Goncharov's novels have enjoyed enduring popularity in Russia, with Oblomov, the protagonist of his most renowned work, epitomizing the archetype of a lazy man. Milton Ehre presents fresh interpretations of Goncharov's complex personality, illustrating how Oblomov serves as a self-portrait of the author. The introductory chapter offers a nuanced perspective, neither idealizing Goncharov nor overlooking his flaws, showcasing a deep understanding of this significant nineteenth-century Russian writer. Ehre transcends conventional critiques, providing a contemporary analysis of Goncharov's entire body of work. He posits that the meanings in art are closely tied to their forms, examining Goncharov's writings with meticulous attention to style, structure, and genre distinctions to illuminate the themes and experiences reflected in his narratives. Ehre's extensive knowledge of Russian literature concerning Goncharov, coupled with his literary insight, fosters a renewed appreciation for the author's contributions. Originally published in 1974, this work is now available through the Princeton Legacy Library, which employs modern print-on-demand technology to reissue previously out-of-print titles from Princeton University Press's esteemed catalog, ensuring access to the rich scholarly heritage established since 1905.
