The conference took place on May, 26 2023 and was dedicated to Alexander Pushkin’s creative heritage and the 190th anniversary of the poet's visit to Simbirsk. UlSU (Ulyanovsk State University), which celebrates its 35 anniversary this year, hosted the event. Pushkin’s work has been translated into all the languages of the world. There are over 300 monuments dedicated to Pushkin in 40 countries. The conference was held in the Yazykovs’ House, a literary museum. The house once belonged to Nikolay Yazykov, a Simbirsk poet and a very good friend of Pushkin.
