''Mirgorod'' ((ロシア語:Миргород)) is a collection of short stories written by Nikolai Gogol, composed between 1832-1834 and first published in 1835.〔Peace, Richard (1981). ''The Enigma of Gogol: An Examination of the Writings of N.V. Gogol and Their Place in the Russian Literary Tradition''. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. p. 28.〕 It was significantly revised and expanded by Gogol for an 1842 edition of his complete works.〔Setchkarev, Vsevolod (1965). ''Gogol: His Life and Works''. New York: New York University Press. p.136.〕 The title ''Mirgorod'' refers to the Ukrainian city of the same name. It is also the setting for the final story in the collection, “The Tale of How Ivan Ivanovich Quarreled with Ivan Nikiforovich”. The title reflects the stories’ portrayal of provincial Ukrainian life, similar to Gogol’s successful previous collection, ''Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka''. To solidify this connection between the two works, he attached the subtitle: “Stories which are a continuation of the ''Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka''.”〔Magarshack, David. (1957) ''Gogol: A Life.'' London: Faber and Faber. p.121.〕 ==Stories== The collection is a cycle of four stories, divided into two volumes: Part One # "Old World Landowners" («Старосветские помещики») # "Taras Bulba" («Тарас Бульба») Part Two # "Viy" («Вий») # "The Tale of How Ivan Ivanovich Quarreled with Ivan Nikiforovich" («Повесть о том, как поссорился Иван Иванович с Иваном Никифоровичем») 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mirgorod (Gogol)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
