Book excerpt: "Growing up in Bulgaria, Julia Kristeva was warned by her father not to read Dostoyevsky. "Of course, and as usual," she says, "I disobeyed paternal orders and plunged into Dosto. Dazzled, overwhelmed, engulfed." Kristeva would go on to become one of the most important figures in European intellectual life-and she would return over and over again to Dostoyevsky, still haunted and enraptured by the force of his writing. In this book, Kristeva embarks on a wide-ranging and stimulating inquiry into Dostoyevsky's work and the profound ways it has influenced her own intellectual life. Reading across his major novels and shorter works, Kristeva offers incandescent insights into the potent themes that draw her back to the Russian master: God, otherness, violence, eroticism, the father, language itself. Both personal and erudite, the book intermingles Kristeva's analysis with her recollections of Dostoevsky's significance in different intellectual moments-the rediscovery of Bakhtin in the Thaw-era Eastern Bloc, the debates over poststructuralism in 1960s France, and whether it could be said that "everything is permitted" today. "Could the inaudible Dostoevsky be our contemporary?" she asks. Brilliant and vivid, this is an essential book for admirers of both Kristeva and Dostoevsky. It also features an illuminating foreword by Rowan Williams reflecting on the significance of Kristeva's reading of Dostoevsky for his own understanding of religious writing"--

Download or read book Dostoyevsky in the Face of Death written by Julia Kristeva and published by European Perspectives: A Series in Social Thought and Cultural Criticism. This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In her new book Kristeva explores the surprising modernity of the tormented and visionary Russian author. "Wherever I went and whatever I did, I pushed life to the limit, a limit I've spent my whole life trying to surpass," he wrote to his friend, the poet Apollon Maykov, in 1867. And sustained by his faith in the Orthodox doctrine of the Word incarnate, he did just that, betting on the power of language and narrative with the polyphonic novel, and defying a world - with or without God - of nihilism, and its alter ego, fundamentalism. The intense nature of his characters, ranging from pitiful monstrosity to "insect-like" insignificance, prefigure the carceral mold of the totalitarian universe that would emerge with the Holocaust and the Gulag. Julia Kristeva presents a compelling portrait of Dostoyevsky from the unprecedented angle of language, examining the literary giant and his oeuvre within the context of the 21st century where, at long last, "anything is possible." This is a very insightful book, and provides us with an intensely personal engagement with Dostoyevsky's works. In addition to language, she focuses on Dostoyevsky's sexuality and on his relation to religion and theology. There is no other book that brings both themes together"--

Book excerpt: Rowan Williams explores the intricacies of speech, fiction, metaphor, and iconography in the works of one of literature's most complex and most misunderstood, authors. Williams' investigation focuses on the four major novels of Dostoevsky's maturity (Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Devils, and The Brothers Karamazov). He argues that understanding Dostoevsky's style and goals as a writer of fiction is inseparable from understanding his religious commitments. Any reader who enters the rich and insightful world of Williams' Dostoevsky will emerge a more thoughtful and appreciative reader for it.
Download or read book The Idiot written by Fyodor Dostoyevsky and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-08-31 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fyodor Dostoyevsky's The Idiot is an immaculate portrait of innocence tainted by the brutal reality of human greed. This Penguin Classics edition is translated from the Russian by David McDuff, with an introduction by William Mills Todd III. Returning to St Petersburg from a Swiss sanatorium, the gentle and naïve epileptic Prince Myshkin - the titular 'idiot' - pays a visit to his distant relative General Yepanchin and proceeds to charm the General, his wife, and his three daughters. But his life is thrown into turmoil when he chances on a photograph of the beautiful Nastasya Filippovna. Utterly infatuated with her, he soon finds himself caught up in a love triangle and drawn into a web of blackmail, betrayal, and finally, murder. Inspired by an image of Christ's suffering Dostoyevsky sought to portray in Prince Myshkin the purity of a 'truly beautiful soul' and explore the perils that innocence and goodness face in a corrupt world. David McDuff's new translation brilliantly captures the novel's idiosyncratic and dream-like language and the nervous, elliptic flow of the narrative. This edition also contains a new introduction by William Mills Todd III, which is a fascinating examination of the pressures on Dostoyevsky as he wrote the story of his Christ-like hero. Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky (1821-1881) was born in Moscow. From 1849-54 he lived in a convict prison, and in later years his passion for gambling led him deeply into debt. His other works available in Penguin Classics include Crime & Punishment, The Idiot and Demons. If you enjoyed The Idiot, you might like Anton Chekhov's Ward No. 6 and Other Stories, also available in Penguin Classics. 'McDuff's language is rich and alive' The New York Times Book Review '[The Idiot's] ... narrative is so compelling' Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury

Each of Dostoevsky´s works is famous for its psychological profundity, and, indeed, Dostoyevsky is commonly regarded as one of the greatest psychologists in the history of literature. He specialized in the analysis of pathological states of mind that lead to insanity, murder, and suicide and in the exploration of the emotions of humiliation, self-destruction, tyrannical domination, and murderous rage. These major works are also renowned as great “novels of ideas” that treat timeless and timely issues in philosophy and politics. Psychology and philosophy are closely linked in Dostoyevsky’s portrayals of intellectuals, who “feel ideas” in the depths of their souls.
