One of the greatest writers of all time, Fyodor Dostoevsky
(1821-1881) is best known for such masterpieces as Crime and
Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov. His works are widely read
and studied today, and he has received much biographical and
critical attention. Like many other writers of enduring literature,
he engages timeless moral and theological issues. His writings and
ideas are complex and reflect the swirling political and
intellectual controversies of his time. This encyclopedia is a
convenient and comprehensive guide to his life and writings.
Through more than 200 alphabetically arranged entries, this
reference details his life and career. Each of his fictional works
is discussed, as are his major pieces of journalism. There are also
entries for his family members, close friends and associates,
places where he lived, literary movements with which he is
associated, and journals or newspapers in which he published. Also
included are entries for major writers and thinkers who influenced
his works, and for ideas and themes that figure prominently in his
writings. The entries cite works for further reading, and the
encyclopedia closes with a selected, general bibliography of major
works.
