| Abstract
|
:
|
"The Dostoevsky scholar Robert Louis Jackson said Dostoevsky's becoming is, of course, our own becoming; to know Dostoevsky has been to know our century and ourselves. Remembering the End: Dostoevsky as Prophet to Modernity pursues this notion while elucidating the spiritual realism of Dostoevsky's biblically-charged literature. This nineteenth century writer came to be regarded by many readers in the twentieth century as a prophet. But how does Dostoevsky remain prophetic for us now, in the twenty-first century? Remembering the End explores and assesses Dostoevsky's critique of modernity, with particular focus on the Grand Inquisitor, in The Brothers Karamazov, where his prophetic vision finds its most intense expression.

Kroeker and Ward show how Dostoevsky's work can help us to remember who we are in this moment in which - as individuals and members of communities - we are required to make critical choices about the meaning of justice, history, truth, and happiness. This book will be of interest to readers in comparative literature, ethics, political theory, philosophy, religious studies, and theology."--Jacket.
