Summary "Vaders en Zonen" by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around the generational conflict and differing ideologies between the aging landowner Nikolaas Petrowitsj Kirsanof and his son Arkadiej, as well as Arkadiej's friend Bazarof, who represents a new, nihilistic worldview. This narrative sets the stage for an exploration of themes like social change, familial relationships, and the clash of traditional and modern values in Russian society. At the start of the novel, we meet Nikolaas Petrowitsj, a landowner eagerly awaiting the return of his son Arkadiej from university, who has completed his studies. As Arkadiej arrives with his friend Bazarof, the family dynamics and the societal context begin to unfold. Nikolaas is depicted as loving yet somewhat anxious and traditional, while Arkadiej embodies youthful optimism tinged with modern ideas, specifically those put forth by Bazarof, a nihilist. The opening introduces us to these complex relationships and the societal tensions of the period, setting the foundation for the ensuing conflict over ideologies and their implications for the family and greater society.
