Denis Ivanovich Fonvizin was a talented prose writer, a courageous publicist, a hardworking translator, a notable statesman, but in the history of Russian literature, he entered the history of Russian literature primarily as a playwright, and first of all - as the author of the unfading "Nedorosl", almost the only comedy of the XVIII century, which is still staged in theaters and causes a lively reaction of the public. "The success of the comedy "Nedorosl" was decisive. Moral action of her undoubtedly. Some of the names of the actors have become nouns and are used to this day in the popular appeal - wrote P. A. Vyazemsky in 1830. - If it is true that Prince Potemkin, after the first presentation of "Undergrowth", said to the author: "Die, Denis, or no more nothing else do not write!" - then it is a pity that these words were prophetic and that Fonvizin did not write more for the theater". (The comedies, on which Fonvizin worked after "Nedoroslya", were not finished.) The edition combines dramatic works by D. I. Fonvizin, as well as materials prepared by him for the magazine "Friend of honest people, or Starodum", banned by the censorship.
