  • Suíomh

    The action takes place in Russia, in 1859.

  • Achoimre

    The play's central conflict is a clash between old, aristocratic, class-ridden Russia and the fanatic zeal of young nihilist revolutionaries. The young revolutionary Bazarov's views are clear: he wants to 'smash people' and make a 'complete clearance' in order to remake Russia. Life and fate frustrate Bazarov's politics and, when exposed to them, he has to respond as a human being and not as a cynical demagogue.
