- Abstract:
The review is devoted to the new monograph by DSc in Philology and one of Dostoevsky’s leading Russian scholars Boris Tikhomirov, Dostoevsky. Literary walks along Nevsky Prospekt. From the Winter Palace to Znamenskaya Square (2022). The book is written following the tradition of St. Petersburg local history studies started a century ago by N.P. Antsiferov (1889–1958). Tikhomirov fascinatingly and deeply, always relying on sources, talks about how different places on the main street of St. Petersburg are connected with Dostoevsky’s life and work and clarifies many information about the writer’s work and his social circle, introducing new facts into Dostoevsky studies.
