Download or read book Russian Literature Classic Reprint written by Horace P. Biddle and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russian Literature Since the Crimean'war, in 1855, the power of Russia, although it suffered in that contest, has been much more noticed by other nations than it had been before; and since the abolition of serfdom in her dominion, in 1861, her government has become a study for other statesmen besides her own: but no nation yet has given her literature more than a pass ing notice. The reason may be plain. 'her great military power is felt by the world, and her policy, in reference to the law of nations, has its influence, but her literature, which will ultimately represent the best results of all. Her powers, is not yet established. Perhaps her banner may yet wave, her policy rule, and her language be heard, from the chilling snows of Siberia to the burning rays of Good hopel - for she is rapidly availing herself of the science, art, and skill of other nations - if so, then her literature will be known to the world; for the school and college, in the range of time, are more powerful than the cabinet and the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of Russian Literature But in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, the existence of this growing barrier was not yet perceptible. The eleventh and twelfth centuries in Russia were an age of Sagas and Byliny, already clearly stamped with the democratic character and ideal that is at the root of all Russian literature, and which offer so sharp a contrast to Greek and Western ideals. In the Russian Sagas, the most popular hero is the peasant's son, who is despised and rejected, but at the critical moment displays superhuman strength and saves his country from the enemy; and in return for his services is allowed to drink his fill for three years in a tavern.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to Russian Literature: 1820 1917 The fact that a book has not been translated into Eng lish could not serve as a reason for excluding it from the Guide, as the list of translations is steadily growing and as the volume is intended to be of service not only to the general reader but also to publishers and translators. Moreover, in most cases it would be profitable to read a chapter devoted even to an untranslated author, as this may help in understanding the general tendencies in Rus sian literature and the drift of Russian thought.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Masters of Russian Literature in the Nineteenth Century But these trivialities, dressed in graceful idioms, are simply charming. To touch them, to analyze them, is like touching a soap-bubble. Fortunately, M. Dupuy has also all the Gallic acuteness and cleverness bf illus tration and, in spite of occasional glittering, illusive triteness, there is a solid basis of value, which remains even when the scintillations are dulled, when the iri descence is obscured by the veil of translation. His skill in giving the gist of a book is thoroughly characteristic and that, it is to be hoped, shines through the English.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russian Anthology in English The purpose of this anthology is to offer to English and American readers in an adequate translation examples of the best in Russian literature. In compiling it, I have endeavoured to steer a course between several diverging currents. One method I have rejected is to set out a multitude of extracts in chronological order in the hope of illustrating by them the progress of Russian literature from its birth to its lusty prime. Such a compilation, however, is of real interest to no one but historians. Another plan was to devote separate sections to Russian prose, Russian verse and Russian drama.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russia's Gift to the World In any account of Russian literature, two kinds of it have to be considered which are historically separate, though the one to some extent grew out of and is founded upon the other. There is the early popular literature of tales, ballads, and poems which grew up among the people, was handed down by memory, and very often was not committed to writing at all until modern times. There is also the regular literature of books, which begins when language has been studied as an art and reduced to rules. This latter is the form which literature takes in modern times. In both forms the recox d of Russia is extraordinarily rich. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Landmarks Revisited written by Robin Aizlewood and published by Academic Studies PRess. This book was released on 2019-08-28 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vekhi (Landmarks) symposium (1909) is one of the most famous publications in Russian intellectual and political history. Its fame rests on the critique it offers of the phenomenon of the Russian intelligentsia in the period of crisis that led to the 1917 Russian Revolution. It was published as a polemical response to the revolution of 1905, the failed outcome of which was deemed by all the Vekhi contributors to exemplify and illuminate fatal philosophical, political, and psychological flaws in the revolutionary intelligentsia that had sought it. Landmarks Revisited offers a new and comprehensive assessment of the symposium and its legacy from a variety of disciplinary perspectives by leading scholars in their fields. It will be of compelling interest to all students of Russian history, politics, and culture, and the impact of these on the wider world.
