The last years of the life of the great Russian prose writer and playwright Gogol were spent in a painful struggle between the artist and the Orthodox thinker. This internal discord served for him as the deadly weapon that killed him. However, the significance of its many famous works became extremely important and profound for Russian literature. Gogol's brief chronological table contains only dry facts. In fact, a lot of incredible events happened to Gogol, which will make us consider him a great mystic, although in fact he was a real Christian.

Biography of Gogol: brief

Gogol was born into the impoverished family of the landowner Gogol-Yanovsky. Gogol's chronological table contains only the most important dates from the writer's biography. And therefore I would like to describe its events in a little more detail.

So, it was in the Nezhin gymnasium that the future Russian writer began to manifest literary, artistic and acting talents.

Dream of becoming a lawyer

However, despite all this, Gogol dreamed of becoming a lawyer, so he went to St. Petersburg. Having become more familiar with the entire bureaucratic life of the capital, he did not want to work in justice. Then he tries himself in other fields. He even worked as a history teacher, but literature took over, and this was facilitated by his acquaintance and collaboration with Pushkin, which had a huge influence on him. The celebrity came to Gogol with the work “Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka.” And then Gogol will begin to shine in dramaturgy thanks to his “The Inspector General”.


Deadly melancholy

But because of the caustic satire they turned against him literary critics. Therefore, having fallen into a deep depression, he was forced to leave Russia and spend 12 whole years abroad. He visited his homeland very rarely. In Italy he will write his famous work “Dead Souls”, which will cause such a great public response that it cannot even be compared with the comedy “The Inspector General”.

Gogol died from nervous and physical exhaustion and loss of strength in Moscow at the age of 43.
