Аннотация

Gary Rosenshield is a PhD at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and was a professor at the Department of Slavic Languages and Literature at the same university. He is the author of Western Law, Russian Justice: Dostoevsky, the Jury Trial, and the Law and Pushkin and the Genres of Madness: The Masterpieces of 1833. He has also published Crime and Punishment: The Techniques of the Omniscient Author (Lisse: The Peter Ridder Press, 1978) from which we present the translation of the introduction and two chapters (“The Narrator, Raskolnikov, and the Epilogue” and “The Higher Point of View”). Joseph Frank, while discussing the creation process of Crime and Punishment, mentions Rosenshield’s study and recommend it as a “careful and perceptive analysis” and “one of the best studies devoted to the novel” (Dostoevsky: The Miraculous Years – 1865-1871, Princeton University Press, 1995). Victor Terras adds to the complimentary tone by saying that it is an excellent analysis
