Boris Godunov. Con testo russo a fronte

The play delves into the dark side of ambition and legitimacy. I wonder what historical or personal influences led Pushkin to explore these themes.

His guilt and paranoia felt very real, almost like a character study. Did the depiction of his mental state resonate differently for others?

The interplay between individual voices and collective sentiment adds depth, but I’m curious how others interpret their impact on the storytelling.
