The immortal comedy by A. S. Griboyedov is not just an outstanding work of Russian classical literature, opening its brilliant 19th century. It is not just a caustic satire, whose characters have not gone into the past to this day - who is not familiar with the modern Famusovs and Molchalins, and the Chatskys too. It is not just a priceless treasure trove of catchphrases and expressions, keenly caught by the ears of our compatriots - we easily understand each other, throwing out in passing: "Pass us more than all sorrows and the lordly anger, and the lordly love", "The legend is fresh, but hard to believe", "We are making noise, brother, we are making noise!"; we know exactly what it means to read like a sexton, even though many have never seen a sexton, and we will not be mistaken in who Princess Marya Alekseyevna is, although Griboyedov did not bring her onto the stage. "Woe from Wit" is, without exaggeration, a basic element of our cultural code, something that unites those who speak and think in Russian.
The textbook text is successfully supplemented by its most famous critical analysis - "A Million Torments" by I. A. Goncharov, included in the program of in-depth study of Russian literature. And the magnificent colorful illustrations by D. N. Kardovsky, distinguished by careful elaboration of faces and details of the interior and costumes, will help the reader to clearly imagine the characters.
