MEREJKOVSKY (or MEREZHKOVSKIY), DMITRI SERGYEEVICH (1865 ) ,
Russian
  novelist and critic, was born at St
Petersburg
  in 1865. His trilogy of historical romances, collectively entitled Christ and Antichrist, has been translated into many European languages, notably
English
  and French. It comprises Smert Bogov (Eng. trans. " The Death of the Gods," London, 1901), the central figure in which is
Julian
  the Apostate; Voskresenie Bogi (" The Forerunner," London, 1902), which describes the
life
  and times of Leonardo da Vinci; and Antikhrist: Petr i Aleksyey (" Peter and Alexis," London, 1905), which is based on the tragic story of the relations between Peter the
Great
  and his son. The
influence
  of Sienkiewicz can be traced in many of Merejkovsky's writings, which includecritical studies of Pliny the Younger, Calderon, Montaigne,
Ibsen
 , Tolstoy (Tolstoy as Man and Artist, London, 1902), and of Gorki and other
Russian
  writers. Merejkovsky married Zinaida Nikolaevna, known in
Russia
  for her poems, essays and short stories written under the pseudonym of Zinaida Hippius (or Gippius); her collected poems (1889-19o3) were published in Moscow in 1904.
