Winter notes on summer impressions
Dostoyevsky, Fyodor 1821-1881
Winter notes on summer impressions / Fyodor Dostoyevsky ; translated by Kyril FitzLyon. - London : Alma Classics, 2016. - xiv, 141 pages : illustrations (black and white) ; 20 cm.
In June 1862, Dostoevsky left Petersburg on his first excursion to Western Europe. Ostensibly making the trip to consult Western specialists about his epilepsy, he also wished to see first-hand the source of the Western ideas he believed were corrupting Russia. Over the course of his journey he visited a number of major cities, including Berlin, Paris, London, Florence, Milan and Vienna.
His record of the trip, Winter Notes on Summer Impressions – first published in the February 1863 issue of Vremya, the periodical he edited – is the chrysalis out of which many elements of his later masterpieces developed.
