en Limba Engleză Hardback – mar 2022

Observăm în proza lui Fyodor Dostoevsky o densitate psihologică ce transformă simpla narațiune într-o experiență cvasi-viscerală. În Crime and Punishment, stilul nu este doar un vehicul al poveștii, ci o oglindă a febrei și a delirului care îl cuprind pe protagonist. Această ediție în limba engleză, semnată de Constance Garnett, păstrează acea cadență tensionată, specifică autorului, în care monologul interior devine un câmp de luptă filozofic.

Subliniem faptul că acesta este primul mare roman al maturității dostoievskiene, marcând o tranziție clară de la observația socială din The House of the Dead către explorarea abisurilor conștiinței umane. Premisa este deceptiv de simplă: Rodion Raskolnikov, un fost student sărac, comite o dublă crimă dintr-un amestec de necesitate și aroganță intelectuală. Însă esența cărții nu rezidă în actul violent, ci în „pedeapsa” care începe imediat după acesta — o prăbușire psihologică pe care autorul o documentează cu o precizie chirurgicală.

În tradiția analizei literare propuse de Richard Peace în studiile sale despre autor, acest roman reimaginează conceptul de vinovăție nu ca pe o categorie juridică, ci ca pe o stare de alienare față de umanitate. Ritmul este deliberat sufocant, reflectând claustrofobia mansardelor din Sankt Petersburg, iar tonul pendulează între luciditate tăioasă și compasiune mistică. Față de complexitatea corală din The Brothers Karamazov, aici atenția este focalizată aproape obsesiv pe dualitatea personajului central, oferind o perspectivă unică asupra modului în care ideile abstracte pot corupe spiritul uman.

Despre autor

Fyodor Dostoevsky (1821–1881) a fost unul dintre cei mai profunzi romancieri ruși, a cărui viață a fost marcată de extreme: de la condamnarea la moarte și anii de muncă silnică în Siberia, până la recunoașterea ca voce literară de geniu. Experiențele sale din exil i-au modelat viziunea asupra suferinței și mântuirii, teme centrale în capodopere precum The Idiot sau The Brothers Karamazov. Este considerat un precursor al existențialismului, opera sa influențând decisiv gânditori precum Nietzsche și Sartre, dar și bazele psihanalizei moderne.

Descriere scurtă

Crime and Punishment (Russian: ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ Prestuplenie i nakazanie) is a novel by Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky that was first published in the literary journal The Russian Messenger in twelve monthly installments. It was later published in a single volume. It is the second of Dostoevsky's full-length novels after he returned from his exile in Siberia, and the first great novel of his mature period. Crime and Punishment focuses on the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov, an impoverished St. Petersburg ex-student who formulates and executes a plan to kill a hated, unscrupulous pawnbroker for her money, thereby solving his financial problems and at the same time, he argues, ridding the world of an evil, worthless parasite. Several times throughout the novel, Raskolnikov justifies his actions by relating himself to Napoleon, believing that murder is permissible in pursuit of a higher purpose. About the author: Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky (11 November 1821 - 9 February 1881), sometimes transliterated as Dostoyevsky, was a Russian novelist, short story writer, essayist and journalist. Dostoevsky's literary works explore the human condition in the troubled political, social, and spiritual atmospheres of 19th-century Russia, and engage with a variety of philosophical and religious themes. His most acclaimed novels include Crime and Punishment (1866), The Idiot (1869), Demons (1872), and The Brothers Karamazov (1880). His 1864 novella, Notes from Underground, is considered to be one of the first works of existentialist literature. Numerous literary critics regard him as one of the greatest novelists in all of world literature, as many of his works are considered highly influential masterpieces. Born in Moscow in 1821, Dostoevsky was introduced to literature at an early age through fairy tales and legends, and through books by Russian and foreign authors. His mother died in 1837 when he was 15, and around the same time, he left school to enter the Nikolayev Military Engineering Institute. After graduating, he worked as an engineer and briefly enjoyed a lavish lifestyle, translating books to earn extra money. In the mid-1840s he wrote his first novel, Poor Folk, which gained him entry into Saint Petersburg's literary circles. However, he was arrested in 1849 for belonging to a literary group, the Petrashevsky Circle, that discussed banned books critical of Tsarist Russia. Dostoevsky was sentenced to death but the sentence was commuted at the last moment. He spent four years in a Siberian prison camp, followed by six years of compulsory military service in exile. In the following years, Dostoevsky worked as a journalist, publishing and editing several magazines of his own and later A Writer's Diary, a collection of his writings. He began to travel around western Europe and developed a gambling addiction, which led to financial hardship. For a time, he had to beg for money, but he eventually became one of the most widely read and highly regarded Russian writers. Dostoevsky's body of work consists of thirteen novels, three novellas, seventeen short stories, and numerous other works. His writings were widely read both within and beyond his native Russia and influenced an equally great number of later writers including Russians such as Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and Anton Chekhov, poet Yegor Letov, philosophers Friedrich Nietzsche and Jean-Paul Sartre, and the emergence of Existentialism and Freudianism. His books have been translated into more than 170 languages, and served as the inspiration for many films. (wikipedia.org)

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

Translated by Constance Garnett with an Introduction and Notes by Dr Keith Carabine, University of Kent at Canterbury.

Crime and Punishment is one of the greatest and most readable novels ever written. From the beginning we are locked into the frenzied consciousness of Raskolnikov who, against his better instincts, is inexorably drawn to commit a brutal double murder.

From that moment on, we share his conflicting feelings of self-loathing and pride, of contempt for and need of others, and of terrible despair and hope of redemption: and, in a remarkable transformation of the detective novel, we follow his agonised efforts to probe and confront both his own motives for, and the consequences of, his crime.

The result is a tragic novel built out of a series of supremely dramatic scenes that illuminate the eternal conflicts at the heart of human existence: most especially our desire for self-expression and self-fulfilment, as against the constraints of morality and human laws; and our agonised awareness of the world's harsh injustices and of our own mortality, as against the mysteries of divine justice and immortality.

Recenzii

Stylistic precision and neatness are qualities of Slater's translation... This is an ideal edition to prescribe for senior high school and undergraduate teaching... Young's Introduction lays a good foundation for readers who are new to Dostoevsky, and neatly covers all the major aspects of the novel in its historical context, within the editorial constraints of a translation.
Superb... the Oxford University Press edition is beautifully produced and competitively priced.

Notă biografică

Doestoevsky was sent to study engineering at St Petersburg Academy at the age of 17, but pursued independent interests in literature and politics. His brief devotion to political radicalism in Tsarist Russia nearly cost him his life (a death sentence in 1849 was commuted to four years' hard labour at the last minute); his literary dedication - in such extraordinary novels as The Idiot, Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov - has guaranteed his immortality. // David Zane Mairowitz is an author, playwright, radio director and translator.
