Contents Table of Contents; Preface; Chapter I: Fiction in Alexander's Russia: the social and cultural context; Chapter II: Literary circles, periodicals and the debate over prose; Chapter III: The eighteenth-century literary heritage; Chapter IV: Sentimentalism in early-nineteenth-century Russia: Karamzin's epigones and new trends in sentimental prose; Chapter V: Contemporary literary influences: pre-romantic and romantic trends; Conclusions; Bibliography; Index.
Summary Waiting for Pushkin provides the only modern history of Russian fiction in the early nineteenth century to appear in over thirty years. Prose fiction has a more prominent position in the literature of Russia than in that of any other great country. Although nineteenth-century fiction in particular occupies a privileged place in Russian and world literature alike, the early stages of this development have so far been overlooked. By combining a broad historical survey with close textual analysis the book provides a unique overview of a key phase in Russian literary history. Drawing on a wide rang.
