Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

Star Corsair (Ukrainian: Зоряний корсар, also known as Rings of the Serpent) is a science fiction and philosophical novel by Ukrainian Soviet writer Oles Berdnyk. Widely regarded by literary critics as the pinnacle of Berdnyk's work, the novel explores profound themes of human spirituality and societal evolution. An excerpt titled "Interstellar Nanny" was first published in 1961 in the Kyiv Russian-language newspaper Komsomolskoye Znamya. Another excerpt, "Last Judgment", appeared in 1965 in the journal Lyudyna i Svit. In 1968, the novella "Rebellion of the Cosmocrats" was published in Ranok, originally intended for an uncompleted fantastical novel-fairy tale, Judge and Love, but was incorporated into Star Corsair. In 1971, excerpts from the novella "UR" were published in the newspaper Moloda Hvardiya, which were included unchanged in the full novel published that year by Raduga Publishers. However, much of the print run was seized by Soviet censors and removed from libraries and bookstores. Despite this, the novel became a cult classic among the Ukrainian intelligentsia and was frequently republished, primarily by the Ukrainian diaspora, as well as in foreign languages. The first Russian translation was published in 1991. In the Ukrainian SSR, it was republished in 1989, followed by multiple reprints in independent Ukraine, including a 1995 edition alongside its sequel, Dazhboh's Tuning Fork.
