Dostoevsky's Polyphonic Talent

This book illuminates the connectedness of Dostoevsky's literary art with his philosophical and psychological brilliance. Dostoevsky wrote and thought polyphonically. His polyphonic method is present in both his special literary technique and his distinctive way of probing theological, social, and philosophical depths. This collection of original papers from scholars at two Dostoevsky conferences at the University of North Texas focuses on how Dostoevsky's literary art and philosophical insights enrich one another.
