This book was first conceived and written as a post-graduate thesis for the University of London, where it was submitted and examined in 1987/1988. Considering the present revival of interest in Russian émigré literature, both in the West and in the Soviet Union, I hope that this work will find a wider and more varied audience than its original one.
Although further research may naturally amend or challenge some of my findings or conclusions, I do not doubt that the guiding principles of my work will be confirmed, namely: respect for the essential importance of primary sources and the émigré writers' own perceptions of themselves.
