Nikolai Gogol's Dead Souls is the great comic masterpiece of Russian literature-a satirical and splendidly exaggerated epic of life in the benighted provinces. Gogol hoped to show the world "the untold riches of the Russian soul" in this 1842 novel, which he populated with a Dickensian swarm of characters: rogues and scoundrels, landowners and serfs, conniving petty officials-all of them both utterly lifelike and alarmingly larger than life. Setting everything in motion is the wily antihero, Chichikov, the trafficker in "dead souls"-deceased serfs who still represent profit to those clever enough to trade in them. This lively, idiomatic English version by the award-winning translators Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky makes accessible the full extent of the novel's lyricism, sulphurous humor, and delight in human oddity and error.

Er trat vor Kriemhild, doch er wagte nicht mehr, sie anzublicken. Die Königin aber sagte, wie es die Sitte gebot: "Seid mir willkommen, Herr Siegfried, guter, edler Ritter!" Da wurde Siegfried über und über rot, und er verneigte sich tief vor der Schönen. Ritter und Jungfrauen, Liebe und Tod, Ehre und Intrigen, Freund- und Feindschaften, Feste und Kämpfe - das Nibelungenlied, um 1200 entstanden, gehört zu den Stoffen der Weltliteratur, die bis heute fortwirken. So veröffentlichte auch Franz Fühmann 1971 seine Fassung des Heldenepos, erzählt von Siegfried, dem Drachentöter und Königssohn aus den Niederlanden, der sich aufmacht, Kriemhild zu freien, ein Mädchen, das war so auserlesen, daß man rings in den Landen kein schöneres an Wohlgestalt finden konnte, aber auch kein schöneres an Tugend und Edelsinn. Und er berichtet von Brünhild, die von Burgunds König Gunther durch eine List besiegt und zur Frau genommen wird, sowie über Hagen von Tronje, der Siegfried tötet und damit ein...
