Peter und Alexej

by Dmitry Merezhkovsky

"Peter und Alexej" von Dmitry Merezhkovsky ist ein ergreifendes Werk, das die tiefe Verbindung zwischen Peter dem Großen und seinem treuen Gefährten Alexej untersucht. Inmitten der prächtigen Pracht des russischen Zarenreiches des 18. Jahrhunderts entfaltet sich eine Geschichte von Freundschaft, Leidenschaft und Macht. Das Buch beginnt mit einem ungewöhnlichen Treffen zwischen Peter und Alexej, zwei Männer aus sehr unterschiedlichen Welten. Während Peter der visionäre und expansiven Zar ist, ist Alexej ein bescheidener Mönch, der sich den Künsten und den Wissenschaften verschrieben hat. Doch trotz ihrer Unterschiede entsteht zwischen ihnen eine tiefe Verbindung, die die Grenzen von Status und Konventionen sprengt.
