"Samuel Koteliansky (1880-1955) fled the pogroms of Russia in 1911 and established himself as a friend of many of Britain's literati and intellectuals, who were fascinated by his homeland's more civilized side: the Ballets Russes, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and Chekhov. Kot, as he was known, soon became an indispensable guide to Russian culture for England's leading writers, artists, and intellectuals, who in turn helped introduce British audi ..."

"“You, not being a Dostoevsky fan won't get a full flavour of it,” Murry wrote to Lady Glenavy then.20 The full flavour was, of course, that there are few characters in all of world literature more loathsome than Dostoevsky's Smerdyakov. An illegitimate son of Fyodor Karamazov, Smerdyakov tortures stray cats as a child, lives in Fyodor's house as a lackey, and eventually commits patricide. His mere name, which is based on the word t ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-8130-1304-6, ISBN: 0-8130-1304-6

"In a comparative study, Galya Diment draws a novel comparison between two giants of Modernism and a relatively obscure 19th-century Russian Realist, claiming that the three writers all re-invented the idea of duality in literature. Focusing on Woolf's "To the Lighthouse", Joyce's "Ulysses" and Goncharov's "A Common Story", she introduces and redefines the idea of "co-consciousness" as the mechanism that allows each work to transcend the ..."

"Katherine Mansfield's passion for Russian literature and culture is well documented in her letters and notebooks. Anton Chekhov was not just one of her most significant literary influences, but also a mythological presence with whom she mentally communicated every day. The emotional bond became even stronger when she discovered that the two of them shared the same deadly disease. But her fascination with Russia and its culture extended ..."
