RUS 156 - Dostoevsky’s Underground Man in Russian Literature

Semester Hours: 3

Periodically

No work of Russian literature is more controversial than Dostoevsky’s Notes From the Underground. We will examine several different perspectives on the novel, starting with its first critical reception in 1864 and continuing to the present day. Readings include subsequent manifestations of Dostoevsky’s rebellious anti-hero in the works of Tolstoy, Kuprin, Gorky, Venedikt Erofeev, Edward Limonov and Tatiana Tolstaya. The course is conducted entirely in Russian.
