Close Encounters: Essays on Russian Literature analyzes the work of Pushkin, Gogol, Turgenev, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, and Gorky, and combines discussions of ethical, esthetic and philosophical interest raised in their texts. ¬ is book focuses on four thematic configurations—first “Chance and Fate”: issues of freedom and responsibility; second, “Two Kinds of Beauty”: the unity of moral, esthetic, and spiritual categories, and the quest for the ideal; third “Critical Perspectives”: examples of commentary that approaches art with a unified ethical and spiritual perspective; and fourth, “Poems of Parting”: three poems by Tyutchev, Severyanin, and Pushkin involving parting, loss and recovery.
