FOREWORD

THIS novel, known as one of the masterpieces of Russian Literature, under the title "A Hero
of our Time," and already translated into at least nine European languages, is now for the first time placed before the general English Reader.

The work is of exceptional interest to the student of English Literature, written as it was under the profound influence of Byron and being itself a study of the Byronic type of character.

The Translators have taken especial care to preserve both the atmosphere of the story and the
poetic beauty with which the Poet-novelist imbued his pages.
