Nikolai Karamzin's *Poor Liza* is one of the finest examples of Russian sentimental literature, and Liza is its central character. She represents innocence, purity, emotional sincerity, and selfless love. Through her character, Karamzin highlights the values of compassion, morality, and the emotional depth of ordinary people. Liza's tragic fate also reflects the social inequalities and moral conflicts of eighteenth-century Russian society. Liza is a young peasant girl who lives with her aged and widowed mother. After the death of her father, she becomes the sole support of the family. She earns a living by selling flowers, knitting, and performing other simple tasks. Her willingness to work hard for her mother's welfare demonstrates her sense of responsibility, devotion, and honesty. She never complains about poverty and accepts her difficult life with patience and dignity. Her love and respect for her mother reveal her strong moral values and compassionate nature. One of Liza's most remarkable qualities is her innocence. Having grown up in a simple rural environment, she believes in the goodness of people and approaches life with complete trust. She has little understanding of deception or selfishness. This innocence makes her emotionally attractive but also leaves her vulnerable to exploitation. Karamzin portrays her as a symbol of natural virtue, untouched by the corruption
