Father and Son (a Collection of Famous Translations of World Literary Names)
by Turgenev
About This Novel
"Fathers and Sons" is one of Turgenev's greatest works and the pinnacle of his creative career. The novel creates the "old generation" of Kirshanov, the liberal aristocratic representative, and the "new generation" of the intellectual Bazarov. It demonstrates the brilliance of human nature through the conflict between the concepts of father and son, and reflects the relationship between "father and son" representing the power of different social classes. In addition to the relationship between the two generations of "father and son", the novel also reflects the conflict of ideas between the common people and the aristocracy, affirms the leading role of intellectuals in social change, and exposes the incompetence and emptiness of the aristocracy. After the publication of this work, it aroused fierce controversy in Russian society at that time.
