Gogol's great Russian classic is the Pickwick Papers of Russian literature. It takes a sharp but humorous look at life in all its strata but especially the devious complexities in Russia, with its landowners and serfs. We are introduced to Chichikov, a businessman who, in order to trick the tax authorities, buys up dead 'souls', or serfs, whose names still appear on the government census. Despite being a dealer in phantom crimes and paper ghosts, he is the most beguiling of Gogol's characters.

Since its publication in 1842, Dead Souls has been celebrated as a supremely realistic portrait of provincial Russian life and as a splendidly exaggerated tale; as a paean to the Russian spirit and as a remorseless satire of imperial Russian venality, vulgarity, and pomp. As Gogol's wily antihero, Chichikov, combs the back country wheeling and dealing for "dead souls"—deceased serfs who still represent money to anyone sharp enough to trade in them—we are introduced to a Dickensian cast of peasants, landowners, and conniving petty officials.

Amalia Guglielminetti (1881 –1941) fu una scrittrice e poetessa italiana, nota forse più per il suo legame con Guido Gozzano che per i suoi scritti. Eppure di lei Graf scrisse: «la sua ispirazione è viva, schietta, delicata quanto più si possa dire, e l'arte la seconda a meraviglia. Quelle sue figure di fanciulle e donne son cose di tutta gentilezza, e molti sonetti son di squisita fattura.
