Хозяйка (Gospodyni)

Фёдор Михайлович Достоевский, Fiodor Michajłowicz Dostojewski

Повесть Ф. М. Достоевского 201eХозяйка201d, опубликованная в 1847 году, рассказывает об интеллигентном герое с характером молодого 201eмечтателя201d и о том, как его представление о жизни сталкивается с существованием простых людей из народа: он снимает угол у четы мещан, судьба и история которых с каждым днем кажется жильцу все таинственнее и необъяснимее. Повесть которая начинается, как простая история молодого незадачливого героя, неожиданно превращается в запутанное сказание, схожее с древними мифами и наполненное сложнейшим содержанием. Этот тип персонажа психологически более сложный в отличие от прежних чиновников, он вобрал в себя черты самого Достоевского. Образу 201eмечтателя201d будет отведено центральное положение во многих последующих произведениях: 201eНеточка Незванова201d, 201eБелые ночи201d, позднее 201eПреступление и наказание201d.

There were about forty stories and novels under his own name plus others under various pseudonyms, including John York Cabot, Bruce Dennis, Duncan Farnsworth, Richard Vardon and others. Some of OBriens work was space opera or other routine adventure, but many of his stories betray a strain of humor, not unlike Henry Kuttners at that time. OBrien was a sharp and creative writer who liked stories of madcap invention as well as adventure.
