This book focuses on four thematic configurations: first ("Chance and Fate"), issues of freedom and responsibility, the necessity of free individual expression and yet the limits of will, or self-will; second ("Two Kinds of Beauty"), the unity of moral, esthetic, and spiritual categories, and the quest for the ideal; third ("Critical Perspectives"), examples of the type of commentary that approaches art with a unified ethical and spiritual perspective (Dostoevsky, Gorky, V.I. Ivanov, and the partially dissenting Bakhtin); and fourth ("Poems of Parting"), three poems (works by Tyutchev, Severyanin, and Pushkin) involving parting, loss, and recovery. 410 0$aArs Rossika. 517 $aClose Encounters 606 $aRussian literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAnthologies 615 0$aRussian literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAnthologies. 676 $a081 700 $aJackson$b Robert Louis$0713487 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476783303321 996 $aClose encounters$91888075 997 $aUNINA
