The Brothers Karamazov: The Constance Garnett Translation Revised by Ralph E. Matlaw : Backgrounds and Sources, Essays in Criticism (Norton Critical Editions) (English and Russian Edition)

Constance Garnettâ€™s translation, the basic version in English of this Russian masterpiece, has been revised by the editor for accuracy and readability.
Dostoevskyâ€™s sources for the characters and situations of the novel are set forth in an extract from Lev Reynusâ€™s Dostoevsky and Staraya Russa and in selections from Dostoevskyâ€™s letters and diary, all translated by Professor Matlaw. Konstantin Mochulskyâ€™s essay provides a general discussion of the work. Important questions as to the craft of the novel, its characterization, Dostoevskyâ€™s symbolism, the Grand Inquisitor, and the theme of religious salvation are surveyed in critical pieces by Dmitry Tschizewskij, Robert L. Belknap, Edward Wasiolek, Harry Slochower, D. H. Lawrence, Albert Camus, Nathan Rosen, Leonid Grossman, Ya. E. Golosovker, R. P. Blackmur, and Ralph E. Matlaw. Several of these selections are also recently translated from the Russian. A Selected Bibliography is included.
