Текст песни Гоголь - Тарас Бульба

The story "Taras Bulba" is a heroic illumination of the era, characters, morals, an extraordinary expression of style, a frantic brightness of verbal colors. Gogol's acquisition of the past is achieved not by a scrupulous display of historical chronicle, not by archaeological thoroughness of details, but by a generalization of events, by the romantic fullness of images, when the dramatic fates of the heroes acquire an epic scale.
