Väter und Söhne (russisch Отцы и дети / Transkription Otzy i deti) ist der bekannteste Roman von Iwan Turgenew. Er wurde 1861 geschrieben; im selben Jahr hatte der russische Zar Alexander II. die Leibeigenschaft abgeschafft. Turgenew stellte in diesem Roman schon die neuen Verhältnisse und Anschauungen der jüngeren Generation dar, die der „Söhne“ (korrekt übersetzt heißt der Roman eigentlich „Väter und Kinder“). Der Romanstoff behandelt die gesellschaftlichen Konflikte zwischen den liberalen Slawophilen und den westlich orientierten Nihilisten und führte nach der Veröffentlichung im zaristischen Russland zu literarischen Kontroversen, die Turgenew veranlassten, sein Land zu verlassen.

Work Description
Fathers and Sons takes the conflict between generations as its subject. The novel's central characters, Yevgeny Bazarov and his disciple and fellow student, Arkady Kirsanov, are self-proclaimed Nihilists: repudiators of all the received truths of art, religion, and politics-all claims to truth, in fact, except those verifiable by scientific experiment. Turgenev thrusts his snarling young radicals into the venerable world of fathers when Bazarov accompanies Arkady to the Kirsanov country estate. The visit inevitably turns sour, and Arkady's Uncle Pavel and Bazarov find themselves at one another's metaphysical throats. Their disagreements escalate into a dangerous confrontation.When Fathers and Sons was published in 1862, it enveloped its author in a storm of controversy. Those on the political right saw it as a dangerous glorification of nihilism, whereas those on the political left believed it to be a vicious caricature of the progressives of the younger generation. Today, the novel continues to engage us with its vital characters and subtle handling of universal themes.
