Reading Faithfully reveals how Russian critics of the Silver Age (the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries) reread and remade Fyodor Dostoevsky for their era of religious renewal, amid a broader political embrace of liberal reform and radical politics. Lindsay Ceballos argues that most Silver Age critics engaged in a mode of critique approaching religious faith: critical faith in the moral and artistic value of Dostoevsky needed to overcome their doubts about his nationalist rhetoric and politics. Surveying leading critics on and theatrical adapters of Dostoevsky's fiction since his death in 1881, Ceballos advocates for new kinds of critical engagement with his work that draw on the example of Silver Age faithful reading but embrace more complexity and dissonance than critics were able to achieve in that period of fracture and upheaval.
Reading Faithfully provides a historical account of Russian culture in a pivotal period, bringing together literary, intellectual, and theater history into one narrative. Ceballos challenges Dostoevsky scholars, asking: what is the future of reading Dostoevsky in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine?
