Cherubina de Gabriak
Cherubina de Gabriak () was a literary pseudonym of Elisaveta Ivanovna Dmitrieva (; March 31, 1887 – December 5, 1928), possibly together with Maximilian Voloshin.
==Mysterious poet==
In August 1909, the famous Russian artistic periodical ''Apollon'' received a letter with verses on a perfumed paper with black mourning edges, signed only by a single Russian letter ''Ch''. The verses were filled with half-revelations about its author—supposedly a beautiful maiden with dark secrets. The same day a woman with a ''beautiful voice'' phoned the journal's publisher Sergei Makovsky and arranged for publication of the verses. Over the next few months, publications of the newfound poetic star were the major hit of the magazine, and many believed that they had found a major new talent in Russian poetry. The identity of the author was slowly revealed: her name was Baroness Cherubina de Gabriak, a Russian-speaking girl of French and Polish ancestry who lived in a very strict Roman Catholic aristocratic family, who severely limited the girl's contacts with the outside world because of an unspoken secret in her past. Almost all of ''Apollon''’s male writers fell in love with her, most of all the great poet Nikolai Gumilyov. He wrote a series of passionate love letters to her and received quite passionate answers.
The mystery of the newfound genius was short-lived. In November it was discovered that the verses were written by a disabled schoolteacher, Elisaveta Ivanovna Dmitrieva, with the participation of a major ''Apollon'' contributor and editor, the poet Maximilian Voloshin.
Apparently Sergei Makovsky had rejected several of Dmitrieva's verses; and Voloshin, who knew his publisher quite well, invented the legend about Cherubina. There is still controversy about the correct attribution of Gabriak's corpus. Most contemporaries, including all of ''Apollon''’s critics, were certain that all the verses and most of the letters were written by Voloshin himself; after all, they claimed, Cherubina was a first-rank poet and Dmitrieva was not. Both Elisaveta Dmitrieva and Maximilian Voloshin claimed that the verses were all Dmitrieva's, and that Voloshin only selected them and suggested themes and expressions. Modern researchers tend to support attribution of the verses to Dmitrieva, as they are quite similar to her later works.
