Some of the characters in this novel are historical figures, but one should not look for historical accuracy in every episode, and in general, on every page of the work. Historical figures in this novel are just the “heroes of the author”, seen and appreciated by him, whether it be Prince Pavel Dmitrievich Tsitsianov or the young Persian prince and heir Abbas Mirza Qajar.
The historical flavor in this work is a reflection of the thoughts and everything felt by the author as he gets acquainted with the historical facts, and the reflection of the thoughts of everything felt by the author, and the historical heroes here are also “their own”, non-historical characters that exist only for the author.
Let historians not search for all the names, letters, various historical episodes and situations, since they will not find anything in the archives. Let them not pay attention to the strokes and details of the novel that do not coincide with the story. From this point of view, the author is comforted by the fact that there are many moments, according to the author, that coincide with history, important from the point of view of historicism, which is probably also a lot.
