Ills Views ua Translated From an Inter:
terview In a Moscow Paper.
Our literary men of the present day
are "ticcndents," and by “dmmlcnts” I
mean that school of writers who hav-
ing no ideeeof their own and having
nothing whatsoever to express strive
nevertheless to make some impression
upon the public by introducing into their
works various liltlc scenes or more
words devoid of any serious tlmught
and meaning. ”Decadence" in litera-
ture. is much more powerful and dan-
gerous in its pernicious influence than
most of us are prone to believe. ()ur
critics gciwrally rdgagl tho tomb-nay
either with utter indifference or with
a smile. never suspecting that such a
tendency does in a great measuri- reflect
upon our literature in general.
And right hero I wish to draw the
distinction between the two types of
“dccndcnls"—-tln! reserved, or those
who are inclined to conceal the fact of
belongingdo the school, and thepro-t
uounu-d type. or ”also who go on with
their work regardless of pnblicopin-
ion. We have at the present day a su-
pcrabundanco of dramatic works. origi-
nal as well as trimslaiions, and, us]
hear. our public eagerly views those
productions, living perfectly happy
when its. nerves are shattered and strain-
ml to the utmost, a consummation which
our modern dramatists dcvontly wish
for.
0f the two types I regard the former
—namely. the fi‘St‘X‘VHl—llfi the most
dangerous. and its pernicious inlluonco
upon the general public can marcely be
overestimated.
Uur modern fiction is. I am sorry to
note, devoid of originaliiyof thought as
Well as of boldness of vxpn‘ssion. ()ne’s
own idea and that alone is a thing of
great value, being the only factor in in-
suring life and utility to the production
of an artist. Alfml do Muss-ct was the
first to express this idea when he said,
"Mon verso n‘est pas grand. man: jo bois
dune mon verru. "
Perhaps my advanced age accounts in
a large museum for the view which i
take of things. To an old man, you know.

literature of the past. but also the past
generation—in othvr words the “dive-
