"Рудин" - роман Ивана Сергеевича Тургенева, герой которого пополняет галерею "лишних людей" XIX века. "Роман стал погребальным венком на гробе всех старых рассказов Тургенева о тех абстрактных русских натурах, устраняющихся и пассирующих перед явлениями, ими же и вызванными на свет".

Nella grande Russia conservatrice e patriarcale dei latifondi e dei primi timidi moti liberali, il rapporto conflittuale tra tradizione e rinnovamento trova una rappresentazione esemplare in "Padri e figli", pubblicato nel 1862. È la vicenda di due amici appena usciti dall'università di Pietroburgo: Arkadij Kirsanov, figlio di un proprietario terriero, e Evgenij Bazarov, il giovane medico che crede soltanto nelle scienze sperimentali, il nichilista, campione di una società di tecnici, che non è ancora nata.

"Remanso de paz" es una de las obras capitales del autor Iván Turguénev. En ella, el autor hace gala de los temas que acompañarán buena parte de su obra en la literatura y el teatro: el costumbrismo centrado en la vida rural de la Rusia de su época, la servidumbre del populacho, la frustración vital, el amor fallido y la crítica mordaz a la sociedad rusa. Un texto imprescindible para comprender los temas que obsesionaban al autor.

Turgenev wrote Fathers and Sons as a response to the growing cultural schism between liberals of the 1830s-1840s and the growing nihilist movement. Both the nihilists (the "sons") and the 1830s liberals (the "fathers") sought Western-based social change in Russia. These two modes of thought were contrasted with the Slavophiles, who believed that Russia's path lay in its traditional spirituality. Fathers and Sons, which might be considered as the first really modern novel in Russian literature, enraged everyone when it was published.

Arguably Turgenev's greatest work and certainly one of the most controversial Russian novels ever written, Fathers and Sons incited protests from all branches of Russian society.
