The Undertaker. The Tales of Belkin
In the Boldin autumn of 1830, during a three-month cholera quarantine, Alexander Pushkin created his innovative cycle "The Tales of the Late Ivan Petrovich Belkin".
In the process of writing, he also formulated his main prose rule: to write clearly, briefly,...
and distinctly.
The narrator - the fictional landowner Ivan Petrovich Belkin - left us five tales, each of which reflects its own literary style.
Thus, "The Shot" is romanticism, "The Blizzard", "The Stationmaster", and "The Lady Peasant" 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 Erzurum During the Campaign of 1829".
