With an Introduction by Lionel Kelly, University of Reading.
Translated by C.J. Hogarth. Fathers and Sons is one of the greatest
nineteenth century Russian novels, and has long been acclaimed as
Turgenev's finest work. It is a political novel set in a domestic
context, with a universal theme, the generational divide between
fathers and sons. Set in 1859 at the moment when the Russian
autocratic state began to move hesitantly towards social and
political reform, the novel explores the conflict between the
liberal-minded fathers of Russian reformist sympathies and their
free-thinking intellectual sons whose revolutionary ideology
threatened the stability of the state. At its centre is Evgeny
Bazorov, a strong-willed antagonist of all forms of social
orthodoxy who proclaims himself a nihilist and believes in the need
to overthrow all the institutions of the state. As the novel
develops Bazarov's political ambitions become fatally meshed with
emotional and private concerns, and his end is a tragic failure.
The novel caused a bitter furore on its publication in 1862, and
this, a year later, drove Turgenev from Russia.
