Summary "Cours familier de Littérature - Volume 23" by Alphonse de Lamartine is a literary review published during the late 19th century. This installment features an in-depth discussion of the works of Russian author Ivan Turgenev, particularly focusing on "Les Récits d'un Chasseur." The text explores the themes of servitude, the struggles of Russian peasants under serfdom, and the nuanced portrayal of their lives, while praising Turgenev's literary craftsmanship. The opening of this work sets the stage for an exploration of Turgenev's contribution to literature, emphasizing his depiction of the Russian peasantry amidst the oppressive system of serfdom. Lamartine reflects on Turgenev's ability to authentically capture the struggles and characteristics of the Russian people, as well as their relationship with nature. This segment serves not only as a critique of Turgenev's work but also as a commentary on the social conditions of Russia during that time, highlighting the author's skillful observations and the broader implications for Russian society.
