Alexander Ivanovich Herzen

About museum

Alexander Ivanovich Herzen — a Russian writer, publicist, educator and philosopher. The founder of uncensored (free) book publishing in the Russian Empire. Herzen's parents were the wealthy Russian landowner Ivan Alekseyevich Yakovlev, descended from the Moscow boyar Andrey Kobyla, and a German girl Henriette-Wilhelmina-Louisa Haag, the daughter of a minor official, a clerk in the government chamber in Stuttgart. Henriette-Wilhelmina-Louisa, at the age of sixteen, gave birth to a son, Alexander, out of wedlock. Since the parents' marriage was not formalized, the son received a surname invented by his father: Herzen — son of the 'heart' (von Herzen, from Ger. Herz, 'heart'). His father provided Herzen with a good home education, thanks to which he was fluent in English and German and developed an interest in the works of classical literature.

In 1829 Herzen entered Moscow University at the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics, where he quickly gained a reputation as a progressive-minded student. He graduated from the university in 1833 with a silver medal. However, his active civic stance and participation in student demonstrations led to his arrest in 1834. After nine months of investigation he was exiled to Vyatka. His return to Moscow became possible thanks to a chance meeting with the future Emperor Alexander II and the intercession of Vasily Zhukovsky in 1839.

After a brief period of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in 1847, following his father's death, Herzen inherited a considerable fortune. This allowed him to leave Russia permanently. Abroad he witnessed the revolutionary events of 1848–1849 in France. Disillusioned with the Western path, he began to develop the concept of 'Russian socialism', laying the foundations of the narodnik (populist) movement. In 1853, having suffered a personal tragedy — the deaths of his mother, his wife and his son — Herzen founded in London the Free Russian Printing House, which published critical works about Russia. He also published the almanac 'Polar Star' (from 1855) and the newspaper 'Kolokol' (from 1857). Herzen died of pneumonia in Paris on 9 (21) January 1870.
