Nikolai Gogol (1809–1852) was one of the central figures of nineteenth-century Russian literature, known for his prose works combining realism, satire, and elements of the grotesque. His major writings, including Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka, Mirgorod, The Government Inspector, and Dead Souls, had a profound impact on the development of Russian literary tradition and influenced later generations of writers.
