Poor Liza by N. M. Karamzin and Female Suicide in Nineteenth-Century Russian Literature
The paper studies the constituting of European liberal project 'choice' and 'responsibility' in 18-th century Russian Literature through the problem of female death, as been referenced in N. M. Karamzin's short novel Poor Liza. The heroine's suicide is interpreted in the author's complex intertextual dialogue with such emblematic novels as Richardson's Clarissa Harlowe, Rousseau's Julie, ou la Nouvelle Héloïse, Goethe's Die Leiden des jungen Werther. Poor Liza is an important part of this European context and is seen as one of the first Russia's 'European' literary works, as far as Karamzin changes in that dialogue the code of female suffering. On the other hand the paper analyses the development of the theme in A. Ostrovsky's drama The Storm and in L. Tolstoy's novel Anna Karenina and it is shown that the suicide (interpreted as a gender opposition between women and men) transforms the sign of female body from a victim into a moral victor.
