Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev (18181883) was a Russian novelist, short story writer, poet, playwright, translator and popularizer of Russian literature in the West. His first major publication, a short story collection entitled A Sportsmans Sketches (1852), was a milestone of Russian realism, and his novel Fathers and Sons (1862) is regarded as one of the major works of 19thcentury fiction. Turgenev was impressed with German CentralEuropean society, and believed that Russia could best improve itself by imitating the West. He first made his name with A Sportsmans Sketches, also known as Sketches From a Hunters Album or, Notes of a Hunter. He wrote several short novels like The Diary of a Superfluous Man, Faust, and The Lull. In them Turgenev expressed the anxieties and hopes of Russians of his generation.
