Griboedov was born in Moscow in a wealthy, well-born family. His ancestor, Jan Grzybowski (Polish. Jan Grzybowski), at the beginning of the XVII century, moved from Poland to Russia.
Griboedov is known for his brilliantly rhymed play “Woe from Wit” (1824), which is still quite often staged in Russian theaters. She was the source of numerous catch phrases.
Это на русском
Грибоедов родился в Москве, в обеспеченной родовитой семье. Его предок, Ян Гржибовский (польск. Jan Grzybowski), в начале XVII века переселился из Польши в Россию.
Грибоедов известен благодаря блестяще рифмованной пьесе «Горе от ума» (1824), которую до сих пор весьма часто ставят в театрах России. Она послужила источником многочисленных крылатых фраз.
