Description
“The History of Peter the Great,” or “The History of Peter I,” is an unfinished historical work by A. S. Pushkin.
Work on the text began in April 1835—this is recorded in a letter from Alexander Sergeyevich to the historian M. Pogodin, where he wrote that he begins with fear and excitement. Throughout spring and summer the author worked on his book, planning to finish the first volume by the coming winter. Later, however, the author changed his mind and decided not to publish each volume as soon as it was written, instead writing a preliminary text in which the events from the ruler’s birth to his death were highlighted.
Pushkin continued working on his work until the very end of his life, studying all the facts and the chronology of the ruler’s life. In late December he reported that he would not be able to submit the book on time, since searching for data and preparing it takes a great deal of time. Pushing the deadline, the author planned to finish his work within a year.
Just before the famous tragic duel, Pushkin together with Turgenev went through European archives and dispatches from French ambassadors at the emperor’s court. On January 29, 1837, the work lost its chance to become complete, because its author tragically died.
