N. S. LESKOV’S NOVELS “NO WAY OUT”, “AT DAGGERS DRAWN” IN ANTI-NIHILIST PROSE OF THE 1860S

This article explores the N. S. Leskov’s novels “No Way Out” and “At Daggers Drawn”, which are the most famous anti-nihilist works of the author. The writer saw nihilism as a threat to legitimize vices as the norms of human existence, considered it a false direction in the culture of public life in Russia. These novels occupy a steady position in a number of anti-nihilist works of the 60s in the XIX century, in which one of the central topics was the theme of the family (the similarity with the Russian classical novel).
