| Oblomov description |
|---|
| Oblomov (Russian: ; [bomf]) is the second novel by Russian writer Ivan Goncharov, first published in 1859. Ilya Ilyich Oblomov is the central character of the novel, portrayed as the ultimate incarnation of the superfluous man, a symbolic character in 19th-century Russian literature. Oblomov is a young, generous nobleman who seems incapable of making important decisions or undertaking any significant actions. Throughout the novel he rarely leaves his room or bed. In the first 50 pages, he manages only to move from his bed to a chair. The book was considered a satire of Russian nobility whose social and economic function was increasingly questioned in mid-nineteenth century Russia. It has been said that "[n]o other novel has been used to describe the ever-so-elusive 'Russian mentality' or 'Russian soul' as frequently as Oblomov".The novel was popular when it came out, and some of its characters and devices have imprinted on Russian culture and language. |
