Crime and Punishment: The Coulson Translation Backgrounds and Sources : Essays in Criticism

Jessie Coulsonâ€™s translation provides the text for the Third Edition of this acclaimed Norton Critical Edition.
New footnotes have been added, based on discoveries by the leading Soviet Dostoevsky scholar, Sergei Belov. "Backgrounds and Sources", highly praised in the Second Edition, remains unaltered. Included are a detailed map of nineteenth-century St. Petersburg, selections from Dostoevskyâ€™s notebooks and letters, and a crucial passage from an early draft of his novel. Noteworthy among the several new "Essays in Criticism" are a little-known but important passage by Leo Tolstoy on Raskolnikov; an essay by Sergei Belov; observations by the Russian literary theoretician and scholar Mikhail Bakhtin; and an essay by the Nobel laureate Czeslaw Milosz. A Chronology of Dostoevskyâ€™s Life and a Selected Bibliography are also included.
