'versiegelte Engel' Summary
Nikolai Leskov erzählt in "Versiegelte Engel" die Geschichte eines Gastes, der in einer russischen Herberge von der Beschlagnahme aller Heiligenbilder seiner altgläubigen Gemeinde durch die Behörden berichtet. Getrieben von seinem Glauben und dem Wunsch, die wichtigste Engels-Ikone zurückzuholen, begibt er sich mit einem Begleiter auf eine abenteuerliche Reise. Der Roman schildert die gefährliche Reise durch das winterliche Russland, die Begegnungen mit verschiedenen Menschen und die Herausforderungen, denen die Reisenden begegnen. Leskov zeigt die tiefen Wurzeln des christlichen Glaubens im russischen Volk, insbesondere die Schwierigkeiten und die Widerstandsfähigkeit der Altgläubigen, die im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert von der staatlichen Verfolgung betroffen waren. Durch die Geschichte der Engels-Ikone und die Reise des Gastes beleuchtet Leskov auch die Bedeutung der Ikonenmalerei und ihre Rolle in der russischen Kultur und Religion.Book Details
