Alexander Pushkin's short novel is set during the reign of Catherine the Great, when the Cossacks rose up in rebellion against the Russian empress. Presented as the memoir of Pyotr Grinyov, a nobleman, The Captain's Daughter tells how, as a feckless youth and fledgling officer, Grinyov was sent from St. Petersburg to serve in a remote part of southern Russia. Traveling to take up this new post, Grinyov loses his shirt gambling and then loses his way in a terrible snowstorm, only to be guided to safety by a mysterious peasant. With impulsive gratitude Grinyov hands over his fur coat to his savior, never mind the cold. Arrived at Fort Belogorsk, Grinyov falls in love with Masha, the beautiful young daughter of his captain. Then Pugachev, leader of the Cossack rebellion, surrounds the fort. Resistance, he has made it clear, will be met by death. At once a fairy tale and a thrilling historical novel, this singularly Russian work of the imagination is also a timeless, universal, and very winning story of how love and duty can summon pluck and luck to confront calamity.… (més)
First person account of a young man coming of age and finding/rescuing his love. Pushkin uses the story to relate the history of a rebellion in Tsarist Russia. This edition comes with many footnotes to provide historical context. If one is unfamiliar (as I am) with this history, the story itself is a decent romantic tale but it is the inclusion of the larger context---very skillfully done here---that makes this special ( )
La hija del capitán es una novela histórica aunque narre hechos prácticamente contemporáneos a la vida de Pushkin. La obra está considerada como una de las mejores de la literatura rusa y, en palabras de Gogol, la pureza y la simplicidad alcanzan tal altura, que la verdad misma parece artificial y caricaturesca.
Recenzoj pri la traduko Citaĵo „ Valora verko. Ĝi unue montras al ni la vivadon de la aristokrataj oficiroj kaj ties morojn. Poste ni vidas manieron de rusa ribelo, „sensenca kaj senindulga“, kiel diras Puŝkin. La traduko estas modela. ” — 1927, g-K, La Socialisto, paĝo 72 Citaĵo „ La historio, similas multajn aliajn de la cara epoko; ĝi estas simple rakontita sen serĉado de komplikaĵoj, kelkaj teruraj revoluciaj scenoj en la Volga regiono. La figuro de l' ribelestro, kruela, diboĉema sed tamen sentema kaj foje nobla restas en la memoro. Bonega tradukado. ” — 1927(1965), Historio de Esperanto II, paĝo 626
The Captain’s Daughter was not at all what I expected from a Russian writer. My first Pushkin, and I really don’t know what to think. It is almost a farcical story about young love. It was easy reading, but not much depth to it; like watching a b-rate swashbuckler movie. ( )

Bisogna sapere che per me era stata fatta venire da Mosca una carta geografica. Essa era appesa alla parete senza essere mai adoperata, e da un pezzo mi tentava con l'ampiezza e la bontà del foglio. M'ero deciso a farne un aquilone e, profittando del sonno di Beaupré, mi ero messo al lavoro. Il babbo entrò nel momento stesso che applicavo una coda di stoppa al capo di Buona Speranza. Vedendo le mie esercitazioni di geografia, il babbo mi tirò un orecchio…
Allora egli si offrì d'insegnarmi a giocare al biliardo. «Questo, – egli diceva, – è indispensabile per noialtri militari. Durante una campagna, per esempio, arrivi in un paesetto; di che ti vuoi occupare? Non si può mica sempre picchiare gli ebrei. Per forza vai alla trattoria e ti metti a giocare al biliardo; e per questo bisogna saper giocare!»
