His impressions on what he saw, Winter Notes on Summer Impressions, were first published in the February 1863 issue of Vremya (Time), the periodical he edited.

Автор: Жанр: PublikumArt Год: 2012 Страниц: 120 Дата загрузки: 11 июня 2014

Yet with many rivals for the hands of both parties, events are not guaranteed to run smoothly.

A rare foray into comedy by the giant of Russian literature, Uncle's Dream nonetheless still possesses all the hallmarks of Dostoevsky's psychological and philosophical writing.

   Dostoyevsky's revolutionary work, was a major influence on James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, and Friedrich Nietzsche. Notes from the Underground is celebrated as the first existentialist novel; it is the starting point for the sense of meaninglessness that runs through much of twentieth-century writing, including that of Kafka and Beckett. Dostoevsky's most revolutionary work is comprised of the rambling memories of a bitter unnamed narrator who has withdrawn entirely from society into an underground existence.
