Notes from Underground: A Norton Critical Edition (Norton Critical Editions)

The text for this edition of Notes from Underground is Michael Katzâ‚¬s acclaimed translation of the 1863 novel, which is introduced and annotated specifically for English-speaking readers.
"Backgrounds and Sources" includes relevant writings by Dostoevsky, among them "Winter Notes on Summer Impressions," the authorâ‚¬s account of a formative trip to the West. New to the Second Edition are excerpts from V. F. Odoevksyâ‚¬s "Russian Nights" and I. S. Turgenevâ‚¬s "Hamlet of Shchigrovsk District." In "Responses", Michael Katz links this seminal novel to the theme of the underground man in six famous works, two of them new to the Second Edition: an excerpt from M. E. Saltykov-Shchedrinâ‚¬s The Swallows, Woody Allenâ‚¬s Notes from the Overfed, Robert Walserâ‚¬s The Child, an excerpt from Ralph Ellisonâ‚¬s The Invisible Man, an excerpt from Yevgeny Zamyatinâ‚¬s We, and an excerpt from Jean-Paul Sartreâ‚¬s Erostratus. "Criticism" brings together eleven interpretations by both Russian and Western critics from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, two of them new to the Second Edition. Included are essays by Nikolai K. Mikhailovsky, Vasily Rozanov, Lev Shestov, M. M. Bakhtin, Ralph E. Matlaw, Victor Erlich, Robert Louis Jackson, Gary Saul Morson, Richard H. Weisberg, Joseph Frank, and Tzvetan Todorov. A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
