Abstract

The article examines the organization of the conflict in Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka and in Mirgorod, which is based on the historically determined «self-sufficiency» of the middle generation of the Cossacks. Prolonging their «zenith», the «fathers» hinder dynastic evolution as they neglect the heroic past, deny women the joys of motherhood and disenfranchise their sons. In order to break his father’s resistance and to marry, Gogol’s protagonist appeals to his forebears and passes a test, in which the distinction between filial affection and sensuality plays a crucial role.

KeywordsN. V. Gogol, conflict, marriage, continuity, incest, the Gothic plot.
