Dobuzhinsky "White Nights" (1848) - one of the main works in the early work of F. M. Dostoevsky (1821 1881). For all, it would seem, plot simplicity, this story in its color and lyrical elevation takes a special place among his creations of this period and is associated with them a lot of parallels. Together with "White Nights" published a series of feuilletons Dostoevsky "Petersburg Chronicle" (1847), printed in the newspaper "St. Petersburg Vedomosti. It was in "Petersburg Chronicle" that the image of the dreamer, vividly embodied in "White Nights", appeared. The text of "White Nights" is accompanied by illustrations by M. V. Dobuzhinsky. Now recognized as a kind of "calling card" Dostoevsky 1840s, these drawings were first reproduced in the edition of the story, released in 1923 by the Petrograd publishing house "Aquilon". In the same year, with Dobuzhinsky's illustrations, the book "Dostoevsky's Petersburg" by the remarkable scholar and local historian N. P. Antsiferov (1889-1958), devoted to the city topography in the writer's works, was published by the publishing house "Brockhaus-Efron". The present edition contains both books - Dostoevsky's and Antsiferov's, united by cycles of Dobuzhinsky's drawings, executed in the same stylistic key. The book is equipped with extensive historical and literary supplements, created mainly for this edition, including detailed commentaries on Dostoevsky's and Antsiferov's texts.
