In lectures on foreign literature, first published in 1980, the largest Russian-American writer of the twentieth century, Vladimir Nabokov, appeared to his fans, who knew him mainly as a virtuoso artist of the word, in other, sometimes unexpected hypostations: a thoughtful reader, an insightful, meticulous and under this very biased researcher, temperamental and demanding teacher. The book is based on the lecture course "Masters of European Prose", prepared for students of Cornell University, where the writer taught in the 1940-1950s. On the pages of this volume, the nabokov-class gives his audience an excellent lesson in the “close reading "of the works of Jane Osten, Charles Dickens, Gustav Flobert, Robert Lewis Stevenson, Franz Kafka, Marseille Proust and James Joyce
