The Gambler is a short novel by Fyodor Dostoyevsky about a young tutor in the employment of a formerly wealthy Russian general. The novella reflects Dostoyevsky''s own addiction to roulette, which was in more ways than one the inspiration for the book: Dostoyevsky completed the novella under a strict deadline to pay off gambling debts. The first-person narrative is told from the point of view of Alexei Ivanovich, a tutor working for a Russian family living in a suite at a German hotel. The patriarch of the family, The General, is indebted to the Frenchman de Criet and has mortgaged his property in Russia to pay only a small amount of his debt. Upon learning of the illness of his wealthy aunt, "Grandmother", he sends streams of telegrams to Moscow and awaits the news of her demise. His expected inheritance will pay his debts and gain Mademoiselle Blanche de Cominges''s hand in marriage. Alexei is hopelessly in love with Polina, the General''s stepdaughter, and swears an oath of servitude to her. He told her while on a walk on the Schlangenberg (a mountain in the German town) that all she had to do was give the word and he would gladly walk off the edge and plummet to his death. This leads to her asking him to go to the town''s casino and place a bet for her. He refuses at first but, when goaded and reminded of his oath of undying love and servility, he succumbs and ends up winning at the roulette table. He returns to her the winnings but she will not tell him the reason she needs money. She only laughs in his face (as she does when he professes his love) and treats him with cold indifference, if not downright malice. He only learns the details of the General''s and Polina''s financial state later in the story through his long-time acquaintance, Mr. Astley. Astley is a shy Englishman who seems to share Alexei''s fondness of Polina. He comes from English nobility and has a good deal of money. One day while Polina and Alexei are on a walk they see Baron and Baroness Wurmerhelm. Polina dares him to insult the aristocratic couple and he does so with little hesitation. This sets off a chain of events that details Mademoiselle Blanche''s interest in the General and gets Alexei fired as tutor of the General''s children. Shortly after this, Grandmother shows up and surprises the whole party of debtors and indebted. She tells them all that she knows all about the General''s debt and why the Frenchman and woman are waiting around the suite day after day. She leaves the party of death-profiteers by saying that none of them are getting any of her money. She then asks Alexei to be her guide around the town famous for its healing waters and infamous for its casino where the tables are stacked with piles of gold; she wants to gamble. After being ushered to the roulette table, she plays and wins 13,000 Friedrich''s d''ors (7000-8000 roubles), a significant amount of money. After a short return to the hotel, she comes back to roulette tables and she starts to get the bug; before she leaves the town, she''s lost over a hundred thousand roubles in three days.

악령(Бесы, Demons)(1873) : 도스토옙스키의 악령(Бесы, Demons)(1872)는 그가 러시아 메신저(The Russian Messenger)(1871~1872)를 통해 연재한 작품으로 그의 5대 장편(죄와 벌, 백치, 악령, 미성년, 카라마조프 가의 형제들) 중 하나로 꼽힙니다. 작품의 원제 Бесы는 영어로 신들린(The Possessed), 악마들(The Devils, Demons) 등으로 번역되며, 우리말로는 악령(惡靈)으로 옮겨졌습니다. 도스토옙스키의 다른 소설과 마찬가지로 작가 본인의 실제 경험이 녹아 들어 있으며, 특히 페트라셰프스키 서클(Petrashevsky Circle)와 이를 통해 교류한 인물들의 흔적이 짙게 배어 있습니다. 주인공 니콜라이 세볼로도비치 스타브로긴(Nikolai Vsevolodovich Stavrogin)는 작가가 직접 활동한 페트라셰프스키 서클(Petrashevsky Circle)에서 만났던 러시아 귀족 겸 정치 운동가 니콜라이 알렉산드로비치 스페쉬네프(Nikolay Alexandrovich Speshnev)(1821~1882)를 모델로 한 것이라고 추정됩니다. 그 또한 도스토옙스키와 함께 체포되었고, 사형에 처해진 후 사형 직전에 강제 노동형으로 감형되었습니다. 러시아에서 연극(1913), 드라마(2014)로 제작되었으며, 특히 영국과 프랑스에서도 연극, 영화, 드라마, 라디오 드라마 등으로 제작된 바 있습니다. 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics)과 함께 어제도, 오늘도, 내일도 멋진 문학여행을! B 소설은 다음과 같은 인용문으로 시작합니다. 제목 악령(Бесы, Demons)(1873)이 무슨 뜻인지, 어떤 존재인지 작가의 의도를 짐작할 수 있는 중요한 대목으로 표트르 스테파노비치 베르호벤스키(Pyotr Stepanovich Verkhovensky)의 행보를 압축적으로 드러냅니다. “Then went the devils out of the man and entered into the swine; and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake and were choked. “그러고 나서, 그 사람에게서 악마들이 빠져나와, 그 안으로 들어갔습니다. 돼지; 그리고 그 무리는 가파른 곳을 거칠게 달려 내려갔습니다. 호수가 막혔어요. “Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.” Luke, ch. viii. 32-37. “그들이 일을 보러 나가서, 예수를 찾아왔습니다. 그리고 그 남자를 찾았습니다. 그 중에서 악마들은 떠났고, 예수의 발 아래 앉아서, 옷을 입고, 제정신을 차리고 있습니다. 그리고 그들은 두려웠습니다.“ 누가(Luke, ch. viii. 32-37.) “No, you must manage without rights; don’t aggravate the meanness of your supposition by stupidity. You are not lucky to-day. By the way, you surely can’t be afraid of public opinion and that you will be blamed for this ‘great happiness’? If that’s it, for God’s sake don’t alarm yourself. It’s not your doing at all and you are not responsible to anyone. When I opened your door yesterday, you didn’t even know who was coming in. It was simply my caprice, as you expressed it just now, and nothing more! You can look every one in the face boldly and triumphantly!” "아니오, 당신은 권리 없이 살아가야 합니다; 어리석음으로 인해 당신의 추정의 비열함을 악화시키지 마세요. 당신은 오늘 운이 좋지 않아요. 그나저나, 여론을 두려워할 수 없고, 이 ''위대한 행복''의 원인으로 비난받을 수도 있다고요? 그게 다라면, 제발 놀라지 마세요. 그것은 당신이 한 일이 아니며 당신은 누구에게도 책임지지 않습니다. 어제 문을 열었을 때 누가 들어오는지도 몰랐잖아요. 방금 말씀하신 대로 제 변덕일 뿐 그 이상은 아니에요! 여러분은 모든 사람의 얼굴을 대담하고 의기양양하게 바라볼 수 있습니다!" “Your words, that laugh, have been making me feel cold with horror for the last hour. That ‘happiness’ of which you speak frantically is worth … everything to me. How can I lose you now? I swear I loved you less yesterday. Why are you taking everything from me to-day? Do you know what it has cost me, this new hope? I’ve paid for it with life.” "당신의 그 웃음소리는 지난 한 시간 동안 저를 공포에 떨게 했습니다. 당신이 미친 듯이 말하는 그 ''행복''은 나에게 모든 것이 될 만한 가치가 있어요. 이제 어떻게 당신을 잃을 수 있겠어요? 어제는 당신을 덜 사랑했다고 맹세해요. 왜 나한테서 모든 걸 빼앗아가나요? 이 새로운 희망이 날 얼마나 희생시켰는지 알아요? 목숨 걸고 샀습니다.“ “I’ve tried my strength everywhere. You advised me to do this ‘that I might learn to know myself.’ As long as I was experimenting for myself and for others it seemed infinite, as it has all my life. Before your eyes I endured a blow from your brother; I acknowledged my marriage in public. But to what to apply my strength, that is what I’ve never seen, and do not see now in spite of all your praises in Switzerland, which I believed in. I am still capable, as I always was, of desiring to do something good, and of feeling pleasure from it; at the same time I desire evil and feel pleasure from that too. But both feelings are always too petty, and are never very strong. My desires are too weak; they are not enough to guide me. On a log one may cross a river but not on a chip. I say this that you may not believe that I am going to Uri with hopes of any sort. "저는 모든 곳에서 제 힘을 다했습니다. 내가 나 자신과 다른 사람들을 위해 실험하는 한, 그것은 내 모든 삶을 가지고 있기 때문에 무한한 것처럼 보였습니다. 주님 앞에서 주의 형제에게 한 방 먹였더니, 사람들 앞에서 내 결혼을 인정하였습니다. 하지만 제 힘을 어떻게 써야 할지, 그건 제가 본 적도 없고, 제가 믿었던 스위스에서 여러분이 칭찬해 주셨음에도 불구하고 지금 보지 못하고 있습니다. 나는 언제나 그랬듯이 여전히 선한 일을 하고 싶어하고 그것으로부터 기쁨을 느끼는 능력이 있습니다. 동시에 악을 갈망하고 그것으로부터도 기쁨을 느낍니다. 하지만 두 가지 감정 모두 항상 너무 하찮고, 결코 그렇게 강하지 않습니다. 나의 욕망은 너무 약해서 나를 인도하기에 충분하지 않습니다. 통나무 위에서는 강을 건널 수 있지만 칩 위에서는 건널 수 없습니다. 제가 이런 말을 하는 이유는 제가 어떤 종류의 희망도 가지고 우리당에 갈 것이라는 것을 믿지 않으실 수도 있기 때문입니다. “I know I ought to kill myself, to brush myself off the earth like a nasty insect; but I am afraid of suicide, for I am afraid of showing greatness of soul. I know that it will be another sham again—the last deception in an endless series of deceptions. What good is there in deceiving oneself? Simply to play at greatness of soul? Indignation and shame I can never feel, therefore not despair. "나는 내가 자살해야 한다는 것을 알고 있습니다. 나를 더러운 벌레처럼 이 땅에서 쓸어내리려고 합니다. 그러나 나는 자살이 두렵습니다. 나는 영혼의 위대함을 보여주는 것이 두렵기 때문입니다. 나는 그것이 또 다른 엉터리, 끝없는 일련의 속임수라는 것을 알고 있습니다. 자신을 속여서 무슨 소용이 있겠어요? 단순히 영혼의 위대함을 가지고 놀기 위해서요? 분노와 수치심은 결코 느낄 수 없으니 절망도 아닙니다. -목차(Index)- 프롤로그(Prologue). 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics) 999선을 읽어야 하는 7가지 이유 조명화 편집장의 13가지 키워드로 읽는 표도르 도스토옙스키(Fyodor Dostoyevsky) 01. 사형을 선고받고, 시베리아 형무소에 복역한 러시아의 대문호(1821~1881) 02. 페트라셰프스키 서클(Petrashevsky Circle)(1847~1849) 03. 지하로부터의 수기(Записки изъ подполья, Notes from Underground)(1864) 04. 죄와 벌(Преступление и наказание, Crime and Punishment)(1867) 05. 백치(Идиот, The Idiot)(1869) 06. 악령(Бесы, Demons)(1872) 07. 카라마조프가의 형제들(Братья Карамазовы, The Brothers Karamazov)(1880) 08.

Masterpiece.

Crime and Punishment (pre-reform Russian; post-reform Russian: is a novel by the Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. It was first published in the literary journal The Russian Messenger in twelve monthly installments during 1866. It was later published in a single volume. It is the second of Dostoevsky''s full-length novels following his return from ten years of exile in Siberia. Crime and Punishment is considered the first great novel of his "mature" period of writing. The novel is often cited as one of the supreme achievements in literature.Crime and Punishment focuses on the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student in Saint Petersburg who formulates a plan to kill an unscrupulous pawnbroker for her money. Before the killing, Raskolnikov believes that with the money he could liberate himself from poverty and go on to perform great deeds. However, once it is done he finds himself racked with confusion, paranoia, and disgust for his actions. His justifications disintegrate completely as he struggles with guilt and horror and confronts the real-world consequences of his deed.

Russian author Fyodor Dostoyevsky is regarded by scholars and critics as one of the most important writers of the nineteenth century. His deeply philosophical novels present a nuanced look at some of the psychological struggles that men and women face. This novel, set against the backdrop of the initial rumblings of revolution in Imperial Russia, delves into the motivations that inspire extreme political ideologies.

Rodion Raskolnikov kills an unscrupulous pawnbroker for her cash, defending his actions by arguing that with the pawnbroker''s money he can perform good deeds to counterbalance the crime, while ridding the world of a vermin.

Through the story of the brilliant but conflicted young Raskolnikov and the murder he commits, Fyodor Dostoyevsky explores the theme of redemption through suffering. "Crime and Punishment" put Dostoyevsky at the forefront of Russian writers when it appeared in 1866 and is now one of the most famous and influential novels in world literature. The poverty-stricken Raskolnikov, a talented student, devises a theory about extraordinary men being above the law, since in their brilliance they think "new thoughts" and so contribute to society. He then sets out to prove his theory by murdering a vile, cynical old pawnbroker and her sister. The act brings Raskolnikov into contact with his own buried conscience and with two characters - the deeply religious Sonia, who has endured great suffering, and Porfiry, the intelligent and discerning official who is charged with investigating the murder - both of whom compel Raskolnikov to feel the split in his nature. Dostoyevsky provides readers with a suspenseful, penetrating psychological analysis that goes beyond the crime - which in the course of the novel demands drastic punishment - to reveal something about the human condition: The more we intellectualize, the more imprisoned we become. "Dostoyevsky gives me more than any scientist, more than Gauss." -Albert Einstein "Dostoyevsky wrote of the unconscious as if it were conscious; that is in reality the reason why his characters seem ''pathological'', while they are only visualized more clearly than any other figures in imaginative literature... He was in the rank in which we set Dante, Shakespeare and Goethe." -Edwin Muir "The greatest crime novel of all time." -Thomas Mann "''Crime and Punishment'' remains the best of all murder stories, a century and a third after its publication. We have to read it - though it is harrowing - because, like Shakespeare, it alters our consciousness." -Harold Bloom

Summer had come, and Velchaninoff, contrary to his expectations, was still in St. Petersburg. His trip to the south of Russia had fallen through, and there seemed no end to the business which had detained him. This business-which was a lawsuit as to certain property-had taken a very disagreeable aspect. Three months ago the thing had appeared to be by no means complicated-in fact, there had seemed to be scarcely any question as to the rights and wrongs of the matter, but all seemed to change suddenly. "Everything else seems to have changed for the worse, too!" said Velchaninoff to himself, over and over again. He was employing a clever lawyer-an eminent man, and an expensive one, too; but in his impatience and suspicion he began to interfere in the matter himself. He read and wrote papers-all of which the lawyer put into his waste-paper basket-holus bolus; called in continually at the courts and offices, made inquiries, and confused and worried everybody concerned in the matter; so at least the lawyer declared, and begged him for mercy''s sake to go away to the country somewhere. But he could not make up his mind to do so. He stayed in town and enjoyed the dust, and the hot nights, and the closeness of the air of St. Petersburg, things which are enough to destroy anyone''s nerves. His lodgings were somewhere near the Great Theatre; he had lately taken them, and did not like them. Nothing went well with him; his hypochondria increased with each day, and he had long been a victim to that disorder. Velchaninoff was a man who had seen a great deal of the world; he was not quite young, thirty-eight years old-perhaps thirty-nine, or so; and all this "old age," as he called it, had "fallen upon him quite unawares." However, as he himself well understood, he had aged more in the quality than in the number of the years of his life; and if his infirmities were really creeping upon him, they must have come from within and not from outside causes. He looked young enough still. - Taken from "The Eternal Husband" written by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Fyodor Dostoyevsky tells the story of a man who is "too conscious." The man, whose name we never learn is so aware of his own thoughts and feelings as to cause him to be indecisive and overly self-critical. Add in his belief that societal expectations are shaping his actions. Notes From Underground is one of Fyodor Dostoyevsky''s most well renowned novels. It is thought to be one of the first existentialist Russian works. The novella is the disorganized memoir of an unknown narrator, who is referred to by critics as the Underground Man. His narration is disjointed and unreliable, and is colored by a general sense of disdain. The reoccurring themes in Dostoyevsky''s Notes From Underground, such as hopelessness, self-consciousness, and his grotesque Gogol-esque style of prose, proved to hold much literary influence on 20th century Russian writers, exemplified in novels such as We, Envy, and Master and Margarita.

Crime and Punishment is a novel by the Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. It was first published in the literary journal The Russian Messenger in twelve monthly installments during 1866. It was later published in a single volume.

Reproduction of the original: Poor Folk by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

This annotated and unabridged newly edited version contains illustrated biography of Fyodor Dostoyevsky.The title of the novel, "The Idiot," is an ironic reference to the main character of the work (Prince Lev Nikolaevich Muishkin). His generosity, kindness, and simplicity surround him by mistakenly thinking that he lacks wisdom and discernment. Dostoevsky''s task was to create the kind of "kind and all-positive" human being and to know what would lead to such a unique personality in the midst of earthly conflicts, desires, passions, and selfishness. As a result, we received one of the most wonderful novels in the history of literature. Published in 1869.

Crime and Punishment follows Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student who formulates and executes a plan to kill an unscrupulous pawnbroker for her cash. Raskolnikov, in attempts to defend his actions, argues that with the pawnbroker''s money he can perform good deeds to counterbalance the crime, while ridding the world of a vermin.

Uncle''s Dream by Fyodor Dostoyevsky was written following his five year exile to Siberia where he was sent to serve in a hard labor camp. Following what could only have been a harrowing and harsh existence in Russia''s infamous prison for political and social prisoners, one would expect Dostoyevsky''s work to have been dark and bitter. Rather, Uncle''s Dream is a humorous and yet scathing commentary on Russian provincial high-society. Fyodor Mikhaylovich sometimes transliterated Dostoevsky, was a Russian novelist, journalist, and short-story writer whose psychological penetration into the human soul had a profound influence on the 20th century novel. Dostoevsky was the second son of a former army doctor. He was educated at home and at a private school. Shortly after the death of his mother in 1837 he was sent to St. Petersburg, where he entered the Army Engineering College. Dostoevsky''s father died in 1839, most likely of apoplexy, but it was rumored that he was murdered by his own serfs. Dostoevsky graduated as a military engineer, but resigned in 1844 to devote himself to writing. His first novel, Poor Folk appeared in 1846. That year he joined a group of utopian socialists. He was arrested in 1849 and sentenced to death, commuted to imprisonment in Siberia. Dostoevsky spent four years in hard labor and four years as a soldier in Semipalatinsk, a city in what it is today Kazakhstan. Dostoevsky returned to St. Petersburg in 1854 as a writer with a religious mission and published three works that derive in different ways from his Siberia experiences: The House of the Dead, (1860) a fictional account of prison life, The Insulted and Injured, which reflects the author''s refutation of naive Utopianism in the face of evil, and Winter Notes on Summer Impressions, his account of a trip to Western Europe.

This eBook edition of "Another Man''s Wife And A Husband Under The Bed" has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Another Man''s Wife and a Husband under the Bed is a humorous short story by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. The novella looks like a cliché of the vaudeville genre. The theme of the love triangle (or rather the polygon, given the number of heroin''s lovers), the ridiculous and pathetic adulterer husbands (always much older than their wives), the idea that a young wife is necessarily lying, fickle and unfaithful, many misunderstandings which lead to situations, but also plenty of dialogues, improbabilities and unexpected twists of all sorts give this sketch a look of a "theater of the boulevard".
