  <abstract>"The Great Masters of Russian Literature in the Nineteenth Century" by Ernest Dupuy is a literary analysis written in the late 19th century. This book delves into the works of significant Russian authors of the time, primarily focusing on Nikolaï Gogol, Ivan Turgéniev, and Count Lyof Tolstoï, as well as providing historical context around the emergence of a distinct Russian literary identity. It explores the evolution of Russian literature, emphasizing originality and national themes while examining the authors' contributions to their craft.  The opening of the book sets the stage for a detailed exploration of the literary landscape in Russia, starting with Nikolaï Gogol. It introduces Gogol's background, detailing his upbringing and early influences, particularly the rich oral traditions of his homeland that shaped his storytelling. The passage highlights Gogol's initial struggles and eventual breakthrough with his work "Evenings at the Farm," illustrating how he drew from local folklore and personal experiences to create uniquely Russian narratives. Through vivid descriptions of rural life and a passionate connection to his characters, Gogol's early works reflect a blend of dreaminess and satire, laying the groundwork for his later masterpieces and establishing his significance within Russian literature.
