One critic, writing upon the publication of the final volume, casually tagged the series as the ultimate work on Dostoevsky "in any language, and quite possibly forever." Frank himself had not originally intended to undertake such a massive work. The endeavor began in the early 1960's as an exploration of Dostoevsky's fiction, but it later became apparent to Frank that a deeper appreciation of the fiction would require a more ambitious engagement with the writer's life, directly caught up as Dostoevsky was with the cultural and political movements of mid- and late-nineteenth-century Russia. Already in his forties, Frank undertook to learn Russian and embarked on what would become a five-volume work comprising more than 2,500 pages. The result is an intellectual history of nineteenth-century Russia, with Dostoevsky's mind as a refracting prism. The volumes have won numerous prizes, among them the National Book Critics Circle Award for Biography, the Christian Gauss Award of Phi Beta Kappa, the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, and the James Russell Lowell Prize of the Modern Language Association. 410 0$aACLS Humanities E-Book. 606 $aNovelists, Russian$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01039768 606 $aNovelists, Russian$y19th century$vBiography 608 $aBiographies. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNovelists, Russian. 615 0$aNovelists, Russian 676 $a891.7/3/3 676 $aB 700 $aFrank$b Joseph$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$036542 712 02$aAmerican Council of Learned Societies. 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248181803316 996 $aDostoevsky$92320175 997 $aUNISA
