TURGENEV, Ivan Sergeevich (1818-1883). Polnoe sobranie sochinenii [The Complete Collected Works]. St Petersburg: by Glazunov, Stasiuslevich, and the Imperial Academy of Sciences, for Glazunov, 1883.

Turgenev's last literary undertaking – the first complete collected edition of his works. Collected editions had begun to appear as early as 1856, but none were entirely to Turgenev's satisfaction, who was especially peeved by poor proof-reading. Turgenev met Glazunov in the summer of 1882 to discuss this edition, and started proofing and editing in earnest in November. Turgenev managed to complete this enormous task before his death, nine months later.

Ten volumes, octavo (208 x 140mm). Engraved portrait frontispiece and a leaf of facsimile manuscript both in vol. 1 (occasional light spotting; faint marginal dampstain in the final leaves of vol. 1). Near contemporary Russian red quarter morocco with red cloth sides, spines lettered directly in gilt (extremities rubbed; dampstain to the rear cover of vols 9 and 10; some staining to the front board of vol. 5). Provenance: Russian bookseller's small stamp.
