Mikhail Rosenheim
Mikhail Pavlovich Rosenheim (Михаил Павлович Розенгейм, 31 July 1820, Saint Petersburg, Russian Empire, —19 March 1887, Saint Petersburg) was a Russian poet, editor (''Zanoza'', 1863-1865), publicist and translator. Rosenheim started writing poetry in the late 1830s, but thought little of it and debuted only in the mid-1850 (''Otechestvennye Zapiski'', ''Russky Vestnik''). in 1858 Rosehheim's first poetry collection came out and made him a well-known author. Initially a typical exponent of the Nekrasov-founded 'vice-flogging' trend in the Russian poetry, he was rather unpopular with the literary left, notably Nikolai Dobrolyubov, who mocked Rosenheim's 'safe' radicalism in his reviews and parodies.

Politics
Politics (from , ) is the set of activities that are associated with making decisions in groups, or other forms of power relations among individuals, such as the distribution of resources or status. The branch of social science that studies politics and government is referred to as political science. It may be used positively in the context of a "political solution" which is compromising and nonviolent, or descriptively as "the art or science of government", but also often carries a negative connotation.. The concept has been defined in various ways, and different approaches have fundamentally differing views on whether it should be used extensively or limitedly, empirically or normatively, and on whether conflict or co-operation is more essential to it. A variety of methods are deployed in politics, which include promoting one's own political views among people, negotiation with other political subjects, making laws, and exercising internal and external force, includ ...
