Мастерство Гоголя. Исследование
Издательство "Книжный Клуб Книговек" представляет легендарное исследование Андрея Белого - для истинных ценителей творчества Гоголя. "Мастерство Гоголя" - ярчайшая веха на пути к истинному, потаенному Гоголю, созданная одним из самых тонких и изящных его ценителей и последователей, достойным сыном Серебряного века - времени, когда русские декаденты и символисты объявили Гоголя своим предшественником, стали воспринимать его творчество под знаком ирреального, мистики и тайны.
Никто, как Андрей Белый, так остро не чувствовал символизм гоголевских деталей - символизм естественный, органический, по выражению исследователя, "выбух физиологического процесса".
Анализ формы простирается у Андрея Белого до анализа звуков, не гнушающегося установлением частоты их употребления и тенденции к статистике. Метод, который до Андрея Белого мог показаться механическим, затем стал с успехом применяться зарубежными славистами. Предлагаемая книга является полным изданием труда Андрея Белого, сохраняющим его орфографию, пунктуацию, сокращения, схемы и другие особенности текста.
Издание воссоздает уникальный облик впервые опубликованной почти восемь десятков лет назад книги, над которой работал художник Лев Ричардович Мюльгаупт. Неповторимый образ Гоголя на переплете дополняется изумительной своей гротескностью галереей персонажей знаменитого сюжетного форзаца, по праву вошедшего в историю книжного искусства.

About the author
Andrei Bely
161 books155 followersBoris Bugaev was born in Moscow, into a prominent intellectual family. His father, Nikolai Bugaev, was a leading mathematician who is regarded as a founder of the Moscow school of mathematics. His mother was not only highly intelligent but a famous society beauty, and the focus of considerable gossip. Young Boris was a polymath whose interests included mathematics, music, philosophy, and literature. He would go on to take part in both the Symbolist movement and the Russian school of neo-Kantianism.
Nikolai Bugaev was well known for his influential philosophical essays, in which he decried geometry and probability and trumpeted the virtues of hard analysis. Despite—or because of—his father's mathematical tastes, Boris Bugaev was fascinated by probability and particularly by entropy, a notion to which he frequently refers in works such as Kotik Letaev.
Bely's creative works notably influenced—and were influenced by—several literary schools, especially symbolism. They feature a striking mysticism and a sort of moody musicality. The far-reaching influence of his literary voice on Russian writers (and even musicians) has frequently been compared to the impact of James Joyce in the English-speaking world. The novelty of his sonic effects has also been compared to the innovative music of Charles Ives.[citation needed]
As a young man, Bely was strongly influenced by his acquaintance with the family of philosopher Vladimir Solovyov, especially Vladimir's younger brother Mikhail, described in his long autobiographical poem The First Encounter (1921); the title is a reflection of Vladimir Solovyov's Three Encounters.
Bely's symbolist novel Petersburg (1916; 1922) is generally considered to be his masterpiece. The book employs a striking prose method in which sounds often evoke colors. The novel is set in the somewhat hysterical atmosphere of turn-of-the-century Petersburg and the Russian Revolution of 1905. To the extent that the book can be said to possess a plot, this can be summarized as the story of the hapless Nikolai Apollonovich, a ne'er-do-well who is caught up in revolutionary politics and assigned the task of assassinating a certain government official—his own father. At one point, Nikolai is pursued through the Petersburg mists by the ringing hooves of the famous bronze statue of Peter the Great.[citation needed]
In his later years Bely was influenced by Rudolf Steiner’s anthroposophy[3][4] and became a personal friend of Steiner's. He died, aged 53, in Moscow.
Bely was one of the major influences on the theater of Vsevolod Meyerhold.[citation needed]
The Andrei Bely Prize (Russian: Премия Андрея Белого), one of the most important prizes in Russian literature, was named after him. His poems were set on music and frequently performed by Russian singer-songwriters.
