The lecture by Yegor Sartakov is an opportunity to look at the novel "Resurrection" in a new way and find answers to pressing questions of modernity. Listeners will learn why "Resurrection" became a novel of a new type, how it is connected to the author's worldview crisis, and why he equated frequent possession of women with harmful habits-like alcohol or a sweet tooth. Yegor Sartakov will reveal the literary and philosophical layers of the work and help find resonances with contemporary life. Guests of the lecture will discuss whether it is possible to live by fitting reality to ideology and what Chekhov's statements about the novel "Resurrection" mean. The lecture will be interesting for anyone interested in culture, students, philologists, and teachers.
