Prince Serebryany: A Tale of the Times of Ivan the Terrible

With his fate and character, Ivan the Terrible riddled a very important riddle to subsequent generations. And Alexei Konstantinovich Tolstoy (1817-1875) devoted colossal creative efforts to finding the answer, including the story "Prince Silver". How does he paint the tsar? Is he a cruel tyrant or a strict judge, put by God himself to preserve order in the Russian land? Is he sincere or hypocritical before the people and before himself? And how can one person, even vested with the royal dignity, define a whole epoch? Is the tyrant solely responsible for the despicable and terrible time? Or maybe the fear of the people, internal slavery, the need for an all-powerful "khan" who will take responsibility for everything? Conclusions should be drawn by the readers.
For middle and high school age.
