Brilliantly translated, this book is a testament to Girard's remarkable engagement with Dostoevsky's work, through which he discusses numerous aspects of the human condition, including desire, which Girard argues is \"triangular\" or \"mimetic\"--copied from models or mediators whose objects of desire become our own. Girard's interdisciplinary approach allows him to shed new light on religion, spirituality, and redemption in Dostoevsky's writing, culminating in a revelatory discussion of the author's spiritual understanding and personal integration. \u003ci\u003eResurrection \u003c\/i\u003eis an essential and thought-provoking companion to Dostoevsky's \u003ci\u003eNotes from the Underground\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRené Girard is a member of the French Academy, Emeritus Professor at Stanford University, and the author of several books that have been translated widely.
