Prince Serebrenni
''Prince Serebrenni'' ((ロシア語:Князь Серебряный)) is a historical novel by Aleksey Konstantinovich Tolstoy, written in 1859-1861 and first published in ''The Russian Messenger'' magazine in 1862 (Nos. 8-10, August–October issues) where it was divided into parts I (chapters 1-19, in No. 8) and II (chapters 20-40, Nos. 9 and 10). Translated by Princess Galitzine for Chapmann & Hall, it came out in English in 1874.
''Prince Serebrenni'' (also known as ''The Silver Knight'', according to the alternative translation), a novel about 16th-century Russia, inspired by the works of Sir Walter Scott and the German Romantics, has become a popular book for adolescence in Russia. Acknowledging its limits as a historical document, critics invariably praised the way it "imbued the readership with the ideas of justice, honesty, nobleness and human dignity."
== Background ==
Aleksey Tolstoy has been for years intrigued by the theme which became the book's leitmotif: that of a struggle between Ivan the Terrible, the most cruel of all Russian monarchs, and boyarstvo, a community of high-ranked aristocrats who opposed the Tsar and his tyranny. Several of his poems and ballads, notably, ''Vasily Shibanov'' and ''Knyaz Mikhailo Repnin'', were investigating this historical dilemma. The death of Nikolai I and the emergence of the new atmosphere of openness prompted Tolstoy to set upon working on the novel about the disaster the absolute monarchy might bring.〔
