eBooks di Ivan Turgenev editi da Forgotten Books

Ivan Turgenev (1818-1883) è considerato uno dei padri della letteratura russa. Nato a Orël, si specializzò in studi classici alle Università di Mosca e Pietroburgo, per poi trasferirsi all’Università di Berlino per proseguire gli studi di filosofia. Tornato in patria, si distinse per le sue posizioni progressiste e filo-occidentali, schierandosi a favore dell’abolizione della servitù della gleba. Visse gran parte della vita tra la Germania e Parigi, dove strinse una salda amicizia con Gustave Flaubert. Conobbe anche Tolstoj e Dostoevskij, con i quali ebbe un rapporto a tratti burrascoso e conflittuale. Tra le sue opere ricordiamo Memorie di un cacciatore (1852), Nido di nobili (1859) e Padri e figli (1862).

A Sportsman's Sketches. E-book. Formato PDF Ivan Turgenev   -  Forgotten Books, 2017  - 

This edition of Ivan Turgenev's best known work contains fourteen of the twenty-five sketches which appear in the full two-volume editions. A selection has been made of the best and includes all those in which the ?avour of the open air is strongly marked. The editor has been fortunate in being able to arrange to use Mrs. Constance Garnett's translation, which is by far the best rendering in English that has been made. Translators of Russian commonly fail in one of two ways. Either their efforts to preserve the finer shades of meaning of the original text result in English which is forced and artificial, or the desire to render colloquially the method of speech of the Russian peasant entirely destroys the character of the author's style. Mrs. Garnett avoids both these pitfalls; for while her rendering leaves nothing to be desired as regards the quality of the English, the subtle nuances of the Russian text are.
