Ivan Andreyevich Khovansky Life story
Prince Ivan Andreyevich Khovansky was a Russian boyar who led the Streltsy during the Moscow Uprising of 1682, alternatively known as the Khovanshchina. His life was dramatized by Modest Mussorgsky in the eponymous opera. Khovansky's moniker, Tararui, derives from the old Russian word for "chatterbox".
