JOHN ARTHUR THOMAS LLOYD (1870–1956)

Two Russian Reformers: Ivan Turgenev, Leo Tolstoy (1910)

ℹ️ "Mr. Lloyd's remarks are full of insight, and his literary portrait of Tolstoy, the man, is firmly handled." (Daily News)

ℹ️ "We are deeply indebted to Mr. Lloyd for his pages on Turgenev, they show much insight and a power of psychological analysis by no means common." (Literary World)

ℹ️ "Thoughtful and instructive, and has much in it to repay the attention of readers interested in Russian literature." (Scotsman)

Feodor Dostoieffsky: A Great Russian Realist (1912)

ℹ️ "This book of Mr Lloyd's is the most valuable contribution to our knowledge of Russian literature that an Englishman has produced. The author's views of Dostoiefsky could not be more sympathetic if he were were a Russian. Apart from its illuminating insight into the heart of Russian religion and life, this book is thrice welcome as the first full-length study in English of the author of 'Crime and Punishment' . . . Mr. Lloyd knows clearly the paramount value of life, and the futility of a merely aesthetic appeal. So his appreciation leads the reader to estimate not only the value of Russia's contribution to literature, but the larger question of what the Russian mind and heart may mean to the future of the world's civilisation." (Pall Mall Gazette)

ℹ️ "Mr. Lloyd is a well-informed and discriminating biographer who has made the story of Dostoieffsky's life vivid and interesting all through, while his manner of sketching the outline of his author's chief novels, and of critically comparing them with the work of the two contemporary masters of Russian realism, deserves great praise." (Westminster Gazette)
