Sobre aquest llibre
Nikolai Gogol's 'Dead Souls' is a satirical novel that delves into the intricacies of 19th-century Russian society. The book follows the story of Chichikov, a con man who travels through Russia buying deceased serfs in order to increase his social standing. Through vivid storytelling and a dark sense of humor, Gogol criticizes the greed and moral decay that plagued the landowning class at the time. The novel's unique blend of realism and absurdity makes it a classic work of Russian literature, showcasing Gogol's mastery of the literary form.
Sobre l'autor
Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol, born March 31, 1809, in Sorochyntsi, Ukraine, was a preeminent Russian novelist, playwright, and short story writer, recognized for his significant contribution to Russian literature in the 19th century. Gogol's literary journey commenced with works reflecting Ukrainian culture, but his genius was fully expressed in the satirical and grotesque portrayal of the Russian society. His magnum opus, 'Dead Souls' (1842), is often heralded as the foremost of Russian satires, exploring themes of corruption and moral decay in Tsarist Russia. The novel's vivid and bizarre characterizations are exemplary of Gogol's distinct narrative style, blending realism with romanticism, while the narrator's voice fluctuates between sympathetic observer and biting critic. This unique literary style paved the way for Gogol's reputation as a master of the grotesque and a forerunner of Russian realism. Unfortunately, Gogol struggled with health and personal crises, which led to his untimely death on March 4, 1852. Despite his relatively short life, his works such as 'The Overcoat', 'The Government Inspector', and 'Taras Bulba' further establish his legacy, influencing notable literary figures like Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, and Chekhov. Gogol's profound impact on both the Russian literary canon and the broader scope of world literature endures, resonating through his depth in character, piercing social commentary, and uniquely surreal narrative style.
