Nikolai Stepanovich Gumilev (1886-1921) was one of the central figures of the Silver Age, the founder of the Acmeist school in Russian poetry, a prose writer, playwright, translator, literary critic, traveler, and Africanist. He conducted two expeditions to Eastern and Northeastern Africa in 1909 and 1913. He was executed on August 26, 1921, based on fabricated charges of participation in the anti-Soviet conspiracy of the "Petrograd Combat Organization of Tagantsev." He was posthumously rehabilitated.
