“The Captain’s Daughter” is one of the first and most famous works of Russian historical prose, the novel by A.S. Pushkin devoted to the events of the Peasant War of 1773–1775 led by Emelyan Pugachev. It was first published in 1836 in the journal “Sovremennik” without the author’s signature. At the same time, the chapter about the peasant uprising in Grinyov’s village remained unpublished, which was explained by censorship reasons; it survived in Pushkin’s draft manuscript. The novel has been filmed numerous times.
