The article presents the point of view of a Russian writer and thinker, I. Turgenev, on disputes carried on between representatives of Westernizers and Slavophiles in Russia in the forties of the 19th century. It analyses and interprets some chosen literary works included in Notes of a hunter. In that work, Turgenev supports the idea of enfranchisement, modernization of economy, and liquidation of feudal relics in the way of life and customs. There is nothing typically slavophile in Turgenev’s considerations; he was concentrating on the issues of traditional, patriarchal type of social relationship. He was clearly and definitely supporting V. Bielinsky and K. Kavelin, the leading Westernizers at that time.

The paper scrutinizes the literary output of George Moore with reference to the expectations of the new generation of Irish writers emerging at the beginning of the twentieth century. Although George Moore is considered to belong to the Anglo-Irish ascendancy writers, he began his writing career from dissociating himself from the literary achievements of his own social class. His infatuation with the ideals of the Gaelic League not only brought him back to Dublin, but also encouraged him to write short stories analogous to famous Ivan Turgenev’s The Sportsman’s Sketches. The idea of using a Russian writer as a role model went along with the Gaelic League advocating the reading of non-English European literature in search for inspiration. However the poet’s involvement in the public cause did not last long. His critical view on Ireland together with his uncompromising approach towards literature resulted in a final disillusionment with the movement. The paper focuses on this particular period of Moore’s life in order to show how this seemingly unfruitful cooperation became essential for the development of Irish literature in the twentieth century. The Untilled Field, though not translated into Irish, still marks the beginning of a new genre into Irish literature-a short story. More importantly, the collection served as a source of inspiration for Joyce’s Dubliners. These and other aspects of Moore’s literary life are supposed to draw attention to the complexity of the writer’s literary output and his underplayed role in the construction of the literary Irish identity.

The subject of discussion in the present paper is the model of the dispute as a speech genre created by Ivan Turgenev. Special attention is paid to eristic techniques of disputation. Eristic techniques (those proposed by Schopenhauer) determine the intention of a dispute aimed not at establishing the truth, but at convincing the addressees of the validity of argumentation presented by certain disputants. An analysis of the course of the disputes in Turgenev’s novels allows us to notice the use of many eristic techniques, in particular, the shifts of emphasis from the subject of the dispute (ad rem) to the disputing persons (ad personam). It proves that the writer focuses on pointing to the forces that can lead Russia towards a better future, rather than on looking for a way of solving problems. A positive characterization of the moderate disputants, while not of the fierce ones, allows for a more precise conclusion: Turgenev was a supporter not of eternal disputes but of dialogue and compromise.

The plot of Turgenev’s novel Fathers and Sonsin the light of the writer’s art thanatology Turgenev’s novel Fathers and Sons is presented in the article as the most important stage in the development of the thanatological theme in the writer’s work, the significance of which is largely highlighted by the comparison of its key thanatological episode with the similar ones from Shakespeare and Cervantes analyzed by Turgenev in his article Hamlet and Don Quixote. Thinking about death became for him, according to Turgenev himself, a key impulse, which in many ways determined the structure of the novel plot and its semantic field. The situation of the death of the hero in the novel Fathers and Sons is considered here in the context of the key motives, Love and Good, that penetrate it, which at the artistic and philosophical levels of this text determines the idea of the metaphysical strength of a person.

Fabuła powieści Iwana Turgieniewa Ojcowie i dzieci w świetle artystycznej tanatologii pisarza Powieść Turgieniewa Ojcowie i dzieci w artykule prezentowana jest jako najważniejszy etap w rozwoju motywu tanatologicznego w twórczości tego pisarza. Znaczenie utworu ukazywane jest przede wszystkim poprzez porównanie kluczowej w nim kwestii tanatologicznej z podobnymi wątkami u Shakespeare’a i Cervantesa, analizowanymi przez Turgieniewa w jego artykule Hamlet i Don Kichot. Rozmyślanie o śmierci stało się dla pisarza, jak sam podkreślał, kluczowym impulsem, który pod wieloma względami determinował strukturę fabuły dzieła i jego pole znaczeniowe. Sytuacja śmierci bohatera w powieści Ojcowie i dzieci rozpatrywana jest w kontekście przeplatających się w niej kluczowych motywów — miłości i dobra, co w artystyczno-filozoficznym układzie współrzędnych tego tekstu definiuje ideę metafizycznej wytrwałości człowieka.

W artykule przybliżono specyfikę recepcji heglizmu w Rosji na przełomie lat trzydziestych i czterdziestych XIX wieku, przedstawiono dylematy ideowe i społeczno-moralne Wissariona Bielińskiego, Aleksandra Hercena i Iwana Turgieniewa, będących w tym okresie reprezentatywnymi rosyjskimi heglistami. Recepcja ta jest świadectwem fascynacji Rosjan nie tylko konstrukcjami teoretycznymi Hegla, ich wszechstronnym zakresem oraz przydatnością terminologiczną. Niemniej ważna jest też swoista współmierność tej filozofii z realną rosyjską rzeczywistością. Kiedy okazało się, że konstatacja ta nie może być utrzymana, rosyjscy myśliciele przestali hołubić Hegla. Zaczęli krytykować heglizm jako filozofię „oderwania od rzeczywistości”.

In the article the specificity of the reception of the concepts of Hegel in Russia at the turn of the 30s and 40s of the 19th century is introduced. Special attention is paid to ideological and socio-moral dilemmas of Vissarion Belinsky, Alexander Herzen and Ivan Turgenev, for them being representative Russian Hegelians in this period. That reception proves the Russians’ fascination for not only theoretical structures of Hegel, but also their versatile scope and the terminological usefulness. Equally important is also some specific adequateness of this philosophy to Russian reality. When it turned out that this observation could not be held, Russian thinkers „turned themselves away” from Hegel. They started to criticize the philosophy of Hegel on the ground of its „detachment from reality”.
