Description: "Backgrounds and Sources" includes relevant writings by Dostoevsky, among them "Winter Notes on Summer Impressions," the author s account of a formative trip to the West.

Saltykov-Shchedrin s The Swallows, Woody Allen s Notes from the Overfed, Robert Walser s The Child, an excerpt from Ralph Ellison s The Invisible Man, an excerpt from Yevgeny Zamyatin s We, and an excerpt from Jean-Paul Sartre s Erostratus. "Criticism" brings together eleven interpretations by both Russian and Western critics from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, two of them new to the Second Edition. Included are essays by Nikolai K. Mikhailovsky, Vasily Rozanov, Lev Shestov, M. M. Bakhtin, Ralph E. Matlaw, Victor Erlich, Robert Louis Jackson, Gary Saul Morson, Richard H.
