The Karamazov Correspondence: Letters of Vladimir S. Soloviev

The Karamazov Correspondence: Letters of Vladimir S. Soloviev represents the first fully annotated and chronologically arranged collection of the Russian philosopher-poets 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 novelists life, and these letters reflect many of the qualities and contradictions that also personify the title characters of Dostoevskys last and greatest novel, The Brothers Karamazov. The selected letters cover all aspects of Solovievs 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.
