Abstract
Kochetkova, N., Veselova, A. and Baudin, R., eds. (2018). The writer Karamzin: A multi-authored monograph. St. Petersburg: Pushkinskiy Dom. (In Russ.)The multi-authored monograph dedicated to N. Karamzin’s 250th birth anniversary is based on the materials of the international scholarly conference organized by the Institute of Russian Literature of the RAS in 2016. The book was prepared with painstaking accuracy and belongs to the most significant and noteworthy of recently published philological works. The remarkable cyclic composition is structured both logically and symmetrically, as well as with grace, taste, and wittiness so typical of the historical period in question. Profoundly interesting are all six parts of the monograph: the first three are concerned with Karamzin’s fiction writing, whereas the other three discuss his literary connections. The authors succeeded in finding an unexpected approach to the material and brilliantly demonstrate the relevance of issues that had long-provoked disputes. The book will delight and inform experienced philologists, students, and laymen alike.
