TOLSTOY
Demy 8vo, cloth, 12s. 6d. net.
A Literary History of Russia.
By A. Brückner, Professor of Slavonic
Languages and Literature in the
University of Berlin.
Edited by Ellis H. Minns. Translated by
H. Havelock.
“One of the greatest Slavonic scholars has in this volume his say on the greatest Slavonic literature.”—Athenæum.
“The author’s learning is amazing, and his digestion of the life-work of critics, scholars, theologians, biographers, historians, politicians, controversialists, dramatists, poets, and novelists is extraordinary. In living and picturesque phrases Herr Brückner hits off the leading characteristics and value of hundreds of writers and of over a thousand works.”— Daily News.
