Oblomov, the main character of Ivan Goncharov's novel, is widely regarded as one of the finest literary examples of the backward-looking landed gentry of mid-nineteenth century Russia. His name has even entered the Russian language in the term "oblomovshchina", meaning backwardness, inertia. The unheroic hero Oblomov is also a very fine literary creation of a fully-fledged human being. He is a melancholy idealist, a dreamer whose temperament is such that he never begins to put his dreams into action. His tragedy is that he weighs the possible obstacles to his endeavors for such a long time that, finally, he never even starts to act. Ivan Goncharov is at his best when he describes the mental processes of Oblomov that lead to his bumbling life. There is no better description of how the mind of a pessimistic person manipulates the perception of reality than in this book. "The Saint of Sloth" is the title of a review written by the critic V.S. Pritchett for the New York Review of Books. It captures nicely the two main aspects of Oblomov's character. On the one hand, Oblomov is lazy, irresponsible, pessimistic, paralyzed, complacent, slothful; but on the other hand he is idealistic, true to himself, honest, child-like, innocent, saintly. He is ultimately a lovable human being. He does not lack wisdom, he lacks resolve. As can be expected, Goncharov's book is not an action-packed thriller. On the first 50 or so pages, Oblomov barely manages to get out of his bed. A patient reader who keeps reading, however, is rewarded with a wonderfully realistic love story (including all the ups and downs), and many wise comments by the bachelor Goncharov on life, love, passion, duty and marriage.　　长篇小说《奥勃洛莫夫》是俄国杰出的现实主义作家冈察洛夫的代表作，在俄国文学史上占有重要地位。 　　小说塑造了一个正直、善良、温柔，却慵懒懈怠、耽于幻想、无所作为、因循守旧的人物形象。地主知识分子奥勃洛莫夫养尊处优，视劳动与公职为不堪忍受的重负。尽管他设想了庞大的行动计划，却无力完成任何事情，最后只能躺在沙发上混日子，成为一个彻头彻尾的懒汉和废物。小说细腻地描写了他精神上的死亡过程，表达了农奴制改革前夕社会强烈的反农奴制情绪和要求变革的愿望。奥勃洛莫夫是农奴制崩溃的产物，他的性格是死气沉沉的庄园生活对其生活精神影响的必然结果。他的形象标志着俄国19世纪“多余人”蜕化的极限，是一个没落地主的典型，这也是小说的最成功之处。

Shelley started writing when she was 18 and the novel was published when she was 21. The first edition was published anonymously in Rochelle in 1818. Shelley's name appears on the second edition, published in 1831. The title of the novel refers to a scientist, Victor Frankenstein, who learns how to create life and creates a being in the likeness of man, but larger than average and more powerful. In popular culture, people have tended incorrectly to refer to the monster as "Frankenstein". Frankenstein is infused with some elements of the Gothic novel and the Romantic movement. It was also a warning against the expansion of modern man in the Industrial Revolution, alluded to in the novel's subtitle, The Modern Prometheus. The story has had an influence across literature and popular culture and spawned a complete genre of horror stories and films. It is often considered the first fully realised science fiction novel due to its pointed, if gruesome, focus on playing God by creating life from dead flesh.
