metadata.value: F. V. Bulgarin’s novel “Pyotr Ivanovich Vyzhigin” (1831), which takes place
  against the background of the Patriotic War of 1812, can be considered a
  forerunner of “War and Peace” by L. N. Tolstoy. It drew first a rather negative
  criticism. The French edition, published almost immediately after the Russian
  one, in 1832, included lengthy comments by journalist and literary critic
  E.-J. Héreau, which have not yet attracted the attention of researchers. It is
  the purpose of this paper to examine them. Far from the quarrels of the Russian
  literary scene, Héreau was relatively free from prejudices and passions.
  On the other hand, his being French could in some cases distort his perception
  of recent events affecting both France and Russia. Héreau’s comments,
  many of which contain references to specific historical works and sources, are
  examined using biographical, historical-cultural, historical-genetic and comparative
  methods. As the French critic addressed mainly the French public,
  ignorant of the realities of Russian life, he gave them all sorts of information:
  basic notions about Russia; judgments about the moral character of Russians;
  criticism of Bulgarin’s interpretation of some episodes of Napoleon’s Russian
  campaign. Héreau appears to share in many respects the skepticism of Russian
  critics. Like them, he seems to regret the fact that the two storylines of the
  novel, historical and fictional, only occasionally intersect. However, Héreau
  was more concerned with questions of plausibility. In general, he paid more
  attention to the historical storyline, criticizing Bulgarin for using Ph. de Ségur
  as his main source of information.
