This essential reference source for Dostoevskii scholars charts the great novelist's relationship to, and reception in, Britain. Reprinting a number of articles for the first time in English, as well as essays by noted British scholars, this book brings together a wealth of material on Dostoevskii's visit to Britain, the extent to which he drew inspiration from British writers and thinkers, and the impact he made on the culture. A detailed bibliography designed to assist further research is appended.
