Autobiographical beginning in the works of Gogol - Dipl

TEXT EXAMPLES:

Introduction
The topic "autobiographical beginning" is very important for studying the creativity of any writer. Its disclosure is intended to indicate how the events experienced by the author, his own memories and personal impressions reflected in the writer´s works. Meetings with people close to him and his personal correspondence are also very important for understanding Gogol´s work.

Chapter 1. “Portrait”
In one of Gogol´s “Petersburg Narratives,” “Portrait,” the autobiographical beginning was vividly reflected. In the “Portrait” Gogol expressed his views on art, his attitude to creativity, which we later encounter in his other works.

Chapter 2. “Dead Souls”
The first volume of the poem by N. V. Gogol “Dead Souls” was begun in 1842. She was conceived by the author as a huge epic work, which has as its goal “to embrace all of Russia”. Only the first volume of this work and separate chapters of the second have reached us. A. O. Smirnova wrote about the significance of the poem in 1845: “It’s not a province, and not a few ugly landowners, and not what they are credited with, there is the subject of Dead Souls.

Chapter 3. "Selected places from the correspondence with friends"
Book N. V. Gogol "Selected places from the correspondence with friends" was published in early 1847. Gogol himself in the Preface wrote about its purpose and how it was written: “I choose myself from my last letters, which I managed to get back, everything that is more relevant to the issues now in society ...". (Gogol, vol. 6, p. 7). Gogol wrote to A.O. Smirnova in April 1845 about her plan:

§ 1. "Woman in the Light"
The title of Gogol´s article “Woman in the Light” fully corresponds to the problem that confronted the addressee of the Gogol letter. The writer talks about the possibility of a woman to influence modern secular society, about the meaning of her presence in the world.

§ 2. On the "significance of disease"
In 1846, Gogol wrote the article "The Importance of Diseases". It has a lot of autobiography. In the early 1840s, Gogol was constantly ill, as he repeatedly wrote in letters to various individuals. On February 20, 1046, Gogol wrote to P. A. Pletnev from Rome: “The last days were heavy for me, and the whole past year was so hard that I now wonder how I took it. Painful conditions to that extent (at the end of last year and even at the beginning of this one) it was unbearable that hanging up or drowning seemed like some kind of medicine and relief.

§.3. "Historic painter Ivanov"
The twenty-third chapter of the "Selected places from correspondence with friends" is dedicated to the artist Alexander Andreyevich Ivanov. This article is based on two letters: the first is a letter to A. A. Ivanov dated January 9, 1845, written from Frankfurt, the second to Count Matthew Yuryevich Vielgorsky, vice-president of the Society for the Encouragement of Artists, in which the author asked for the content to be assigned to the artist .

§.four. "About Russia"
Several articles and letters from Gogol’s book “Selected Places ...” (“You need to love Russia,” “You need to travel through Russia,” “Fears and Horrors of Russia,” “Near-minded friend,” “Takes an important place.”) her among other nations and the destination of the Russian people.

§ 5. "On Poetry"
Gogol devoted several articles to the book of poetry and Russian literature. These are the articles "On the Lyricism of Our Poets", "Objects for the Lyric Poet at the Present Time", "What, finally, is the essence of Russian poetry and what is its peculiarity?" But all of them are preceded by a short article “On what a word is,” in which Gogol writes about the need to be careful with the word, here expresses the Gospel understanding of it.
