Yeah I know, however it would be nice to know what the grand overview of Russian literary history is like with its various authors and eras.

I didn't see mentioned, yet (with birth years):

Gorkij (1868)
Blok (1880)
Pasternak (1890)
Evtusenko (1933)
Brodskij (1940)

Nabokov only became important after writing English prose when he emigrated to the United States.
