metadata.value: The literature approaches the first and second parts of the novel “Wretched Nicanor” as a
  work based on the facts of the biography of the author and on the traditions of the Russian
  and European literature. The central story of the novel is the story about the hero who saves
  beautiful girl. The courtship of the hero represents a model of a courteous novel, but it is
  expressed in the language of the sentimental literature. At the same time, the folk themes, images
  and situations are used in the description of the love stories: the characters meet the true
  and false helpers, they overcome obstacles; Aneta, like a bride in a fairy tale, is in a kind of the
  world of death where she is waiting for the bridegroom; Nicanor has to take actions that are
  interpreted as tests for the groom. Though the fairy-tale “code” is the basis of the plot, it is a
  failure. For example, Anete is opposed to Eleanor, who is pretty and wise. Her function is to be
  a rival and an assistant. Eleanor allows us also to see the comic episodes of Nicanor’s gallantry.
  The fiance, the knight, the sensitive hero of sentimental literature, the adventurous hero of
  the Greek novel — the author of “Wretched Nicanor” look for the literary forms adequate to
  describe life. This search shows that the ready models have been experienced by the writer of
  the late XVIII century as a form which is not able to describe and explain the endless process
  of human being.
