Father and Son - Chichitoko (English spelling) Ottsï i deti

Japanese: 父と子 - ちちとこ(英語表記)Отцы и дети/Ottsï i deti
Father and Son - Chichitoko (English spelling) Ottsï i deti

A full-length novel by Russian author Turgenev, published in 1862. It depicts the generational conflict between father and son in the 1960s. Bazarov, a young medical student, is a "nihilist" who denies all established authority. He does not accept art, philosophy, or religion, because their truth cannot be scientifically proven. Pavel Kirsanov, a liberal intellectual from the 1940s, hates Bazarov, a modern young man who is trying to completely overturn the worldview of his generation, and is in sharp conflict with him. Bazarov is a typical example of an active intellectual who emerged from among the common people after the emancipation of the serfs. The author saw a revolutionary in this nihilist.

Japanese:

ロシアの作家ツルゲーネフの長編小説。1862年刊。60年代における父と子との世代の対立を描く。若き医学生バザーロフは既成の権威をすべて否定する「ニヒリスト」である。彼は芸術も哲学も宗教も認めない。科学的にその真理性が実証できないからである。40年代の知識人でリベラリストのパーベル・キルサーノフは、自分たちの世代の世界観を根底から覆そうとする現代青年バザーロフを憎み、彼と鋭く対立する。バザーロフは農奴解放後に平民のなかから出てくる行動的知識人の典型である。作者はこのニヒリストのうちに革命家をみた。
