Some of the greatest novels of the 19th century were written by Russians. The Russian prose tradition developed rapidly; in as little as 50 years, it moved from Pushkin's brilliant, condensed novel in verse, EUGENE ONEGIN, to Tolstoy's masterpiece, ANNA KARENINA. We will trace its growth from short stories to long novels, noting the constraints of tsarist censorship. Russian writers' awareness of their belatedness in relationship to Western Europe will be examined through their dialogue with French realism. |
