Symbolism and Themes in Aleksandr Pushkin’s “Queen of Spades”
[ send me this paper ]
This 20 page report discusses one of the best-known of Aleksandr
Pushkin’s (1799-1837) short stories and focuses on the symbolism
and thematic content it presents. “The Queen of Spades” was
written in 1834, only a few short years before he was to die in
a duel over his socialite wife. It is the ironic story of a
compulsive gambler, Hermann, who will stop at nothing to obtain a
Countess’s secrets on how to win in card games. When he
eventually learns the secret and bets heavily upon it, he finds
himself holding the wrong card and loses everything. In the
opera, he kills himself; in the original story by Pushkin, he
goes mad and ends his days in an asylum, repeating the three
cards he should have drawn and the three he did draw over and
over again. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
