Condannato ai lavori forzati per attività sovversive, Dostoevskij visse per quattro anni in un penitenziario siberiano. Da quell'esperienza estrema, fatta di dolore e sopravvivenza, nacque Memorie da una casa di morti (1861), uno dei suoi romanzi più potenti e sconvolgenti. Attraverso lo sguardo di un detenuto nobile, Aleksandr Petrovič, l'autore racconta la vita quotidiana in una colonia penale della Siberia zarista: il duro lavoro, la fame, la violenza, ma anche l'umanità sorprendente dei condannati, con le loro storie, le loro colpe e la loro disperata speranza di redenzione.

"Va bene così, ne sono contento", pensai, "sono proprio contento di apparirle ripugnante; la cosa mi fa piacere...". Diviso in due parti, la prima è intitolata "Il sottosuolo", la seconda "A proposito della neve bagnata" e pubblicato nel 1864, "Memorie dal sottosuolo" è uno straordinario monologo nel quale il protagonista si scaglia contro gli ideali di una società basata su scienza e ragione.

Mademoiselle de Montpensier (1627-1693), cugina di Luigi XIV, era fiera di essere più francese di lui (Luigi aveva madre spagnola), più Borbone (i suoi genitori appartenevano entrambi a quella famiglia) e più parigina (era nata al Louvre, non a Saint-Germain come Luigi). Era una donna sportiva, casta, energica e impulsiva, a volte fino alla balordaggine.Dovette vergognarsi di suo padre, il debole e intrigante duca di Orléans, fratello di Luigi XIII, ma non si rassegnò: nei torbidi tempi della Fronda, si buttò a surrogarlo come poteva sui campi di battaglia, sino a far cannoneggiare le truppe reali dagli spalti della Bastiglia.
