Autorenporträt
Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818-1883) was a prominent Russian novelist, short story writer, and playwright. He is regarded as one of the greatest figures in Russian literature and is particularly known for his nuanced characterizations, lyrical prose, and exploration of social and political issues. Turgenev's literary career began with poetry and short stories, but he gained widespread recognition with his collection of short stories, "A Sportsman's Sketches" (also known as "Sketches from a Hunter's Album"), published in 1852. This work, which depicted the harsh realities of serfdom and the lives of Russian peasants, is credited with influencing public opinion and contributing to the abolition of serfdom in 1861. Notable Works. "A Month in the Country" (¿¿¿¿¿ ¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿) (1855): This play is a psychological exploration of unrequited love and the complexities of human emotions. It remains a staple in Russian theater. Turgenev was part of the group of Russian writers who brought Russian literature to international prominence in the 19th century. He was a contemporary of Fyodor Dostoevsky and Leo Tolstoy, and although his works were less intense and philosophical than those of his peers, they were widely admired for their elegance and realism. Ivan Turgenev died on September 3, 1883, in Bougival, near Paris, France. His legacy endures through his contributions to Russian literature and his exploration of universal human themes.
