Iakov Vilimovich Brius (1670-1735), a son of two peoples, Scottish and Russian, was the most educated man in the entourage of Peter I. He was an astronomer, mathematician, artillerist, botanist and mineralogist, and governor of the city of Novgorod; no wonder that he acquired a reputation as a practitioner of black magic and a sorcerer, and his name was surrounded with legends. This is a new complete biography of Ia. Brius. (0.425 kg.) Also available one more biography of this legendary man: Kiriukhin, A.V. Tot Samyi Kudesnik Brius (2003)
