Download or read book Dostoevsky’s The Gambler written by Svetlana Evdokimova and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2024-02-02 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novel The Gambler is one of the most profound literary works to treat the phenomenon of gambling with a remarkable depth of psychological analysis and a wide-ranging cultural and philosophical exploration of obsessive behavior, from addictive gambling to erotic passion. This novel delves into the cultural, psychological, and philosophical issues surrounding games of chance such as temporality, freedom, rebellion, choice, uncertainty, determinism, and creativity. This is the first book in English dedicated to The Gambler. This volume considers the phenomenon of gambling from a broad interdisciplinary perspective, focusing not only on medical and psychological concepts of gambling as pathology, but also on the broader cultural, philosophical, religious, and aesthetic aspects of the problem. What triggers fascination with risk-taking and various aleatory activities? What are the relations between gambling, play, and creativity? Can gambling be seen as a form of social or existential rebellion and protest or even a quest for freedom? Scholars from a variety of fields, including psychiatry, psychology, philosophy, literary studies, and musicology, have contributed to this volume and analyzed Dostoevsky’s view of gambling as a fundamental problem of human existence, with implications in the realms of philosophy, religion, and aesthetics.

Book excerpt: The Land of Cockayne is an impactful Italian fiction based on the passion for gambling and the sinful effect of the national lottery in Naples on all the classes of society. The lottery proves to be fun but ultimately a curse for the Marquis of Formosa, Gaetano, the glove-maker, Carmela, the factory girl, and her bold lover Raffaele. Cesare, a rich pastry maker, loses everything he has in the hope of obtaining money from the lottery for a new journey. The Marquis is a wreck and is ready to sacrifice his weak daughter, Lady Bianca, to his awful passion. A medium he and his friends take advice from about gambling makes him believe that Bianca's virtue may call on the spirits to indicate the lucky numbers. The Marquis ruins her health and happiness, trying to push the powerless, frail girl to see ghosts. The novel covers many significant events that follow in a way that will move the reader. The story presents incredibly the details on Naples, its people, and their never-ending desire to get rich through gambling, no matter the consequences.
