With this quotation, Gogol flags the story's preoccupation with status and rank, as well as the story's acknowledgment of itself as a work of art. "As for his rank (for with us rank must be announced first of all), he was what is called an eternal titular councillor, at whom, as is known, all sorts of writers have abundantly sneered and jeered, having the praiseworthy custom of exerting themselves against those who can't bite."
