Eugene Onegin

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.06 sec.

Eugene Onegin

Novel in verse by Aleksandr Pushkin, published 1823–31. Eugene Onegin, bored with life but sensitive, rejects the love of Tatanya, a humble country girl; she later rises in society and in turn rejects him. Onegin was the model for a number of Russian literary heroes.

Eugene Onegin

Opera by Tchaikovsky (libretto by composer and K S Shilovsky, based on Aleksandr Pushkin's poem-novel), first produced by students of the Conservatory, Moscow, Russia, on 29 March 1879. Its first professional performance was at the Bolshoi Theatre, Moscow, on 23 January 1881. It tells how Onegin rejects Tatiana's proposal by letter, but realizes too late by Act III that he loves her after all; she is now married to Prince Gremin.
