"Turgenev's story Rudin made a very strong impression on all decent people... It invigorated and refreshed me... Proclaim his (Turgenev's) great talent boldly and resolutely; fear not to be accused of exaggeration, fear not to worship the noble writer to whom we all owe so much."
Nikolai Chernyshevsky. 1856
"...Turgenev's A Nest of the Gentry is an everlasting work and belongs to world literature. Why? Because here for the first time the prophetic dream of all our poets and all Russian people who are tormented by thought and seek to divine the future has come true, with remarkable comprehension and perfection, the dream of estranged Russian society merging with the soul and strength of the people."
Fyodor Dostoyevsky. "Diary of a Writer"
"Turgenev was highly cultivated man of strong convictions who never left the soil of universal human ideals. He introduced these ideals into Russian life with that deliberate constancy that is his prime and inestimable service to Russian society. In this sense he is the direct continuer of Pushkin and knows no other rival in Russian literature. So that, if Pushkin has every right to say of himself that he aroused 'finer feelings'', Turgenev can also say the same just as rightfully of himself. These were not just conventional 'finer feelings' in keeping with this or that passing trend, but those simple, easily accessible, universal ´finer feelings' that form the base of a profound belief in the triumph of light, goodness and moral beauty."
Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin
