The Government Inspector de Edward O. Marsh

The Government Inspector: Student Editions

Traducere de Edward O. Marsh Editat de Nick Worrall, Non Worrall Autor Nikolai Gogol Traducere de Jeremy Brooks
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 aug 2003
Widely held to have led the realist revolution in Russian drama, Nikoliai Gogol (1809-1852) liberated comedy from a tradition of didacticism and sentimentality. The Government Inspector, his masterpiece, created such a furore when it was first performed in 1835 that Gogol was driven into exile.
In this classic satire on human vanity, the corrupt, self-serving officials of a small town in Tsarist Russia mistake a penniless clerk from Moscow for a government inspector. Through the wild inventiveness of Gogol's comic fantasy the play becomes a celebration of the grotesque and absurd elements in human nature and remains one of the greatest comedies of all time.

Recenzii

Roger Cockrell's freer and livelier versions, of which there
are many more examples, mean that any company planning
a new production of the play would be well advised to use
this fresh, highly actable (and, for good measure, attractively
produced) translation of Gogol's timeless classic.

Roger Cockrell goes straight for the funny bone. His characters speak their truths in intoxicating, colourful English. [.] This reader of Roger Cockrell's lively and hilarious Government Inspector cannot wait to see it staged.

Notă biografică

Nikolai Gogol (1809-1852) was a Russian short story writer, playwright and novelist born in the Ukrainian Cossack town of Sorochyntsi. Often referred to as the Father of the Golden Age of Russian Literature, Gogol was the author of the first great Russian novel, Dead Souls, 1842. He was one of the first writers to use the grotesque in his work, and the famous trope can be seen in his well-known short story, The Overcoat, 1842.
