Перевод:
quintet
[существительное]
квинтет
Тезаурус:
Draped in a red feather boa, she playfully cuddled her
quintet
of dancers, all of whom were dressed in Sailors outfits.
One of the
quintet
not only means business but high-minded, selfless business.
The
quintet
is Peter Verkhovensky's plaything.
One of the members of the
quintet
bears the quaint name of Tolkachenko.
One of his killers is the high-minded Virginsky who " will never, never abandon these bright hopes" (my italics), and another member of the
quintet
is Shigalov who pulls out of the affair at the very last moment, not from fear or pity or remorse but because the murder "is in direct contradiction of my programme" - of Shigalov's own brand of revolutionary ideology.
Another member of the
quintet
, one Lyamshin, a post-office clerk, gets himself asked to parties where "he would give imitations of a pig, a thunder storm, a confinement, with the first cry of the baby, etc., etc.; that was what he was invited for"; and later we hear of him "mimicking, when requested, various types of jews, a deaf peasant woman making her confession, or the birth of a child".
"But they will lose their reason," says Peter Verkhovensky's lieutenant when Peter has argued that the
quintet
will hold together after the murder "unless they've lost their reason".
The idea which has swallowed Kirillov is suicide, not suicide for the common cause of the
quintet
as Dostoevsky first proposed, but to achieve a metaphysical and religious purpose; and thus he plays a big part in the transformation of a neat political generation-gap story into a larger, more complicated object.
We have already met Lyamshin, the member of the
quintet
whose party act is to mimic women in labour and new-born babies.
Initially, in November, which is three months after Stavrogin was quoting Hamlet, Kirillov's " ROLE IS A FACTUAL ONE " - by which Dostoevsky means he "volunteered to shoot himself for the common cause" and leave a letter claiming responsibility for Shatov's murder, thus diverting the attention of the police from Peter Verkhovensky and the
quintet
.
JOE HARRIOTT Memories of the great altoist are evoked by a
quintet
featuring three members of his band: trumpeter Shake Keane, bassist Coleridge Goode, and drummer Bobby Orr.
Even if the band had been the
quintet
of The Hot Club de France, which it very nearly was with Grappelli present, their spirits wouldn't have revived.
Flanking him as it were is the wife of another familiar figure and
quintet
member, Virginsky.
