内容简介
《死魂灵》是俄国作家尼古莱·瓦西里耶维奇·果戈理·亚诺夫斯基创作的长篇小说，出版于1842年。
小说描写专营骗术的商人乞乞科夫来到某偏僻省城，以其天花乱坠的吹捧成为当地官僚的座上客，并上门去向地主收购死农奴，企图以此作为抵押，买空卖空，牟取暴利。丑事败露后，他便逃之夭夭。
俄国批判现实主义文学发展的基石
果戈理的现实主义创作发展的*峰
小说讲述了一个关于死魂灵交易的故事。死魂灵，即那些实际已经死去，但由于身份尚未注销，在法律上依然存活着的农奴。小说的主人公乞乞科夫，是一个爱财如命的伪装者，一个彬彬有礼的骗子。他走访并买通地方各级大小官员，向形形色色的地主们收买死魂灵，意图将这些并不真实存在的农奴交与监管会抵押，以从中骗取大笔抵押金。果戈理以极具讽刺性的语言，以乞乞科夫的魂灵交易为中心，刻划了一幅十九世纪上半叶，俄国农奴制社会下，如栩如生的众生划面，毫不掩饰地揭穿人性中深藏的一切不完美的真实。「死魂灵」所暗示的广泛意义，至今引人深思，发人深省。
Nikolai Gogol's 'epic poem in prose', Dead Souls is a damning indictment of a corrupt society, translated from the Russian with an introduction and notes by Robert A. Maguire in Penguin Classics.
Chichikov, a mysterious stranger, arrives in the provincial town of 'N', visiting a succession of landowners and making each a strange offer. He proposes to buy the names of dead serfs still registered on the census, saving their owners from paying tax on them, and to use these 'dead souls' as collateral to re-invent himself as a aristocrat. In this ebullient picaresque masterpiece, Gogol created a grotesque gallery of human types, from the bear-like Sobakevich to the insubstantial fool Manilov, and, above all, the devilish con man Chichikov. Dead Souls (1842), Russia's first major novel, is one of the most unusual works of nineteenth-century fiction and a devastating satire on social hypocrisy.
In his introduction, Robert A. Maguire discusses Gogol's life and literary career, his depiction of Russian society, and the language and narrative techniques employed in Dead Souls. This edition also includes a chronology, further reading, appendices, a glossary, map and notes.
Nikolai Gogol (1809-52) was born in the Ukraine. His experience of St Petersburg life informed a savagely satirical play, The Government Inspector, and a series of brilliant short stories including Nevsky Prospekt and Diary of a Madman. For over a decade, Gogol laboured on his comic epic Dead Souls- before renouncing literature and burning parts of the manuscript shortly before he died.
If you enjoyed Dead Souls, you might like Fyodor Dostoyevsksy's The Brothers Karamazov, also available in Penguin Classics.
'Gogol was a strange creature, but then genius is always strange'
Vladimir Nabokov
'I admire the way in which Maguire has kept his own brilliantly variegated vocabulary away from 20th-century phrases, without ever looking parodic or antiquarian'
A.S. Byatt, author of Possession
