Pour raconter les événements si étranges survenus dernièrement dans notre ville, je suis obligé de remonter un peu plus haut et de donner au préalable quelques renseignements biographiques sur une personnalité distinguée: le très-honorable Stépan Trophimovitch Verkhovensky. Ces détails serviront d'introduction à la chronique que je me propose d'écrire. Je le dirai franchement: Stépan Trophimovitch a toujours tenu parmi nous, si l'on peut ainsi parler, l'emploi de citoyen; il aimait ce rôle à la passion, je crois même qu'il serait mort plutôt que d'y renoncer. Ce n'est pas que je l'assimile à un comédien de profession: Dieu m'en préserve, d'autant plus que, personnellement, je l'estime. Tout, dans son cas, pouvait être l'effet de l'habitude, ou mieux, d'une noble tendance qui, dès ses premières années, avait constamment poussé à rêver une belle situation civique. Par exemple, sa position de «persécuté» et d'»exilé» lui plaisait au plus haut point. Le prestige classique de ces deux petits mots l'avait séduit une fois pour toutes; en se les appliquant, il se grandissait à ses propres yeux, si bien qu'il finit à la longue par se hisser sur une sorte de piédestal fort agréable à la vanité.

About the Author:
Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian novelist, short story writer and essayist whose literary works explored human psychology in the troubled political, social, and spiritual context of nineteenth-century Russia. A student of the Nikolayev Military Engineering Institute, Dostoyevsky initially worked as an engineer, but began translating books to earn extra money. The publication of his first novel, Poor Folk, allowed him to join St. Petersburg s literary circles. A prolific writer, Dostoyevsky is best known for work from the latter part of his career, including the classic novels Crime and Punishment, The Idiot and The Brothers Karamazov. Dostoyevsky s influence extends to authors as diverse as Anton Chekhov, James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, and Jean-Paul Sartre, among many others. He died in 1881.
