Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart. The Russian Literary Tradition has justly earned a magnificent reputation. The Russian Empire of the Czars was a huge and disparate patchwork of peoples ruled by an overbearing elite that employed a middle-class bureaucracy to keep the working class firmly underfoot. Within its vaulted ranks are a role call of many of the greatest literary talents of the ages.

Alexander Sergeyevich was a Russian poet, playwright, and novelist of the Romantic era. He is considered by many to be the greatest Russian poet, as well as the founder of modern Russian literature.

Pushkin wrote the tale in 1834 and it was first published in literary magazine Biblioteka dlya chteniya (Library for Reading) in 1835.

Questo romanzo in versi, scritto da Pushkin tra il 1822 e il 1831, fu pubblicato nel 1833. Gli ultimi versi, scritti col tono di chi ha ormai vissuto molto ed è ormai vecchio (e in quel momento l'autore aveva 32 anni) sembrano forieri della morte precoce dell'artista. Nell'opera l'autore deplora l'assurdità dei duelli che troncano per delle sciocchezze una vita in fiore, a volte per mano degli stessi amici. Di fatto l'autore morì egli stesso in un duello a 38 anni.

Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin (1799 – 1837) was a Russian author of the Romantic era who is considered by many to be the greatest Russian poet and the founder of modern Russian literature. He was notoriously sensitive about his own personal honour and is believed to have fought as many as twenty-nine duels... the last of which proved fatal for him.A duel is the crux of his masterful short story "The Pistol-Shot" - but it is a duel with a difference.

Alexander Pushkin (1799-1837) leads the great names of Russian literature. After completing his education, Pushkin devoted himself to the pleasures of society, alongside his writing. In 1820 he was banished to the Caucasus for writing and promoting liberal views. Deprived of his social life, Pushkin devoted himself to his writing and bequeathed to the world some of the greatest poetry and stories ever written. He met his death in a duel in 1837.

These are but a few of whose company we shall be keeping as we raise the curtain on our first instalment of theatrical history.
