Recenzje

...[S]uperb...All of the volume's nine chapters do a convincing job of motivating a particular way of approaching Dostoevsky's great novel in a manner that is recognizably philosophical yet sensitive to the work's formal and dramatic handling of its content. The authors work in many traditions, yet there is a surprising uniformity of philosophical style and literary sensibility, and the reader has the impression of listening to a conversation unfold rather than a hearing an assemblage of disparate voices sound off on a common theme.
