NIKOLAI VASILEVICH GOGOL was born at Sorotchinetz, in Little Russia, in March, 1809, the exact day being impossible to discover. The year in which he appeared on the planet proved to be the literary annus mirabilis of the century; for in this same twelvemonth were born Charles Darwin, Alfred Tennyson, Abraham Lincoln, Poe, Gladstone, Holmes, Chopin, and Mendelssohn. His father was a literary amateur, who wrote dramatic pieces for his own amusement, and who spent his time on the old family estate, not in managing the farms, but in wandering about the gardens and beholding the fowls of the air. The boy inherited much from his father; but he had the best of all private tutors, a good mother, of whom his biographer says, Elle demeure toujours sa plus intime amie.

虽然西人早有评论,认为果戈里的文学作品俄罗斯主题太强,其地方性也许会阻遏别国读者的理解力,但上世纪鲁迅先生却有异声。他将此书译成中文,并大加推介,声言可为国人观照自身机理之用。 通读此书,知鲁迅之言非虚也。 主人公巴维尔•伊凡诺维奇•乞乞科夫的罪恶的直...
评分这本书从史诗角度来说,不及《悲惨世界》、《巴黎圣母院》、《哈姆雷特》这样的名著,但是又比《简爱》、《呼啸山庄》这样的名著品质高,可以说是第二等级的名著吧。 之所以不能成为第一等级的名著,关键有几点原因。第一点,篇幅问题,本书大约几十万字上下,而第二卷的手稿又...

评分乞乞科夫,本是一个地主家庭出身的俄罗斯官场的小爬虫,在与走私集团勾结获取大笔贿赂事败后,企图通过收买偏远地方的空置农田,取得其他地主手中(已死去)农奴名单后,向当局骗取大笔贷款。果戈里通过乞乞科夫在一个外省打通了官场的门路,从几个地主手中无偿或以极低价买进已...
评分多年前就知道《死魂灵》,一直以为是个玄幻小说。直到多年后的今天第一次打开它。读的是英文版,有些晦涩难懂。 乞乞科夫是个潇洒的黄金单身汉,仪表堂堂,风度翩翩,坐着豪华的小马车,穿着私人定制的高级外套,穿梭在各种官僚和贵妇之间。巧舌如簧,在每个话题上都有...

Gogol's 1842 novel Dead Souls, a comic masterpiece about a mysterious con man and his grotesque victims, is one of the major works of Russian literature. It was translated into English in 1942 by Bernard Guilbert Guerney; the translation was hailed by Vladimir Nabokov as "an extraordinarily fine piece of work" and is still considered the best translation of Dead Souls ever published. Long out of print, the Guerney translation of Dead Souls is now reissued. The text has been made more faithful to Gogol's original by removing passages that Guerney inserted from earlier drafts of Dead Souls. The text is accompanied by Susanne Fusso's introduction and by appendixes that present excerpts from Guerney's translations of other drafts of Gogol's work and letters Gogol wrote around the time of the writing and publication of Dead Souls.
