INTRODUCTION
Conceive the joy of a lover of nature who, leaving the art galleries, wanders out among the trees and wild flowers and birds that the pictures of the galleries have sentimentalised. It is some such joy that the man who truly loves the noblest in letters feels when tasting for the first time the simple delights of Russian literature.

French and English and German authors, too, occasionally, offer works of lofty, simple naturalness; but the
very keynote to the whole of Russian literature is simplicity, naturalness, veraciousness.
