Rezension zu „The Cambridge Companion to Tolstoy “
'Indispensable for all who teach of study Tolstoy.' Rusistika '... it must be said that these are, without exception, very good essays ... For Tolstoi specialists this book, like all good books, provides fertile ground for future research ... for the more general reader this collection of clearly written essays, based on recent research, and including some useful websites, will be welcome. if it helps to bolster the study of Tolstoi in UK Russian departments it will be doubly welcome.' Slavonic & East European Review '... superb ... Every essay in this collection exhibits a high quality of arguement, knowledge, insight and clarity of exposition. Specialists and general readers alike will want to read them all, and in so doing will find their understanding of Tolstoi, as man, artist and public figures, greatly enriched.' Journal of European Studies
