RUDIN by Ivan Turgenev tells the story of a character typical to Turgenev a "superfluous" man, weak of will, brimming with indecisive frustration and yet tormented by ideals. Rudin is made impotent by the dissonance of honoring the older generations while at the same time embracing the new bold epoch of pre-revolutionary Russia. The theme of melancholic powerless men coupled with vital idealistic women is prevalent in Turgenev's work, and it would be hard to find a clearer study of the type than RUDIN.
