  • Mikhail Bulgakov was born in Kyiv, Russian Empire (today part of modern Ukraine) on 3/15 May 1891. He studied and briefly practised medicine and, after indigent wanderings through revolutionary Russia and the Caucasus, he settled in Moscow in 1921. His sympathetic portrayal of White characters in his stories, in the plays The Days of the Turbins (The White Guard), which enjoyed great success at the Moscow Art Theatre in 1926, and Flight (1927), and his satirical treatment of the officials of the New Economic Plan, led to growing criticism, which became violent after the play, The Purple Island. His later works treat the subject of the artist and the tyrant under the guise of historical characters, with plays such as Molière, staged in 1936, Don Quixote, staged in 1940, and Pushkin, staged in 1943. He also wrote a brilliant biography, highly original in form, of his literary hero, Molière, but The Master and Margarita, a fantasy novel about the devil and his henchmen set in modern Moscow, is generally considered his masterpiece. Fame, at home and abroad, was not to come until a quarter of a century after his death in Moscow in 1940.

الوصف

“The White Guard is the first full-length novel by the Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov, written between 1923 and 1924. However, it was not published in its entirety until after Bulgakov’s death. The novel is a remarkable exploration of the political and social turmoil following the Bolshevik Revolution and the civil war in Ukraine.
et in Kyiv during the winter of 1918-1919, The White Guard captures a time of dramatic political changes as the Russian Empire collapses and multiple factions vie for control of the region. The story revolves around the Turbin family, particularly the siblings Alexei and Elena, and their close friend Nikolai. The family is caught in the chaos as White Guard forces, Bolsheviks, and Ukrainian nationalists battle for dominance over the city.
The novel vividly portrays the personal and psychological struggles of individuals amid the disintegration of the old order and the rise of a new, chaotic reality. Bulgakov masterfully depicts daily life in Kyiv during a time of siege and upheaval, highlighting the loss of security and the collapse of traditional institutions.”
