Michel Strogoff = Michel Strogoff (Extraordinary Voyages #14), Jules Verne Michael Strogoff is a novel written by Jules Verne in 1876. Critics, including Leonard S. it is not science fiction, but a scientific phenomenon is a plot device. Michael Strogoff, a 30-year-old native of Omsk, is a courier for Tsar Alexander II of Russia. The Tartar Khan (prince), incites a rebellion and separates the Russian Far East from the mainland, severing telegraph lines. Rebels encircle Irkutsk, where the local governor, a brother of the Tsar, is making a last stand. Strogoff is sent to Irkutsk to warn the governor about the traitor Ivan Ogareff, a former colonel, who was once demoted and exiled and now seeks revenge against the imperial family. He intends to gain the governor's trust and then betray him to the Tartar hordes. On his way to Irkutsk, Strogoff meets Nadia Fedor, daughter of an exiled political prisoner, Basil Fedor, who has been granted permission to join her father at his exile in Irkutsk, the English war correspondent Harry Blount of the Daily Telegraph and Alcide Jolivet, a Frenchman reporting for his 'cousin Madeleine'. Blount and Jolivet tend to follow the same route as Michael, separating and meeting again all the way through Siberia. He is supposed to travel under a false identity, posing as the pacific merchant Nicolas Korpanoff but he is discovered by the Tartars when he meets his mother in their home city of Omsk. Michael, his mother and Nadia are eventually captured by the Tartar forces, along with thousands of other Russians, during the storming of a city in the Ob basin. The tartars do not know Strogoff by sight, but Ogareff is aware of the courier's mission and when he is told that Strogoff's mother spotted her son in the crowd and called his name, but received no reply, he understands that Strogoff is among the captured and devises a scheme to force the mother to indicate him. Strogoff is indeed caught and handed over to the Tartars, and Ogareff alleges that Michael is a spy, hoping to have him put to death in some cruel way. After opening the Koran at random, Feofar decides that Michael will be blinded as punishment in the Tartar fashion, with a glowing hot blade. For several chapters the reader is led to believe that Michael was indeed blinded, but it transpires in fact that he was saved from this fate (his tears at his mother evaporated and saved his corneas) and was only pretending. ... تاریخ نخستین خوانش: ماه فوریه سال 2004 میلادی عنوان: میشل استروگف، نویسنده: ژول ورن؛ مترجمها: محمدتقی دانیا، ایرج حیدری، مسعود گلزاری، محمدرضا پارسایار؛ قدیر گلکاریان، فرزانه رشاد، فرناز شجاعی، مجید ریاحی؛ صدف محسنی؛ آوانس خان به اهتمام حسن حسینعلی؛ ناصر ایراندوست؛ ژول ورن نگارگر سرآمد روزگار خویش، «میشل استروگوف» را در سال 1876 میلادی بنوشتند، داستانی هیجان انگیز است. قهرمان داستان یک افسر روسی به نام «میشل استروگوف» است. ایشان فرمانده ارتباطات تزار هستند. او مأمور می‌شود، تا پیام مهمی را به شهر دور افتاده ی «ایرکوتسک»، در سیبری شرقی، برساند. بر اثر تحریکات افسر پیشین گارد امپراتور، به نام: «ایوان اوگارف»، که خلع درجه شده، و در پی انتقام است، قبایل تاتار، شورش کرده، و پادگان «ایرکوتسک» را، در معرض تهدید قرار داده اند. رویدادهای غیرعادی، و فراز و نشیبهایی که، «میشل استروگوف»، طی سفرش، از میان دشتهای پهناور سیبری، و در راه مبارزه با «اوگارف»، با آنها رودررو می‌شود، موضوع صحنه های هیجان انگیز داستان است؛ بویژه صحنه ای که در آن قهرمان رمان، به چنگ «ایوان» می‌افتد، و دستور میدهند تا چشمهایش را میل بکشند، تا کورش کنند، ولی ایشان خوشبختانه بینایی خود را، حفظ می‌کند، و نیز صحنه ی پایان کار «ایوان» نیز، که برای پیشبرد نقشه هایش، خود را پیک تزار، جا می‌زند، به یاد ماندنی ست. شخصیت «استروگوف» هم که مظهر شجاعت و تهور و فداکاری کم نظیر است، و چیره دستی داهیانه ی داستان پرداز، تا پایان خوش ماجرا، خوانشگر را در اوج هیجان، نگاه می‌دارد، و وصف محیط نیمه وحشی دشتهای سیبری، بر جذبه ی رمان می‌افزاید. «ژول ورن»، با همکاری «دنری» نمایشنامه ای نیز، از این رمان تهیه کردند، که در سال 1880 میلادی بر صحنه آمد. نقل نمونه از متن کتاب: «روح تاتار در قلب منه. نه در لباسی که پوشیدم. ما هر کدوم راه خودمونو ادامه دادیم. تو به مقصد رسیدی. ولی من نرسیدم. شاید من میتونستم با تو دوست باشم.»؛ پایان نقل. ا. شربیانیSpecify Appertaining To Books Michael Strogoff (Extraordinary Voyages, #14)

Straight adventure novel, no science fiction. Easily one of Verne's better books, this is an underappreciated gem. Nadya, the 'damsel in distress' is a strong female character. The stalwart Michael must deliver a message from the czar to the governor of Siberia, about treachery afoot. He journeys through hostile Central Asian territory and is tortured. This is what we used to call strictly a "boy's book" and now, would possibly be considered a Young Adult novel. I read this many, many years ago,one of his quite different novels . interesting still
This is one of the books my mother, my sister and I read together when I was a child. We at least read it twice because we were found of Jules Verne.Mum and I decided to reread it together because that's the sort of story that need to be shared with people you love.This story is full of adventure, passion, angst... what better thing to have great family time together.Michel Strogoff is courageous, strong, passionate and faithful to his pledge till death. When the tsar gives him a secret mission,
This is the second time I read this book, and this is the second time I liked it. It has a corageuos hero, a noble heroine, and a cruel villain. The sad part is, I just discovered that my edition is a short one, so I hope to re-read it a third time in a better one, hopefully in French, to grasp entirely Verne's words.
A nice straightforward adventure novel, as Michael on a mission for the Czar has to basically travel from one end of Russia to the other before a traitor can give the enemy armies vital information.Michael is stoic to the point of having one facial expression, but he is determined, manly and good to his mother. His love interest is treated as a bit of a damsel, but proves to be every bit as tough as her boyfriend.What keeps this book from sinking under it's own weight is the two bickering
A classic adventure book, by a likewise classic author. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to read about an adventure of grand proportions. It's impossible not to get caught up in this story about danger, treachery, loyalty, companionship, and the unbreakable will of Michael Strogoff, in his quest to complete the mission given to him by the Czar.
