Gogol's great Russian classic is the Pickwick Papers of Russian literature. It takes a sharp but humorous look at life in all its strata but especially the devious complexities in Russia, with its landowners and serfs. We are introduced to Chichikov, a businessman who, in order to trick the tax authorities, buys up dead 'souls', or serfs, whose names still appear on the government census. Despite being a dealer in phantom crimes and paper ghosts, he is the most beguiling of Gogol's characters.

The Nose is a short story by Nikolai Gogol and was published in 1836. It tells the story of a man (known as Major Kovalyov) who lost his nose in an extraordinarily strange incident. He soon realizes that his nose dressed as a man of high rank and pretending to be a human being: It goes to church and can talk to Kovalyov. He tries to get the nose back on his face in many different ways but the nose refuses to return.

Centering on the picaresque realism of Nikolai Gogol’s (1809-1852) mid-19th-century visions of the extraordinary in everyday life, this collection mines the ambiance and mind of pre-Revolutionary Russia. These seven stories take us from the Miracle Mile of St. Petersburg’s Nevsky Prospekt, and a summer night in a Ukrainian village, to the fantastical psychological geographies of fathers, sons, and madmen. Augmenting Gogol’s visions are two disturbing tales by the foremost storyteller of Russia’s “Silver Age”.

Eine Nase entweicht ihrem Besitzer und geht promenieren; ein verarmter Maler entdeckt eine Menge Golddukaten im Rahmen eines preiswert erworbenen Porträts; -unterdrückt und gepeinigt im Beruf und hoffnungslos verliebt, flüchtet sich ein Titularrat in seine eigene Welt, der Eindruck eines normalen Menschen wandelt sich zusehends in das Bild eines hoffnungslosen Phantasten und Verrückten; - die Anschaffung eines neuen Mantels wird einem Kopisten zum Verhängnis; zwei Bauern, die ein Leben lang gute Nachbarn waren, geraten plötzlich in Streit, weil sich Iwan Iwanowitsch in den Kopf setzt, Iwan Nikiforowitschs altes Gewehr gegen sein braunes Schwein einzuhandeln.

En La Bruja – El Viyi, nos conduce a un territorio donde el folclore palpita con fuerza; un mundo donde las noches se cargan de presagios, las criaturas míticas acechan al borde del camino, lo sagrado y lo profano se rozan sin permiso. Un estudiante de seminario se ve obligado a vigilar el cadáver de una joven, que quizá no está tan muerta como parece.

For an atheist it’s a great deal, though it does suggest atheism may have a weak point. For those of faith it’s a matter of jam now and purgatory tomorrow. A bargain many artists feel is something they can live with. For agnostics it’s usually a question of can the afterlife really be that bad, would workplace regulations reach all parts of heaven and hell. However, in this volume the terms are agreed and the Devil pays his fees and the character his dues, each happy to wait a few decades for the eternal payback.

Sie erzählt die tragikomische Geschichte des kleinen Beamten Akakij Akakijewitsch, dessen Leben sich ganz um seine Arbeit dreht – bis der Kauf eines neuen Mantels plötzlich alles verändert. Was als unscheinbare Alltagsgeschichte beginnt, entwickelt sich zu einer tief bewegenden Erzählung über soziale Kälte, existenzielle Not und den verzweifelten Wunsch nach Anerkennung. Gogols Der Mantel wurde zur Inspirationsquelle für Schriftsteller wie Dostojewski, Kafka oder Nabokov – ein literarisches Meisterwerk zwischen Realismus, Satire und feinem Schrecken.

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.

Ein Beamter aus Sankt Petersburg wacht eines Morgens auf – und stellt fest, dass seine Nase verschwunden ist. Noch unglaublicher: Die Nase führt plötzlich ein Eigenleben und tritt als hochrangiger Staatsbeamter auf. Gogol nutzt diese groteske Geschichte, um die Absurditäten des russischen Beamtentums, soziale Eitelkeit und den Verlust der persönlichen Identität satirisch zu entlarven.
