Answer

Nekrasov was a Russian poet who introduced the ternary meter into Russian poetry. This meter is a three-beat meter, which is different from the traditional iambic meter, which is a five-beat meter. The ternary meter is often used in humorous or satirical poetry, and it can also be used in more serious poetry. Nekrasov's use of the ternary meter helped to make Russian poetry more varied and interesting.
