Clorinda fui: nè sol qui spirto umano
Albergo in questa pianta rozza e dura;
Ma ciascun altro ancor, Franco o Pagano,
Che lassi i membri a piè dell'alte mura,
Astretto
è qui da novo incanto e strano,
Non so s' io dica in corpo o in sepoltura.

IVAN TURGENEFF
(1818-1883)
BY HENRY JAMES
HERE is perhaps no novelist of alien race who more naturally
than Ivan Turgeneff inherits a niche in a Library for Eng-
lish readers; and this not because of any advance or con-
cession that in his peculiar artistic
independence
he ever made, or
could dream of making, such readers, but because it was one of the
effects of his peculiar genius to give him, even in his lifetime, a
special place in the regard of foreign publics.

To see the heavy-lowing cattle wait
Stretching their huge and dripping mouths across the

and welcomed
with enthusiasm by the learned all over Europe, who, by their
common use of Latin, were able more easily than now to under-
stand and to communicate with each other.
