This ends the chronological table of Gogol. In fact, it is worthwhile to carefully study the biography of this great man, she is really very unusual and interesting.
Gogol was born in an impoverished family of a landownerGogol-Yanovsky. The chronological table of Gogol contained only the most important dates from the writer's biography. And so I want to describe her events in a little more detail.
So, it is in the Nizhyn gymnasium that the future Russian writer begins to display literary, artistic and acting talents.
However, with all this, Gogol dreamed of becominglawyer, so went to St. Petersburg. Having learned all the bureaucratic life of the capital closer, he did not want to work in justice. Then he tries himself in other fields. He even worked as a history teacher, but literature took upwards, this was facilitated by his acquaintance and cooperation with Pushkin, which had a huge impact on him. Celebrity to Gogol came with the product "Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka". And then in the drama Gogol will begin to shine thanks to his "Inspector".
But because of the caustic satire on him they took up armsliterary critics. Therefore, falling into a deep depression, he was forced to leave Russia and spend abroad for 12 whole years. He visited his homeland very rarely. In Italy, he will write his famous work Dead Souls, which will cause such a big public response, which can not even compare with the comedy The Inspector General.
Gogol died of nervous and physical exhaustion and loss of strength in Moscow at the age of 43 years.
