Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev

This "Critical Edition" of "Fathers and Sons", translated and edited by Michael R. Katz, is accompanied by a selection of Turgenev's letters, illustrating his involvement in the critical storm that surrounded "Fathers and Sons" upon its publication in 1862. It also includes 16 critical essays that cover various themes such as: the issue of translation; Turgenev's liberalism and his attitude towards nihilism and revolution; Turgenev's use of imagery; the role of women; the conflict of generations and the impact of science. A chronology and selected bibliography are also provided.
Michael R. Katz is the C. V. Starr Professor Emeritus of Russian and East European Studies at Middlebury College. He has translated over twenty Russian novels, including The Brothers Karamazov, Crime and Punishment, Fathers and Children, and Notes from Underground.
