Alexander Pushkins four compact plays, later known as The Little Tragedies, were written at the height of the authors creative powers, and their influence on many Russian and Western writers cannot be overestimated. Yet Western readers are far more familiar with Pushkins lyrics, narrative poems, and prose than with his drama. The Little Tragedies have received few translations or scholarly examinations. Setting out to redress this and to reclaim a cornerstone of Pushkins work, Evodokimova and her distinguished contributors offer the first thorough critical study of these plays. They examine the historical roots and connective themes of the plays, offer close readings, and track the transformation of the works into other genres.This volume includes a significant new translation by James Falen of the plays'The Covetous Knight,' 'Mozart and Salieri,' 'The Stone Guest,' and 'A Feast in Time of Plague.'
