Eugene Onegin, a narrative poem by Alexander Pushkin, is often regarded as his greatest work and a landmark of Russian literature. Written intermittently from 1823 to 1831, the poem is considered a masterpiece for its insightful portrayal of Russian society and its timeless depiction of love, regret, and the clash of characters and ideals. Pushkin’s creation of Tatyana, the heroine, is especially notable, as she is viewed as the precursor to many of the compelling Russian women that would later appear in works by writers such as Turgenev, Dostoyevsky, and Tolstoy. This enduring legacy has made Eugene Onegin an essential text for students of Russian literature.
The current translation draws heavily on Professor Patrick’s meticulous prose version, which was carefully reviewed for accuracy. While earlier English translations have existed, such as Lieutenant-Colonel Spalding’s 1881 edition, this translation aims to preserve the natural flow and grace of Pushkin's original. Pushkin’s rhyme scheme, which follows a distinctive fourteen-line stanza with a specific rhyme pattern, has been adapted here to fit English while maintaining its musicality. The diction is intentionally informal to match Pushkin’s ease of expression, with slight adjustments made for cultural nuances, especially in the portrayal of Tatyana’s courageous declarations of love. This version also integrates Pushkin’s original notes and helpful commentary to ensure readers can fully appreciate the depth of the poem.
