La femme d'un autre et le mari sous le lit

This carefully crafted ebook: "Demons (The Possessed / The Devils) - The Unabridged Garnett Translation" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.
An extremely political book, Demons is a testimonial of life in Imperial Russia in the late 19th century.
As the revolutionary democrats begin to rise in Russia, different ideologies begin to collide. Dostoyevsky casts a critical eye on both the liberal idealists, portraying their ideas and ideological foundation as demonic, and the conservative establishment's ineptitude in dealing with those ideas and their social consequences.
This form of intellectual conservativism tied to the Slavophile movement of Dostoyevsky's day, called Pochvennichestvo, is seen to have continued on into its modern manifestation in individuals like Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Dostoyevsky's novels focus on the idea that utopias and positivist ideas, in being utilitarian, were unrealistic and unobtainable.
Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky ( 1821 - 1881) was a Russian novelist, short story writer, essayist and philosopher. Dostoyevsky's literary works explore human psychology in the context of the troubled political, social, and spiritual atmosphere of 19th-century Russia. Many literary critics rate him as one of the greatest and most prominent psychologists in world literature.

Demons (The Possessed / The Devils) - The Unabridged Garnett Translation

Le héros de ce récit de jeunesse (1847) tombe amoureux d’une jeune femme mariée à un vieillard – la logeuse de l’appartement dans lequel il vient de trouver une chambre. Si son intrusion constitue une crise dans la vie du couple étrange, nul ne saura jamais pourtant quel lien les unit, quelle folie ou quelle affection mortifère. Car telles sont la force et la modernité de ce récit que de rester ouvert, de ne donner aucune clé à l’inévitable éviction du protagoniste.

Pour raconter les evenements si etranges survenus dernierement dans notre ville, je suis oblige de remonter un peu plus haut et de donner au prealable quelques renseignements biographiques sur une personnalite distinguee: le tres-honorable Stepan Trophimovitch Verkhovensky. Ces details serviront d'introduction a la chronique que je me propose d'ecrire. Je le dirai franchement: Stepan Trophimovitch a toujours tenu parmi nous, si l'on peut ainsi parler, l'emploi de citoyen; il aimait ce role a la passion, je crois meme qu'il serait mort plutot que d'y renoncer. Ce n'est pas que je l'assimile a un comedien de profession: Dieu m'en preserve, d'autant plus que, personnellement, je l'estime. Tout, dans son cas, pouvait etre l'effet de l'habitude, ou mieux, d'une noble tendance qui, des ses premieres annees, avait constamment pousse a rever une belle situation civique. Par exemple, sa position de persecute et d'exile lui plaisait au plus haut point. Le prestige classique de ces deux petits mots l'avait seduit une fois pour toutes; en se les appliquant, il se grandissait a ses propres yeux, si bien qu'il finit a la longue par se hisser sur une sorte de piedestal fort agreable a la vanite."

Les Possédés

D'abord trois hommes sont "embarqués". Ils ne se connaissent pas. Face à face dans le train de Petersbourg, Rogojine le noiraud et le blond Mychkine, prince à la race abolie, forment un contraste parfait; bientôt ils s'appelleront "frères" et le seront. Dans la mort. Ou plutôt: auprès de la morte, ayant accompli leur destin, cousu au nom, puis au visage bouleversant de Nastassia Filippovna. Le coryphée est là aussi, sous l'aspect du fonctionnaire Lebedev (...).L'Idiot est une tragédie biblique, un drame coupé d'apologues, commenté par toutes les voix de l'humain concert...

L'idiot

Humiliés Et Offensés (Classic Reprint)

One of the most influential novels of the nineteenth century, Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment tells the tragic story of Raskolnikov-a talented former student whose warped philosophical outlook drives him to commit murder. Surprised by his sense of guilt and terrified of the consequences of his actions, Raskolnikov wanders through the slums of pre-revolutionary St. Petersburg trying to escape the ever-suspicious Porfiry, the official investigating the crime. Through the moral guidance of Sonia, a destitute but pious woman driven to prostitution to support her family, Raskolnikov works through his conflicted sense of what is both moral and just, enabling him to face the depravity of his actions. Imbued with suspense, intrigue, and a dark pathos, Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel remains a deeply compelling consideration of the human psyche.
