The Word that Causes Death's Defeat
Anna Akhmatova (1889–1966), one of twentieth-century Russia’s greatest poets, was viewed as a dangerous element by post-Revolution authorities. One of the few unrepentant poets to survive the Bolshevik revolution and subsequent Stalinist purges, she set for herself the artistic task of preserving the memory of pre-Revolutionary cultural heritage and of those who had been silenced. This book presents Nancy K. Anderson’s superb translations of three of Akhmatova’s most important poems: Requiem, a commemoration of the victims of Stalin’s Terror; The Way of All the Earth, a work to which the poet returned repeatedly over the last quarter-century of her life and which combines Old Russi...

Andrew Wyeth
One of Andrew Wyeth's most important paintings, Wind from the Sea, a recent gift to the National Gallery of Art, is also the artist's first full realization of the window as a recurring subject in his art.

The Perverted Ideal in Dostoevsky's "The Devils"
The characters in Dostoevsky's The Devils tend to see the protagonist Stavrogin as a savior figure. But Anderson, a scholar/ librarian at Yale University, maintains that Stavrogin is in fact an antichrist figure--an individual who asserts his will at any cost and represents Dostoevsky's idea of a strong man pushed to its extreme. Anderson also discusses revolutionary activity in the novel and the way in which the character Stephan Verkhovensky comes to represent ideal beauty.
