AB The article considers the religious nature of the creative life of Nikolai Gogol (1809–1852) from a  philosophical  point  of  view.  The  writer’s  creative  life  is  understood  as  a  struggle  (bodily  and  spiritual) between God and the world, life and death. This struggle builds a kind of stage on which the writer’s life unfolds. In addition, the article takes up the perception and understanding of reality as “banality” (Rus. pošlost’), the demonism and atheism that are connected with it, the religious function of art, and the ways of seeking salvation (at various levels of experience and under differ-ent  guises:  the  salvation  of  the  world,  salvation  outside  the  world,  and  the  salvation  of  oneself).  Finally,  the  problem  of  religious  alienation  is  considered,  seen  through  the  prism  of  the  life  and  creative experience of Gogol.
