Karamzin's novella "Poor Liza," written in 1792, tells the typical story of a young girl seduced and abandoned by a wealthy nobleman, serving as a moral lesson for young ladies of that time, reflected in many classic works of world literature. Karamzin infused the tragedy with national color, imbuing the sentimental story with the depth, contradictions, and passion of the Russian soul, capturing the desperate drive to challenge life's paradoxes. Another sentimental novella by Karamzin, "Natalya, the Boyar's Daughter," resonates strongly with "Poor Liza."

Among them are "Melidor to Philalet," "Thoughts on Solitude," "A Letter from a Rural Resident," and a series of topical publications in the "Vestnik of Europe" magazine
