Father and Son

About This Novel
The events in "Fathers and Sons" took place in 1859, a year of frequent peasant uprisings and riots in Russia. Liberals and revolutionary democrats debated over solving the peasant problem, and the two social forces also broke apart due to their differences. Bazarov in the book is an intellectual from a civilian family and represents a revolutionary democrat. Opposite to Bazarov, Pavel Kirsanov came from the aristocracy and represented the progressive aristocratic liberals. The two disliked each other when they first met. They behaved differently and had different ideas, and they often argued. Pavel died after losing the duel with Bazarov, and Bazarov fell in love with Odintsova, which put him in a state of romanticism, which was contrary to the nihilism he believed in, destroyed his own theory, and died in contradiction. During the translation process of this book, we try to avoid using sentence patterns with complex structures and use concise and precise vocabulary for expression. It is not obscure and difficult to understand, so as to cultivate readers' reading habits and gain inspiration.
