Williams -- A biographical prologue -- Chronology of Feodor Dostoevsky -- Resurrection from the underground: Feodor Dostoevsky -- Descent into the inferno -- Underground psychology -- Underground metaphysics -- Resurrection -- Mimetic desire in the underground.In a fascinating analysis of critical themes in Feodor Dostoevsky's work, René Girard explores the implications of the Russian author's "underground," a site of isolation, alienation, and resentment. Brilliantly translated, this book is a testament to Girard's remarkable engagement with Dostoevsky's work, through which he discusses numerous aspects of the human condition, including desire, which Girard argues is "triangular" or "mimetic"-copied from models or mediators whose objects of desire become our own. Girard's interdisciplinary approach allows him to shed new light on religion, spiritStudies in violence, mimesis, and culture.Electronic books.891.73/3Girard René1923-386685Williams James G.1936-8470MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463867303321Resurrection from the underground2456273UNINA
