| | Ivan S. Turgenev |
 | | Although Turgenev has been overshadowed by his contemporaries Fyodor Dostoevsky and Leo Tolstoy, he remains one of the major figures of the 19th-century Russian literature. |  | | After the success of two of his story-poems, Turgenev devoted himself to literature, country pursuits, and travel. |  | | In these works central themes were the beauty of early love, failure to reach one's dreams, and frustrated love, which partly reflected the author's lifelong passion for Pauline. |

 | | Turgenev didn't bother writing "stories" in the accepted sense of the word when he wrote A Sportsman's Sketches (I'm using the title Hemingway knew; in more recent translations the book has been called A Sportsman's Notebook. |  | | I think that, with regard to Turgenev, this was the hook that drew Hemingway in. |  | | But once he was there, within Turgenev's world, Hemingway took something else away with him besides the enjoyment of a string of vignettes about a man out hunting. |

| | Ivan Turgenev's Singers - Introduction |
 | | The realism of Turgenev's manner, whether it be taken as respect for the observed fact or, in a more special sense, as the ability to focus the lens of his writer's eye with such precision that the subject acquires a dramatic immediacy, is admirably illustrated by Bezhin Lea (The Contemporary, No. |  | | Possibly because this Sketch was so critical, Turgenev did not publish it separately but included it among his collection of Sketches when they were first published as a separate edition in 1852. |  | | In 1852 they were published for the first time in a separate edition - a circumstance which led to Turgenev's arrest and subsequent exile to his estate of Spasskoye. |

 | | Turgenev, arrested and exiled in 1852 because of the 'Sketches', has an historical place akin to the American abolitionists of the same day, however, unlike Harriet Beecher Stowe, Turgenev draws his characters in three dimensions with humanity, with love and understanding even when he does not forgive them their moral failings. |  | | Turgenev reminds me of Thoreau in his devotions which are equally divided between nature and the forwarding of liberal ideas. |  | | It seems at times as if Turgenev is the only enlightened soul in Russia and yet he is absolutely civil even when with a pernicious landowner because he innately knows what is right and he trusts that we know as well. |

| | Books Walking in the shadow of Turgenev |
 | | His perambulations in search of Turgenev are, in the best tradition of literary pilgrimage, a journey of self-discovery, but there is something faintly irritating about his habit of comparing himself to the Russian writer at every turn. |  | | But of all the country's classic novelists whose works he devoured as a student in Moscow in the Sixties, none touched and inspired him as much as Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev, for whom he feels what TS Eliot described (of a writer's relationship to a forebear) as 'a profound kinship or, rather, a peculiar personal intimacy'. |  | | They are alike, he claims, because both came to civilised Europe from countries considered to be culturally poor; both knew what it meant to be excluded from the comforts of family life (though Dessaix is rather coy about his experience; he was once married, he says, but also talks about male lovers). |

| | Notes on Life and Letters - Turgenev |
 | | Since it came to an end the social and political events in Russia have moved at an accelerated pace, but the deep origins of them, in the moral and intellectual unrest of the souls, are recorded in the whole body of his work with the unerring lucidity of a great national writer. |  | | But I am aware of a few general truths, such as, for instance, that no man, whatever may be the loftiness of his character, the purity of his motives and the peace of his conscience--no man, I say, likes to be beaten with sticks during the greater part of his existence. |  | | Since, as you say yourself, he brings all his problems and characters to the test of love, we may hope that it will endure at least till the infinite emotions of love are replaced by the exact simplicity of perfected Eugenics. |

 | | Of course, Turgenev knew the value of generalizations and could criticize institutions such as serfdom, but without any silly utopian illusions: for he knew that Man was a fallen creature, capable of improvement, perhaps, but not of perfection. |  | | Turgenevs closest Russian friend, Pavel Annenkov, to whom he dedicated some of his work, knew Marx well in Brusselsand left an unflattering description of him. |  | | It is true that Marx, like Turgenev, is on the side of the underdog, of the man with nothing, but in a wholly disembodied way. |

 | | Mirsky observes in his discussion of Turgenev: "The, strong, pure, passionate, and virtuous woman, opposed to the weak, potentially generous, but ineffective and ultimately shallow man, was introduced into literature by Pushkin, and recurs again and again in the work of the realists, but nowhere more insistently than in Turgenev's" (192-93). |  | | The first form in which a tale appeared to him [Turgenev] was as the figure of one individual, or a combination of individuals, whom he wished to see in action, being sure that such people must do something very special and interesting. |  | | Cather must certainly have known of James's high opinion of Turgenev (reflected, for example, in his comment to Longfellow that Turgenev's tales were to his knowledge the best short stories ever written; Edel 175). |

 | | Once, while Dostoevsky was present, Turgenev depicted his meeting in the provinces with a person who imagined himself a genius, and painted the iridic side of the individual in a masterly fashion. |  | | Whereas, for Turgenev, it was the solid characters that were absolutely sure of their futurity, that Turgenev preferred to offer to his readers. |  | | For Dostoevsky, this was a weakness of Turgenev’s literature, because it avoided the actual realities of life. |

 | | In suggesting, however, that Turgenev's idea of transcendent love is ''foreign" to us, something that in our own era we can scarcely imagine or desire, perhaps he overreaches. |  | | Defying logic, Turgenev held to love as the last hope in the battle against time, decay, pointlessness. |  | | Living in an increasingly scientific, materialistic age -- a time when the soul ''was put on notice," Dessaix says -- Turgenev wondered whether love still mattered. |

| | Turgenev's early upbringing |
 | | Perhaps his mother's greatest contribution to Turgenev was her death in 1850, the result of which was a sizeable inheritance that, had he been a better manager of money, would have left him financially comfortable for the rest of his life (Lowe 1989, 22). |  | | His father, interested in other, more attractive women than his wife, died in 1834, leaving Ivan with his heavy-handed, hen-pecking mother whose cruel treatment of the family's serfs repulsed and repelled him (Moser 1972, 4). |  | | His early upbringing may have encouraged him to find in Byron a critic of society's ills, particularly the malaise of Russian serfdom in the 1820s and 1830s. |
