Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Novels and Stories of Iván Turgénieff: Spring Freshets and Others Stories Whole series of lesser stories written during the last fifteen or twenty years of the author´s life. In them the poet subjects to microscopic and profoundly-artistic analysis the idea of the marvellous. He scrutinises the supernatural in its relations both with the accidents and the self-deception of human conceit (in the story" Knock... Knock ... Knock," in this connection, he even bears himself with the greatest scepticism and incredulity toward the supernatural), as also with covetous deception and crime("The Story of Lieutenant Ergunoff"), and with magnetism("A Strange Story," and "The Song of Love Triumphant") ;and, in conclusion, as the manifestation and action of a spirit("The Dog," and "Father Alexyei´s Story") With a vivid interest which grips the heart, and with profound, though hidden and painful sympathy, does Turgenieff depict mans tendency toward the marvellous, his thirst for the supernatural, the immortal. One of the author´s favourite themes was a weak man bowing down before a strong woman. This he used in "Rudin," "Smoke," "The Region of Dead Calm," "The End of Tchertop-khanofT," and in "Spring Freshets."
