14, 1853) was a Russian writer. The son of a freed serf, Kokorev's stories and essays began appearing in the 1840s, but he did not become well known until he began his association with the journal '' Moskvityanin'' in 1849. His stories "Sibirka" (1847) and "Savvushka" (1852) were successful, but he is best remembered for his essays collected under the title ''Moskva sorokovykh godov'' ('Moscow of the ighteenforties'); the collection ''Ocherki i rasskazy'' ('Essays and stories') came out posthumously in 1857. He was considered one of the "Moscow patriots" and inveighed against the introduction of foreign words and customs.
