Tolstoy in Russian

[Donna Orwin]

Dear Joe,

Here's my read of the situation.  The Jubilee is essential, but the 20 volume and 22 volume editions (on the internet, see http://rvb.ru/tolstoy/toc.htm) are important additions to scholarship.  So are the Literaturnye pamiatniki editions where they exist.  The new academic edition so far has very few volumes, some of which have excellent scholarly commentary, and some of which do not.

All the best,

Donna Orwin

Dear SEELangers

I'm not up to speed on this - so would be grateful for advice as to what is currently thought to be the best edition of Tolstoy's works for academic research - is it still the Jubilee, or has the new post-Soviet 100-volume edition advanced?

Many thanks

Joe
