Dead Souls

The book is specifically designed for school students who want to quickly prepare for lessons, essays, or literature exams. In addition to the full text of N. V. Gogol's poem "Dead Souls", the edition includes valuable supplementary materials: • a detailed plan of the work on the margins, which allows for quick finding of the necessary fragment, descriptions of characters, and easily tracking the plot of the poem; • extensive comments explaining obscure facts and outdated words; • the history of the creation of the work; • an index of names and events at the end of the book for quick page searching where characters appear, or where events occur, which are important for understanding the author's intent. The manual implements the principles of studying a work in school. The educational-reference materials make the book as convenient as possible for text analysis in class and at home, for preparing essays, and for the OGE and EGE. The manual will also be useful for teachers in planning and conducting literature lessons.
