Plus que des œuvres littéraires brillantes, ce sont des portraits en creux de la société russe du XIXème siècle. Ces tableaux de mœurs nous renseignent avec talent et sagacité sur une société, des tempéraments, l'évolution d'un peuple, d'un Empire, et brosse le portrait au quotidien des hommes et des femmes, tous ces personnages qui vivent et qui peuplent ces chefs d'œuvres. La littérature en langue russe proprement dite naît au cours du XVIIème siècle, tout d'abord avec la poésie et le théâtre, mais très tôt naît une très riche tradition romanesque.

Chichikov, a mysterious stranger, arrives in a provincial town and visits a succession of landowners to make each a strange offer. He proposes to buy the names of dead serfs still registered on the census, saving their owners from paying tax on them, and to use these "souls" as collateral to reinvent himself as a gentleman. In this ebullient masterpiece, Nikolai Gogol created a grotesque gallery of human types.

This story takes place in the bucolic small town of Mirgorod (Myrhorod in Ukrainian), written in a style featuring grotesque, realistic portrayals of the characters. The two Ivans are gentlemen landowners, neighbors, and great friends, each one almost being the opposite image of the other. Ivan Ivanovich is tall, thin, and well-spoken, for example, while Ivan Nikiforovich is short, fat, and cuts to the point with a biting honesty. Please note: This audiobook is in Russian.

Using, or rather mimicking, traditional forms of storytelling, Gogol created stories that are complete within themselves and only tangentially connected to a meaning or moral. His work belongs to the school of invention, where each twist and turn of the narrative is a surprise unfettered by obligation to an overarching theme.

Dive into the world of celebrated Ukrainian-born author Nikolai Gogol, whose collection of vividly grotesque and fantastical tales will leave you both captivated and unsettled. These stories delve into themes of death, madness, ghosts, and the absurdity of bureaucracy, all woven together with a sharp, dark humor that highlights the tragic nature of human existence. (Summary by Ben Tucker)

Dead Souls is a novel by Nikolai Gogol, first published in 1842, and widely regarded as an exemplar of 19th-century Russian literature. Gogol himself saw it as an "epic poem in prose", and within the book as a "novel in verse". Despite supposedly completing the trilogy's second part, Gogol destroyed it shortly before his death. Although the novel ends in mid-sentence, it is usually regarded as complete in the extant form. Please note: This audiobook is in Russian.

Taras Bulba describes the life of an old Zaporozhian Cossack, Taras Bulba, and his two sons, Andriy and Ostap. The sons study at the Kiev Academy and then return home, whereupon the three men set out on a journey to Zaporizhian Sich located in Southern Ukraine, where they join other Cossacks and go to war against Poland.

Ukrainian-born humorist, dramatist and novelist Nikolai Gogol is widely believed to have led the realist revolution in Russian literature. His surreal, absurdist satires liberated comedy from its sentimental traditions and influenced writers both within Russia and worldwide, among them Fyodor Dostoevsky, Franz Kafka and Flannery O’Connor.

Since its publication in 1842, Dead Souls has been celebrated as a supremely realistic portrait of provincial Russian life and as a splendidly exaggerated tale; as a paean to the Russian spirit and as a remorseless satire of imperial Russian venality, vulgarity, and pomp. As Gogol's wily antihero, Chichikov, combs the back country wheeling and dealing for "dead souls"—deceased serfs who still represent money to anyone sharp enough to trade in them—we are introduced to a Dickensian cast of peasants, landowners, and conniving petty officials.

From sweeping tales of war and philosophy to darkly comic journeys through bureaucracy and haunting visions of dystopia, this collection gathers some of the most profound and provocative works ever written. Each novel offers a unique window into the complexities of the human condition, set against the backdrop of Russia's rich and turbulent history.

מבחר מסיפוריו המוקדמים של ניקולאי גוגול, שבחרה ותרגמה כלת פרס ישראל נילי מירסקי, רואה כעת אור במהדורה מחודשת, במלאת שנה למותה. את הסיפורים הללו כתב גוגול בצעירותו...

Der letzte Tag vor Weihnachten war zu Ende. Eine klare Winternacht brach an; die Sterne erstrahlten am Himmel; der Mond erhob sich majestätisch, um den guten Menschen und der ganzen Welt zu leuchten, damit jeder recht lustig die Koljadalieder singe und den Heiland preise.

Das Haus war nicht hoch, nach dem äußeren eine gewöhnliche Kosakenhütte mit einer Stube. Doch ist darin Platz für ihn und die Frau, für die alte Dienerin und zehn auserlesenen Burschen.

Was für ein Prachtmensch Iwan Iwanowitsch doch ist. Einen herrlichen Pelzrock hat er, ein herrliches Haus und die Honoratioren der Gegend sind seine guten Bekannten. Auch Iwan Nikiforowitsch ist ein Prachtmensch. Sein Hof grenzt an den von Iwan Iwanowitsch. Die beiden sind eng befreundet. Nun hat Iwan Iwanowitsch bei Iwan Nikiforowitsch eine wunderschöne Flinte gesehen, die er unbedingt haben will. Drum geht er seinen Nachbarn besuchen, nach dem Mittagessen, bei großer Sommerhitze. Und fragt ihn, auf etlichen Umwegen, wozu der denn eine Flinte brauche. Und ob er ihm nicht die Flinte "verehren" wolle.

Die tragische Geschichte des Kosakenhauptmanns Taras Bulba entführt uns in die Kriegswehen Russlands im sechzehnten Jahrhundert. In der Familie Taras, der einen Sohn tötet, um sein Volk zu retten und die Hinrichtung des anderen nicht verhindern kann, vollzieht sich jener Zyklus, der seit Menschengedenken das Leben bestimmt: Geburt und Liebe, Tod und Trauer.

Mental illness though can still carry a stigma. A case of ‘you’re not trying hard enough’, ‘or knuckling down and getting on with it’. But in more recent decades mental issues have come to be recognised as an illness, a disease rather than an affliction. We all remember horror stories of lobotomy’s and electric shock being used to ‘cure’ what society viewed as anti-social behaviour but illness, mental or physical is very real. Depression, schizophrenia, breakdown, psychosis are alarming events to have or to witness.
