As a modern reinterpretation of poetics, it bears comparison with Aristotle.\"Bakhtin's statement on the dialogical nature of artistic creation, and his differentiation of this from a history of monological commentary, is profoundly original and illuminating. This is a classic work on Dostoevsky and a statement of importance to critical theory.\" Edward Wasiolek\"Concentrating on the particular features of 'Dostoevskian discourse, ' how Dostoevsky structures a hero and a plot, and what it means to write dialogically, Bakhtin concludes with a major theoretical statement on dialogue as a category of language. One of the most important theories of the novel in this century.\" The Bloomsbury Review\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mikhail Bakhtin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0816612285\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780816612284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Minnesota Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/21\/1984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.09h x 6.13w x 0.90d","brand":"Mikhail Bakhtin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926481666303,"sku":"9780816612284","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_2b5ba31c-9496-4c31-ad86-7a2a49d35b77.jpg?v=1681083312","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/problems-of-dostoevskys-poetics-mikhail-bakhtin-9780816612284","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
