About this book
In the mid-19th century, Russian society grappled with the tensions of modernization and tradition. "Oblomov" by Ivan Aleksandrovich Goncharov explores the life of Ilya Ilyitch Oblomov, a man paralyzed by his own inertia and disillusionment with societal norms. This classic novel delves into themes of existentialism and the clash between ambition and apathy, capturing the essence of a character who embodies the struggle against the pressures of modern life. With its rich portrayal of the Russian gentry and the concept of "oblomovism," this work resonates with students, civic activists, and historians alike. Discover the profound reflections on human nature that make "Oblomov" a timeless exploration of identity and purpose.
