Ivan Sergeevich Shmelev (1873-1950) was a Russian writer and publicist, twice nominated for the Nobel Prize. He was nicknamed the "Orthodox writer" for his numerous texts on Russian spirituality. While in exile, "not for a moment, in his spiritual fervor, did he cease to think about Russia and be tormented by its misfortunes." Shmelev's work was always noted for his intimate knowledge of urban life, the vernacular, and his "attention to folklore." "So, we started talking about Christmas... And those who had never seen the Russia of old have no idea what Russian Christmas is, how it was awaited and celebrated. Here in Moscow, its sign shone from afar, its giant dome gleaming golden in the frosty night—the Cathedral of Christ the Savior."
