Sie gehen Arm in Arm zum Gottesdienst und erkundigen sich täglich nach dem Befinden des anderen bis aus einer Nichtigkeit ein Streit von apokalyptischem Ausmaß entfacht wird, der aus den ehemals besten Freunden Todfeinde werden lässt, die mit allen Mitteln versuchen sich gegenseitig zu vernichten.

Augmenting Gogol’s visions are two disturbing tales by the foremost storyteller of Russia’s “Silver Age”.

Eines Morgens findet der Barbier Iwan Jakowlewitsch eine Nase in seinem Frühstücksbrot. Sie gehört dem Kollegienassessor Kowaljow, der von nun an ohne das gute Stück in seinem Gesicht auskommen muss. Denn die Nase wandelt als eigenständiges Wesen durch St. Petersburg und hat überhaupt kein Interesse, zu seinem ursprünglichen Besitzer zurückzukehren. Die fantastische Erzählung gehört zu Gogols "Petersburger Novellen". In ihr vermischen sich wie selbstverständlich absurde Elemente mit der Realität. Klaus Stieringer erweckt die berühmte Erzählung, die ihrer Zeit weit voraus war, zum Leben.

Was für ein Prachtmensch Iwan Iwanowitsch doch ist. Einen herrlichen Pelzrock hat er, ein herrliches Haus und die Honoratioren der Gegend sind seine guten Bekannten. Auch Iwan Nikiforowitsch ist ein Prachtmensch. Sein Hof grenzt an den von Iwan Iwanowitsch. Die beiden sind eng befreundet. Nun hat Iwan Iwanowitsch bei Iwan Nikiforowitsch eine wunderschöne Flinte gesehen, die er unbedingt haben will. Drum geht er seinen Nachbarn besuchen, nach dem Mittagessen, bei großer Sommerhitze. Und fragt ihn, auf etlichen Umwegen, wozu der denn eine Flinte brauche. Und ob er ihm nicht die Flinte "verehren" wolle.

Iwan Jakowlewitsch zog des Anstandes halber einen Frack über sein Hemd, setzte sich an den Tisch, nahm etwas Salz, schnitt zwei Zwiebeln zurecht, ergriff das Messer, machte eine wichtige Miene und begann das Brot zu zerteilen. Als er es in zwei Hälften geschnitten hatte, blickte er hinein und sah darin zu seinem Erstaunen etwas Weißliches. Iwan Jakowlewitsch kratzte vorsichtig mit dem Messer und tastete mit dem Finger. – Es ist etwas Festes, – sagte er sich, was kann es sein?

No one could have recognized this village of ours a little over a hundred years ago: a hamlet it was, the poorest kind of a hamlet.

Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol was born on 1st April 1809 to a father, descended from Ukrainian Cossacks and a mother with a military background in the Ukrainian town of Sorochyntsi, then part of the Russian Empire and rich in Cossack traditions and folklore.
