How to Read Dostoevsky: Understanding Polyphony
from Philosophy for All · host Joshua
Send us Fan MailOne 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.Support the show--------------------------If you would want to support the channel and what I am doing, please follow me on Patreon:www.patreon.com/christianityforallWhere else to find Josh Yen:Philosophy YT: https://bit.ly/philforallEducation: https://bit.ly/joshyenBuisness: https://bit.ly/logoseduMy Website: https://joshuajwyen.com/
