MoreTolstoy and Tourgeniev, and those on Chekov and Gogol have appeared before. That on Tolstoy and Tourgeniev inT he Quarterly Review; those on Chekov and Gogol inT heN ew Quarterly; my thanks are due to theE ditors and Proprietors concerned for their kindness in allowing me to reprint these chapters here. The chapter on Russian Characteristics appeared inS t. George sM agazine-; the rest of the book is new.

The Complete Works of Count Tolstoy. Translated and edited by Leo Wiener. Twenty-four vols. London :D ent, 1904-5. Le Roman Russe. By the Vicomte E. M. de Vogiid. Paris: Plon, 1897. Tolstoy as Man and A rtist: with anE ssay on Dostoievski. By Dimitri Merejkowski. London: Constable, 1902. This is an abridgment of a larger book by the author.
