The Government Inspector Play by Nikolai Vasil’evich Gogol (Farsi)

Description

The Government Inspector is a five-act satirical comedy by Nikolai Vasil’evich Gogol, published in 1836. Widely considered a pioneer of Russian theatrical realism, Gogol crafts a comedy of errors exposing human folly and bureaucratic corruption. In a small provincial Russian town, the mayor and officials panic upon hearing that an anonymous government inspector is arriving to investigate them. Mistakenly believing a young, harmless clerk, Khlestakov, to be the feared inspector, they scramble to bribe and impress him, revealing their greed, incompetence, and moral weakness. Through sharp satire, absurd situations, and witty dialogue, Gogol critiques political corruption and human vanity, making this play a timeless masterpiece of comedy and social commentary.
