Записки из подполья. Вечный муж. Кроткая

by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Федор Михайлович Достоевский

В настоящее издание вошли три повести Ф. М. Достоевского: «Записки из подполья», «Вечный муж» и «Кроткая». «Записки из подполья» — увертюра Достоевского к его пятикнижию, повесть точно поставленных вопросов и точно найденных интонаций. Боль пронизывает слово героя, одинокого, безымянного рассказчика, который ведет дневник, рассказывая о своей печальной жизни. Повести «Вечный муж» и «Кроткая» — своего рода психологические этюды, размышления писателя на тему любви и семейной жизни. Любовные драмы в обеих повестях становятся лишь основой для развития действия, в то время как внимание автора сосредоточено на исследовании двух человеческих типов — тирана и жертвы.

Took a long time to wade through the first half, my eyes often losing focus before turning the page, shaking myself awake to give the section one more try. Here's a question featured in my lesson plan for Tuesday: Can we assume that we all want to feel good about ourselves and not bad about ourselves? Underground, that assumption is firmly disproven, like that worst part of myself crawled out and tried living independently. Without much success, to be fair.
From section V: "For the direct, lawful, immediate fruit of consciousness is inertia [...] ingenuous people and active figures are all active simply because they are dull and narrow minded. How to explain it? Here's how: as a consequence of their narrow-mindedness, they take the most immediate and secondary causes for the primary ones, and thus become convinced more quickly and easily than others that they have found an indisputable basis for their doings [...] Oh, gentlemen, perhaps I really regard myself as an intelligent man only because throughout my entire life I've never been able to start or finish anything." Mm! Awful.

Siempre le diré que si a un depressed dostoyevski… En realidad es fuerte cómo un señor en Rusia hace 150 años se ponía a divagar, lo escribía y a día de hoy me encuentro identificada con su rayada, el problema de la gente hiperconsciente de sí misma, supongo que hemos existido siempre. La segunda parte well, que decir, he’s just a man.

"Para nós é pesado, até, ser gente, gente com corpo e sangue autênticos, próprios; temos vergonha disso, consideramos tal fato um opróbrio e procuramos ser uns homens gerais que nunca existiram. Somos natimortos, já que não nascemos de pais vivos, e isto nos agrada cada vez mais. Em breve, inventaremos algum modo de nascer de uma ideia."

El precio de ser demasiado consciente es la imposibilidad de el auto engaño, ergo de todas sus ventajas. El hombre del subsuelo ha pretendido responder a las preguntas más duras con la honestidad más dolorosa.

this read like a teenage girls diary at times, and while that was entertaining, not enough sustenance for me to actually enjoy the book. i still adore pevear and volokhonskys translations and dostoyevskys writing, this one just wasn’t for me.
