Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
On the night of 24 February 1852 Gogol burned some of his manuscripts which contained most of the second part of 'Dead Souls'. He explained this as a mistake, a practical joke played on him by the Devil. Soon thereafter he took to bed, refused all food and died in great pain nine days later.
(4 March 1852)
There are 3366 births, 3927 deaths, 1121 murders, 497 disasters and 2076 other events about 5724 people in 6428 places until today.
Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar is an ongoing project since 1985 by DDV.
