8) Male servants, the slaves of livery, were easily known; but female ones, as at
least one contemporary male disapprovingly noted, and tried to prevent, were
allowed considerable licence at this date. Many a gentleman entering a strange
drawing-room had the mortification of bowing politely to what he supposed a

lady intimate of his hostess, only to find he was wasting fine manners on a mere
female domestic.

a) One hot spring evening, just as the sun was going down, two men appeared at
Patriarch’s Ponds. (1)
Comm.: Patriarchs Ponds a real location in the heart of old Moscow. While
this was a place where Bulgakov spent a lot of time when he first came to
Moscow, the location has double significance for the novel it is named in
honor of the Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church. Most of the places
Bulgakov describes in this novel can still be found in todays Moscow (although
many street names have changed), which has led to an entire Bulgakov tour
industry. However, sometimes the author moves streets when it suits him, and
relocates buildings, thus befuddling many critics who want the topography to be
entirely accurate. Bulgakov consciously mixes realia of Moscow life typical of
both the 1920s and 1930s. (1)
b) At the hour of the hot spring sunset two citizens appeared at the Patriarch’s
Ponds. (2)
Comm.:

a) The first man was none other than Mikhail Alexandrovich Berlioz, editor of a
literary magazine and chairman of the board of one of Moscows largest
literary associations, known by its acronym, MASSOLIT, and his young
companion was the poet Ivan Nikolayevich Ponyryov, who wrote under the
pen name Bezdomny. (1)
Comm.: Mikhail Alexandrovich Russian names are formally given as first,
patronymic, and last. When respect is being accorded, the full first name and
patronymic are used. Berliozs initials match Bulgakovs own.
MASSOLIT a very funny acronym in Russian, which might be best conveyed
in English as LOTSALIT. Bulgakov found the Soviet passion for acronyms very
funny, and made up various absurd ones throughout his career, although the real
ones were bizarre enough.
Bezdomny this name literally means Homeless, and brings to mind an entire
series of famous pseudonyms, starting with Maksim Gorky (the Bitter) and
ending with Demyan Bedny (the Poor). Bedny is apposite in that he was
known for especially egregious antireligious works, such as the 1925 The New
Testament without Defects of the Evangelist Demyan. Although some have
sought historical prototypes for every character in the novel, few of those
suggested for the main characters are convincing. Bulgakovs main characters
tend to be a blend of many sources, and sometimes are deliberate abstractions
(the Master himself is a good example of this). Minor characters, however, do
tend to have recognizable sources in a single figure. (1)
b) The first was none other than Mikhail Alexandrovich Berlioz, editor of a fat
literary journal and chairman of the board of one of the major Moscow
literary associations, called Massolit for short, and his young companion was
the poet Ivan Nikolayevich Ponyrev, who wrote under the pseudonym of
Homeless. (2)
