About this book
Turgenev: A Study is by Edward Garnett, with a foreword by Joseph Conrad. The heading of Chapter III names “A Sportsman’s Sketches”, “Nature and Man” and the secret of Turgenev’s art. The text says Grigorovitch’s novel The Village (1846), which painted the wretched life of the serfs, marked the changing current of social ideas.
The study says that because Madame Zvyerkoff makes it a rule never to keep married lady’s maids, poor Arina is disgraced, her lover sent away as a soldier, and she herself is married to the miller, who has offered a price for her. The study says Virgin Soil gives us the historical justification of the Nihilist movement, and the prophecy of its surface failure. The study mentions M. Haumant’s Ivan Tourguénief, la vie et l’œuvre, calling it a volume painstaking and well documented, assuredly of great interest to the student.
