This book proceeds on the assumption that Gogol's life and work, in all their manifestations, form a whole; it identifies, in ways that have eluded critics to date, the rhetorical strategies and thematic patterns that create the unity. These larger concerns emerge from a close study of the major texts, fictional and nonfictional, and in turn are set in a broad artistic and intellectual context, Russian and European, with special attention to German philosophy, the visual arts, and Orthodox Christian theology. 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Russian & Former Soviet Union$2bisacsh 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Russian & Former Soviet Union. 676 $a891.7/3/3 700 $aMaguire$b Robert A., $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0458699 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154724503321 996 $aExploring Gogol$9174041 997 $aUNINA
