In the autumn of 1830, during a three-month cholera quarantine, Alexander Pushkin created his groundbreaking cycle "The Tales of the Late Ivan Petrovich Belkin." In the process of writing, he also formulated his main rule for prose: to write clearly,...
concisely, and plainly.
The narrator, the fictional landowner Ivan Petrovich Belkin, left us five tales, each reflecting its own literary style.
Thus, "The Shot" is romanticism, "The Blizzard," "The Stationmaster," and "The Peasant Girl" are sentimentalism, while "The Undertaker" is a gothic tale altogether.
The book also includes the historical novel "The Moor of Peter the Great" and Pushkin's travelogue "Journey to Arzrum during the Campaign of 1829."
