Relats del difunt Ivan Petróvitx Belkin / La dama de piques

Rate this book
Entre el conte fantàstic, en la línia d'E. T. A. Hoffmann, i el conte realista, crític amb un cert romanticisme i sovint no mancat d'ironia, Puixkin ens ofereix en aquests relats una mostra ben palpable de la seva traça a l'hora de construir personatges amb eficàcia i brevetat i de bastir històries sorprenents amb el llenguatge precís, clar i senzill que el va fer famós. No és pas casualitat que Txaikovski com a músic i Tolstoi com a escriptor li fossin deutors reconeguts. Ara el públic català té a l'abast la millor narrativa del pare de les lletres russes.

People consider this author the greatest poet and the founder of modern literature. Pushkin pioneered the use of vernacular speech in his poems, creating a style of storytelling—mixing drama, romance, and satire—associated ever with greatly influential later literature.

Pushkin published his first poem at the age of 15 years in 1814, and the literary establishment widely recognized him before the time of his graduation from the imperial lyceum in Tsarskoe Selo. Social reform gradually committed Pushkin, who emerged as a spokesman for literary radicals and in the early 1820s clashed with the government, which sent him into exile in southern Russia. Under the strict surveillance of government censors and unable to travel or publish at will, he wrote his most famous drama but ably published it not until years later. People published his verse serially from 1825 to 1832.

Pushkin and his wife Natalya Goncharova, whom he married in 1831, later became regulars of court society. In 1837, while falling into ever greater debt amidst rumors that his wife started conducting a scandalous affair, Pushkin challenged her alleged lover, Georges d'Anthès, to a duel. Pushkin was mortally wounded and died two days later.

Because of his liberal political views and influence on generations of Russian rebels, Pushkin was portrayed by Bolsheviks as an opponent to bourgeois literature and culture and a predecessor of Soviet literature and poetry. Tsarskoe Selo was renamed after him.

Que buen descubrimiento ha resultado este libro. Que no os de miedo leer a Pushkin cuando existen relatos como estos. En algo más de 100 páginas he podido disfrutar, y mucho, de la pluma de este autor al que aún no había leído. Una joyita.

Facil lectura. Cada cuento posee una pequeña reflexion moral y social.
Me gustron los 2 con mas tinte de terror fantastico (la dama de piqué y el fabricante de ataudes).

Me parece un buen libro para iniciar en el autor.
Lo considero mas interesante que "la hija del capitan" la cual es una novela "historica"

Je viens de terminer un excellent recueil de nouvelles de Pouchkine. Le style de Pouchkine est sec, précis, sans pathos mais terriblement efficace. J'ai également été bluffé par sa capacité à captiver le lecteur très rapidement grâce à une grande maîtrise dans ses intrigues. J'ai particulièrement aimé Doubrovski, nouvelle pleine de charme et de finesse.

Un ensemble de petits récits agréables à lire. Pouchkine est un auteur facile à lire qui a le sens du détail et qui nous fait revivre des pans de la vie russe à l'époque des Tsars par une description approfondie des habits ou des décors de cette époque et une écriture simple. Une belle découverte après un de ses belles œuvres la fille du capitaine.

j’ai aimé les retournements de situations improbables, il n’y a pas toujours de morale mais ces récits sont toujours amusants.

En general, l'interès és relatiu. La traducció al català, sense ser terrible, és millorable.
