Karamazov Correspondence
Letters of Vladimir S. Soloviev
«
“This book offers a panoramic view of Vladimir Soloviev’s spiritual-philosophical biography. The selected letters of the Russian philosopher-poet span three turbulent decades from 1871 to 1900, revealing a multitalented, adventurous, and erudite personality. … Wozniuk’s scholarship and skillful translation of Soloviev’s epistolary legacy make it possible for English-speaking readers to appreciate the passion, the existential commitment, and the unique vision that motivated Soloviev’s work. … Overall, Vladimir Wozniuk’s book is an impressive accomplishment in scholarship and literary translation, a true gift to the English-speaking scholars and students of Russian philosophy and literature.”

The Karamazov Correspondence: Letters of Vladimir S. Soloviev represents the first fully annotated and chronologically arranged collection of the Russian philosopher-poet's most important letters, the vast majority of which have never before been translated into English. Soloviev was widely known for his close association with Fyodor M. Dostoevsky in the final years of the novelist's life, and these letters reflect many of the qualities and contradictions that also personify the title characters of Dostoevsky's last and greatest novel, The Brothers Karamazov. The selected letters cover all aspects of Soloviev's life, ranging from vital concerns about human rights and the political and religious turmoil of his day to matters related to family and friends, his love life, and early drafts of his works, including poetic endeavors.
