http://dostoevskycriticaljournal.blogspot.com/2007/07/blog-post_280.html

Thursday, July 19, 2007. A Mystic Looks at Swedenborg. In James F.

http://dostoevskycriticaljournal.blogspot.com/2007/08/for-good-time-call-gruschenka.html

Thursday, August 9, 2007. For a good time, call Grushenka. In Dostoevsky's "Brothers Karamazov" polyphonic novel. But given the damage that is dealt out in her name: death, exile and punishment, disgrace, one wonders if this shoe fits the seductive curve of that lovely little foot.

Dostoevskii Critical Journal: Quotidian Days

http://dostoevskycriticaljournal.blogspot.com/2007/07/paeon-to-morson.html

Saturday, July 28, 2007. S 2001 essay, "Prosaics: An Approach to the Humanities" pleads for "a way of thinking" that "focuses on the ordinary, messy, quotidian facts of daily life - in short, on the prosaic,". Tolstoy contrasts Anna's grandiosity with other characters prosaic goodness, like Dolly and Kitty, illustrating their "moral compass" through daily, tiny actions taken, such as Kitty with her mother and the peasant women making jam. Does anyone in Dostoevsky ever do anything so ordinary? A Mystic L...

Dostoevskii Critical Journal: Holy Fools

http://dostoevskycriticaljournal.blogspot.com/2007/07/holy-fool.html

Sunday, July 29, 2007. Argues that the holy fool "code of contrasts" essentially defines the Russian character. Despite the centrality of this form of conduct in Russian culture, Soviet scholars dismissed or minimized the "holy fool" generally, in their critique of Dostoevsky in particular. Bakhtin, indeed, called the "holy fool" device in Dostoevsky as "a sort of form, a sort of aestheticism - but, as it were, in reverse" (Bakhtin, Problems. Uses the term " idiot. 238) Alas for Ivan Karamazov, he is no ...
