Dubrovsky. Captain"s daughter

The book was composed of two Pushkin masterpieces - the Romanov "Dubrovsky" (written in 1832-1833, the first publication - in 1841) and the "Captain"s daughter" (1836) Although some contemporaries found that the “robber” Roman Pushkin wrote "in the spirit of Walter Scott", it is much more important to descendants and much more obvious that the great poet began to “no longer provincial, thanks to him, world Russian prose” ( Andrey Dmitriev) The captain"s daughter also had undoubted historical value. “It was written between the matter, among the work on Pugachevshchina, but it has more history than in the“ History of the Pugachevsky rebellion "", which seems to be a long explanatory note to the novel, ”wrote Vasily Klyuchevsky. As for the literary merits, Gogol is most categorical and aphoristic in his assessments: “Resolutely the best Russian work in a narrative gender. Compared to the "Captain"s daughter" ", all our novels and novels seem to be sugary."
