As an epoch of "censorship terror" drew to a close with the death of Nicholas I and the end of the Crimean War, Russian intellectuals had begun expressing their desires for political, philosophical, and religious reform through passionate debates over literature and esthetics. Charles Moser re-creates the leading controversies over literature and art during a crucial period that saw the work of such authors as Turgenev, Dostoevsky, and Tolstoy. Emphasizing particularly the years from 1862 to 1870, Moser presents the doctrines of lesser known and major figures from both liberal and conservative camps, which influenced the development of Socialist Realism and Russian Formalism.The debates presented begin with a discussion of an essay by Nikolay Chernyshevsky, "Esthetic Relations of Art to Reality," which set the stage for the entire period. Among the many topics examined by the author are the doctrines of the radical critic Dmitry Pisarev and the writings of his opponents, such as Nikolay Solovev and Evgeny Edelson.Originally published in 1989.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

The era of Russian Symbolism (1892-1917) has been called the Silver Age of Russian culture, and even the Second Golden Age. Symbolist authors are among the greatest Russian authors of this century, and their activities helped to foster one of the most significant advances in cultural life (in poetry, prose, music, theater, and painting) that has ever been seen there. This book is designed to serve as an introduction to Symbolism in Russia, as a movement, an artistic method, and a world view.

This book is the first detailed history of the Russian Symbolist movement, from its initial hostile reception as a symptom of European decadence to its absorption into the mainstream of Russian literature, and eventual disintegration. It focuses on the two generations of writers whose work served as the seedbed of Existentialism in thought and of Modernism in prose and the performing arts, and reassesses their achievements in the light of modern research. At the centre of the study are the texts themselves, with prose quoted in English translation and poetry given in the original Russian with prose translations. There is a valuable bibliography of primary sources and an extensive chronological appendix. This book will fill a long-felt gap, and will be invaluable to students and teachers of Russian and comparative literature, Symbolism, Modernism, and pre-revolutionary Russian culture.

Qu'est-ce que le réalisme socialiste ? Comment cette esthétique a-t-elle émergé dans la société soviétique des années trente, comment a-t-elle été mise en oeuvre dans la littérature ? Est-il vrai que le pouvoir politique, en l'occurrence Staline, l'a imposée aux écrivains par l'intermédiaire de M. Gor'kii ? Si - et c'est l'une des thèses du livre - le réalisme socialiste opère la rencontre de directives du sommet avec ce qui se cherche et provient du tréfonds de la culture soviétique, comment ce syncrétisme se réalise-t-il ? Le livre comble une immense lacune car il n'existe pas à ce jour, en français, d'ouvrages de synthèse sur le réalisme socialiste des années trente et son émergence dans la société soviétique. Dans un langage accessible, ce travail se veut à la fois une approche sociologique, sociocritique et sémiologique de la littérature soviétique et de cette esthétique du lisible, de la transparence de la langue et de la représentation. Cherchant à la fois les ruptures et les continuités avec les fondements de la critique sociale et esthétique du dix-neuvième siècle russe, il met l'accent sur les réalisations et les apories du réalisme socialiste en littérature, il retrace l'odyssée du héros positif du dix-neuvième siècle à la fin des années trente, de Turgenev à Sholokhov. Le réalisme socialiste se voulait une synthèse entre le grand réalisme du dix-neuvième siècle et le romantisme révolutionnaire, il voulait combiner le souffle épique de la constitution de l'homme nouveau et la prose de la quotidienneté. Le livre s'attache à montrer les difficultés de l'entreprise dans le contexte du stalinisme culturel et l'alliance impossible du didactisme et de la littérarité.
