Reseña del libro "Essays on Karamzin (Slavistic Printings and Reprintings) (en Inglés)"
Nicholas Karamzin (1766-1826) made an immense contribution to almost all phases of Russia's cultural life, but most studies have dealt with him as a man-of-letters. Generally recognized as a founding father of Russian sentimentalism, as the country's first literary critic, a founder of modern prose writing and a leading journalist, his important contribution to Russia's political thinking and historical writing has often been ignored. The purpose of this collection, is to redress this imbalance by presenting essays that will reveal Karamzin's omnipresence in Russia's literary history, his central place in the evolution of political thought, and both the ideological and scholarly sides of his works as an historian. From the mid-1780s until 1803, Karamzin reigned supreme among Russia's belletrists, and this side of his career is touched upon here in the form of reinterpretation of his works 'Letters of a Russian Traveller' and 'Poor Liza'. A witness to the Revolution in France, of Napoleon's invasion of Russia and the Decembrist riots in St. Petersburg, Karamzin's beautifully-expressed political point of view had the ring of authority. His socio-political image of Russia's past, present and future are demonstrated in a study of his notions of monarchy and by original translations from his political essays, and from the 'History of the Russian State'. Karamzin's changing attitudes towards the French Revolution are traced clearly in one essay, and the inseparable nature of his literary and political writings are illustrated in another study. An analysis of his changing versions of the Idyll reinforces the point. In another essay, Karamzin's significant accomplishments as a scholar are contrasted to the usual impression of him as a purely romantic 18th century historian. The closing article dwells on the consequences for Russian letters and political thinking of Karamzin's continued presence in the literary and ideological writings in Russia long after his death.
