Inhalt:
This volume explores Ivan Turgenev's relationship to nature through his conception, description, and practice of hunting - the most unquenchable passion of his life. Informed by an ecocritical perspective, the book takes an approach that is equal parts interpretive and documentarian, grounding the author's observations thoroughly in Russian cultural and linguistic context and a wide range of Turgenev's fiction, poetry, correspondence, and other writings. Included within the book are some of Turgenev's important writings on nature - never previously translated into English.
