This work focuses primarily on the significant movements and notable figures in Russian literature, particularly during the 19th century. The text emphasizes the unique characteristics of Russian literary tradition, noting its passionate engagement with societal and political themes, a reflection of Russia's complex history. The opening of the book presents Kropotkin's motivations for addressing the topic of Russian literature, particularly in a context where it has not been thoroughly translated or understood by a Western audience. He articulates the vibrant connection between Russian literature and the nation's socio-political landscape, highlighting the impact that literary figures such as Turguéneff, Púshkin, and Tolstóy have had on social discourse in Russia. Kropotkin notes the challenges of discussing literature that remains largely untranslated yet holds a rich reservoir of original thought and artistic expression, as he situates literature as a crucial vehicle for understanding the Russian national identity and aspirations.
