How to Read Dostoevsky: Understanding Polyphony
Update: 2025-11-02
Description
One of the great contributions to Dostoevsky and literary scholarship was Mikhail Bakhtin's work The Problem of Dostoevsky's Poetics. In this video, I build on this book showing how to understand Dostoevsky through a polyphonic lens and what this means for readers of his works. Understanding polyphony prevents simple oversimplifications of Dostoevsky's views.
