Le Double

Unter den späten Erzählungen und kürzeren Romanen, die in diesem Buch zusammengestellt sind, ist natürlich "Der Spieler" von besonderem Interesse, hat doch Dostojewski lange mit seiner Spielsucht kämpfen müssen und mehrfach hohe und höchste Beträge verloren, vor allem in den Spielbanken von Wiesbaden und Baden-Baden. Die hier versammelten Romane und Novellen werden als die "kleinen Meisterwerke" des Dichters bezeichnet, die in der Reifezeit seines Schaffens entstanden sind.

Les Frères Karamazov, Vol. 1

Just two years after completing Crime and Punishment, which explored the mind of a murderer, Dostoevsky produced another masterpiece, The Idiot. This time the author portrays a truly beautiful soul—a character he found difficult to bring to life because, as he wrote, "beauty is the ideal, and neither my country, nor civilized Europe, know what that ideal of beauty is.” The result was one of Dostoevsky’s greatest characters—Prince Myshkin, a saintly, Christ-like, yet deeply human figure.The story begins when Myshkin arrives on Russian soil after a stay in a Swiss sanatorium. Scorned by St. Petersburg society as an idiot for his generosity and innocence, the prince finds himself at the center of a struggle between a rich, kept woman and a beautiful, virtuous girl, who both hope to win his affection. Unfortunately, Myshkin’s very goodness seems to bring disaster to everyone he meets. The shocking denouement tragically reveals how, in a world obsessed with money, power, and sexual conquest, a sanatorium is the only place for a saint.

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 Rêve de l'oncle est le premier roman écrit par Dostoïevski à sa sortie du bagne, entre 1856 et 1859 (il est encore en Sibérie). Cette comédie, conçue à l'origine pour le théâtre, n'est pas foncièrement gaie ; et pourtant, on ne peut s'empêcher de rire en lisant ces annales écrites par un imbécile sur la façon dont une grande dame d'une ville de province veut marier sa fille avec un vieillard sénile. Ici, le comique est tellement outré qu'il devient source de malaise : à travers le personnage de l'oncle (du narrateur), à ce point gâteux qu'il est incapable de savoir si son mariage est un rêve ou une réalité, Dostoïevski témoigne d'une fascination sordide pour le ridicule et fouille les limites les plus secrètes de nos consciences.

Le Rêve de l'oncle

Dostoevsky’s most revolutionary novel, Notes from Underground marks the dividing line between nineteenth- and twentieth-century fiction, and between the visions of self each century embodied. One of the most remarkable characters in literature, the unnamed narrator is a former official who has defiantly withdrawn into an underground existence. In full retreat from society, he scrawls a passionate, obsessive, self-contradictory narrative that serves as a devastating attack on social utopianism and an assertion of man’s essentially irrational nature.Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, whose Dostoevsky translations have become the standard, give us a brilliantly faithful edition of this classic novel, conveying all the tragedy and tormented comedy of the original.

Les Carnets Du Sous Sol

A young, lonely man strolls the streets of St. Petersburg contemplating his solitude when he happens upon a young woman in tears. While escorting her home, the two strike up a conversation and soon become friends, meeting up at night to share their stories. When the young woman, Nastenka, explains that she was crying because she had been waiting for her fiancé who promised he would be back to marry her, the young man, despite his growing feelings toward her, promises to help her locate her beloved."White Nights" is considered to be one of Fyodor Dostoevsky's best short stories and has been adapted numerous times for film in various languages.
