This checklist was originally intended as a tribute to the memory ofIvan Sergeyevich Turgenev (1818–1883) on the seventy-fifth anniversaryof his death. The first section takes account of all works by Turgenevpublished in English translation, including collected editions, selections, andindividually published works. The collected editions are arranged chronologicallywhile the selections and individually published works are arrangedalphabetically by English title. A second section lists stories, prose poems,and other works of Turgenev which were published in anthologies andperiodicals. These are arranged alphabetically by the titles under whichthey were published, with individual stories and prose poems from A Sportsman’sNotebook and Poems in Prose being brought together under those titles.The checklist concludes with a large section dealing with Turgenev criticismin English, arranged chronologically.
Encyclopedia entries, brief notes, theatrical notices, adaptations fromTurgenev, and other trivia have as a rule not been included. No special efforthas been made to locate book reviews published after 1904, when publicationof the Hapgood translation of the collected works was completed. Bookreviews published before that time have been included as separate entriesin the chronological listing of Turgenev criticism, thus giving an approximateidea of the progress of Turgenev studies in the nineteenth-century Anglo-Saxonworld.
Most entries have been personally examined. In addition to checkingentries for Turgenev in the National Union Catalog and in the printedcatalogs of the Library of Congress, the Slavonic Division of The New YorkPublic Library, and the British Museum, the compilers have also searchedthrough the collections of Princeton, Harvard, and Columbia universities.
Much difficulty was encountered in arriving at a satisfactory listing of thecollected editions of Turgenev’s works, especially of the Garnett and Hapgoodtranslations. These were published piecemeal as well as complete andthe more popular volumes were frequently reissued, printed from the sameplates. We have had to be content with listing the first publication of eachvolume in the collected editions, the dates in which complete sets werereprinted, and then listing whatever separate reprints we have found toexist. Presumably there are several more.
