Dostoevsky and the Ethics of Narrative Form
Three questions of novelistic form preoccupied Fyodor Dostoevsky throughout his career: how to build suspense, how to end a narrative effectively, and how to distribute attention among major and minor characters. Dostoevsky and theEthics of Narrative Form traces Dostoevsky's indefatigable investigations into the ethical implications of his own formal choices. For Dostoevsky, these were much more than practical questions about novelistic craft; they were ethical questions as well.
In so doing, he anticipated some of the most pressing debates taking place in the study of narrative ethics Drawing on his drafts, notebooks, and writings on aesthetics, Greta Matzner-Gore argues that Dostoevsky wove the moral and formal questions that obsessed him into the fabric of his last three novels: Demons, The Adolescent, and The Brothers Karamazov.
