1. A Survey Of Russian Literature, With Selections
With Selections
A compact, chronological overview of Russian literary development from its early origins through the 19th century and into the modern era, combining historical context, critical commentary, and biographical sketches with representative translated selections; it traces major movements and themes, introduces principal figures (from folk and medieval influences to Pushkin, Gogol, Lermontov, Turgenev, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Chekhov, and others), and aims to make Russian letters accessible to English-speaking readers by illustrating each period with key excerpts and explanatory notes.
