On Sunday, February 24, 1852, the epilogue to the tragicomedy which was N. V. Gogol's life was played out in the University Chapel in Moscow. Curiosity seekers, government officials, members of high society-"people who had not wanted to know Gogol during his lifetime," Khomiakov bitterly remarked later-thronged the final rites performed over the writer's emaciated body.
