Oblomov. Goncharov I.

The novel “Oblomov” is the peak of the work of I. A. Goncharov. The writer showed an amazing and paradoxical type of Russian person, making his name a household name. The novel caused an ambiguous reaction of critics. N. A. Dobrolyubov saw in Oblomov a symbol of the inertness of Russia and a sign of time. And, for example, A.V. Druzhinin wrote: “He is dear to us as an independent and pure nature, which is quite independent of that scholastic-modest and monk, which stains a huge majority of people...” Some interpreted the novel as a satirical work, others noted in It is both the lyrical principle and subtle psychologism. This original and one -as -aid book still causes disputes.
