Rozjdestvenski was born as an officer's son and grew up in Omsk. In 1941 his father died during World War II. Shortly thereafter, his mother died as a doctor at the front, he ended up in an orphanage.

During his schooling, Rozjdestvenski began writing poetry and in 1950 he published his first bundle. From 1951 to 1956 he studied literature at the Maksim Gorki Institute in Moscow.

During the 'thaw', after 1956, Rozjdestvenski joined a group of writers who broke up with socialist realism, along with Jevgeni Jevtoesjenko, Bella Achmadoelina and Andrej Voznesenski. He received recognition in 1961 with his e-mail in verses Requiem (for the victims of the Second World War), but also because he held numerous poems from his poems at universities and colleges. Rozjdestvenski wrote a lot of publicistic pathetic lyricism, which sometimes reminds me of late Majakovski. After the 'thaw' period, from the mid-sixties, he addressed the ideals of communism and wrote in ironic verses about his travels abroad.

In 1979, Rozjdestvenski received the State Prize of the USSR. From 1986, he actively participated in the democratic development in the USSR and supported the glass nest and perestrojka. Working (selection) Literature, sources,
