Yakov Petrovich Polonsky … he led Dostoevsky to the window, looking out onto the parade ground, and asked:

- Learn Fyodor? Dostoevsky worried … 
- Yes! .. Yes! .. Still … How not to know? ..

And little by little, he began to talk about this morning, when he was in the castle dungeon, someone came and ordered to put on his clothes and took … Where to? He did not know how they did not know his friends … Everyone was so sure that the death penalty although they were, but was canceled the king, that the thought of death does not come to mind. Transported in a closed carriage, with icy windows to nowhere. And suddenly – a parade, this one is the ground under the window which now stood Dostoevsky.

I did not hear the beginning of the story Dostoevsky, but then did not say a word.

- Here at once understood everything … On the scaffold … Someone else, a loud voice, “was sentenced to death by firing squad …” And some buzz around, vague, eerie hum … Thousands of red spots frostbitten human faces, thousands of prying eyes of living … Still worried, they say … Worried about something living. And then death … It can not be! Can not! .. Who took so joking with us? The king?But he pardoned … After all, this is worse than any punishment … Especially these greedy eyes all around … Pillars … Someone tied … And the frost … Tooth for a tooth does not get … And within a riot! ..Excruciating riot … It can not be! It can not be that I, among the thousands of living – through about five – ten minutes they would not exist! .. Do not pack it in your head, and not in the head, but somehow in my whole being.

He paused, and suddenly changed completely. I thought he was one of us has seen or heard whispers, and he stared into the distance and just going through everything in detail, which suffered in the terrible frosty morning.

- I did not believe, did not realize until he saw the cross … Priest … we refused to confess, but the cross kiss … They could not even joke with the cross! .. Could not play a tragicomedy … It is quite clear, I was aware of … Death is inevitable. If only more … And suddenly attacked indifference … Yes, yes, yes! It is indifference. Do not pity the life and no one was sorry … All seemed insignificant before the last terrible moments go somewhere … into the unknown, into the darkness … I said goodbye to Aleksei Nikolaevich Plescheevym. - EL, with someone else … A neighbor pointed out to me on the cart, covered mat. ”Coffin” – he whispered to me … I remember how, tied to posts two more … And I must have been quietly watching them … I remember a dull consciousness of the inevitability of death …That’s stupid … And the news of the suspension of the execution apprehended too stupid … There was no joy, no happiness back to life … Range of noise, shouting … And I was like – I’ve gone through the worst. Yes, yes! The worst thing … Grigoriev unhappy mad … The others survived? - It is not clear! .. And not even a cold … But …

Dostoevsky was silent. Yakov Petrovich went to him and said gently:

- Well, it was all gone … And now let’s go to the hostess … a cup of tea. 
- Has it? - Dostoevsky said mysteriously …

from “Memories of Fyodor Dostoevsky in Siberia”

Fyodor … … especially frequently visited family Isaev. They sat in the evening and agreed to give lessons to their only child – Pasha, smart boy of eight or nine years. Maria D. Isaev was, if I’m not mistaken, the daughter of the headmaster in Astrakhan and got married to a teacher there Isayev. How did he come to Siberia – I do not remember. Isayev was sick, consumptive and drank heavily. He was a quiet and gentle. Maria’s been thirty years, quite a beautiful blonde of medium height, very thin, a passionate and ecstatic. Even then played a sinister glow on her pale face, and a few years later consumption carried her to the grave. She was well-read, very educated, inquisitive, kind and extremely alive and impressionable. In Fyodor Mikhailovich she took a warm interest, caressed it, I do not think it is deeply appreciated, rather regretted the unfortunate, downtrodden fate. Perhaps even attached to him, but in love with him did not. She knew that he had epilepsy, he has an extreme need for funds, and the man he is “no future”, she said. Fyodor Mikhailovich same feeling of pity and compassion took for mutual love and fell in love with all the ardor of youth. Fyodor … Once a home sullen, distraught and announces to me with despair that Isaev translated in Kuznetsk, 500 miles from Semipalatinsk. ”And after she agreed not contradict, that’s outrageous!” – He repeated bitterly. The stage of separation … I will never forget. Dostoevsky was sobbing violently, like a child. Twitched … horse, moved the crew climbed clubs road dust has been barely can see the wagon and its rider, fades postal bell … Dostoevsky and everything is stock-still, silent, his head bowed, tears rolling down her cheeks. I walked over and took his hand – he seemed to awake from a long sleep, and without saying a word, he sat down with me in the carriage. We went back to her at dawn. Dostoevsky did not lay down – all to walk and walk around the room and said something to himself. Plagued by mental anxiety and sleepless night, he went to a nearby camp for teaching. When he returned, lay all day, did not eat, drink and just nervously smoked one pipe after another. M. … Dmitry Isaev, fleeing into the wilderness with her husband, a drunk and always sick, languished and was bored. All her letters were full of complaints of his solitude, the dire need to share the living word, take heart. In subsequent letters, more often it was mentioned the name of a new acquaintance in Kuznetsk “friend Maria’s husband, pretty young teacher. Each letter opinion of him becoming enthusiastic and torzhennee, praised his kindness, his affection, and his high spirit. Dostoevsky was tormented by jealousy, it was scary to look at his dark mood, reflecting on his health. … When she was left alone, said Fyodor directly to their lives care about her and her fatherless Pasha. Soul … What a high, gentle, be accused of jealousy was Fyodor Mikhailovich, judge for yourself by reading his thoughtful efforts of his rival – Vergunova teacher. In a letter to me … Dostoevsky writes, “lap” is ready for him to ask. Now he is dearer to me than siblings, is not a sin to ask, it’s worth it … For God’s sake, do something – think, and be a brother to me mother. “ But … December 21, 1856 the fate finally smiled Fyodor. In a letter dated December 21, 1856 Dostoevsky wrote to me: “If you do not interfere with one thing, I’m getting married to the carnival – you know on anyone. She loves me so far. “ So … well, finally finished Dostoevsky’s novel, which captured it all, cost him sleepless nights, anxiety, health and money, but … hardly gave him true happiness …

FM STORY STARTS HE epilepsy 
From “Memories of Childhood”

… My sister and I knew that Fyodor suffers epilepsy, but the disease was surrounded in our eyes so magical horror that we never dare to touch a remote hint of this issue. To our amazement, he brought it up and began to tell us under what circumstances occurred to him first seizure. He … said that this disease started him when he was not in prison, but in the settlement. He was terribly lonely and then languished for months have not seen a living soul, which could spread the word reasonable. Suddenly, quite unexpectedly, came to him one of his old friend. It was … it was the night before Easter Sunday. But the joy date they have forgotten what this night, and sat at home all of it away, talking, not noticing the time or fatigue, and getting drunk on his own words.

They said that they were both just more expensive – about literature, art and philosophy of religion at last touched. Comrade was an atheist, Dostoevsky-believer, both fervent belief, each in his own way.

- There is a God, there is! - Shouted, finally, Dostoevsky wild with excitement. At that moment the church bells next to the light of Christ’s matins. The air hummed and swayed all, 
- And I felt, – said Fyodor, – that heaven descended to the ground and engulfed me. I really comprehended God and penetration nulsya Him. Yes, there is a God! - I cried, and I do not remember anything else. 
- You all, healthy people, – he continued – and has no idea what is happiness, the happiness that we experience, epileptics, for a second before a seizure. Muhammad in his Quran says that he saw heaven and was in him. All the clever fools believe that he’s just a liar and a cheat. No! He’s not lying! He really was in paradise, in a fit of epilepsy who suffer as I do. I do not know whether this bliss lasts seconds or hours or months, but, believe a word, all the joy that can give life, I would not take him! …

Fyodor … sitting at a small, simple table, drinking tea, smoking their cigarettes, and in his hand was a book. He is glad to see me, hugged and kissed me … - See what I wanted to tell you, – said Dostoevsky – so you can not go, you do something with them … and do not say, and do not tell … I know you want me to say, I quite understand your condition, I had gone through it. This is the same my nervous illness, perhaps in a different form, but, in essence, the same. My dear, listen to me, do something with them, or you may end badly … After all, I told you – I then fate helped saved me hard labor … entirely new person to do … And just what was decided, so now all my flour and over, even during the investigation. When I found myself in a fortress, I think it’s the end of me, I thought that the three days can not stand, and – suddenly very quiet. After all, I was doing there?., I wrote “Little Hero” – read, is it evident anger, agony? I dreamed of quiet, good, good dreams, and then more and be better. Oh!it was a great happiness for me: Siberia and hard labor! Say, horror, anger, bitterness about the legality of a say! most terrible nonsense! I was just there and lived a healthy, happy life, I realized there myself, my friend … Christ understood … Russian man to understand and feel that I myself Russian, I’m one of the Russian people. All my best ideas came to mind then, now they just come back, and that is not so clear. Oh, if you are sentenced to hard labor!

He smiled.

- Yes, of course … Well, think of something else. But, you know, because it would be your best …

On reading of Dostoevsky 9 March 1879 at the literary evening in favor of “Society needs writers and scholars”

From the memoirs of Dostoevsky “A year of working with the famous writer”

After intermission … first came on to the stage by Fyodor Dostoevsky. He … read a chapter from “The Brothers Karamazov” – “The Story of a secret,” but for many, including me, it was something of a revelation of the fate … It was a mystery, under the title: “The Last Judgment, or Life and m e p r e” … This was the anatomical dissection patient with gangrene of the body – opening ulcers and diseases of our blunted conscience, our junk, rotten, still feudal life … Layer after layer, canker sore for … pus, stench … fever lingering agony … death throes … And the refreshing, healing smile … and gentle, pain thirst words – strong, healthy bed of a dying creature. It was the talk of the old and the new Russia, the conversation Brothers Karamazov – Dmitri and Alyosha.

I could hear the sound of this reading two sentences, and everything was explained to me in Dostoevsky, and in ourselves. It seemed to me as if the students who were in the room, at first did not understand what he was reading them, and whispered:

- Maniakes! .. Simpleton! .. Strange. And the voice of Dostoevsky with the stress and anxiety covers this passionate whisper … 
- Let weird! even if only in the foolishness of! But they should not die a great idea!

And the soulful, passionate voice shook us to the depths of the heart … I’m not one – the audience was thrilled. I remember nervously twitched and sighed sitting beside me unfamiliar to me a young man, he blushed and turned pale, frantically shaking her head and squeezing her fingers, as if with difficulty keeping them from involuntary applause. And finally they thundered applause. And again … there was a mysterious conversation in a strange, is not “modern”, even “abnormal” theme.

Believe what the heart says! No collateral from heaven! -

said the one with the poisonous and passionate irony. And the other answered with the same passionate, frantic affection: “I do not want revenge! I just want to! .. “

We listened with growing excitement and trembling heart, too, wanted to “forgive”! Suddenly, everything in us miraculously changed suddenly we feel that not only do not need us to “wait a little,” but it can not delay for a minute … You can not, because every moment of our lives brings us to the eternal dusk or eternal light – to evangelical ideals or to the animals. A fixed-middle does not exist. There is no point in the world forever unchanging current, changing phenomena, where every moment is a derivative of the previous one – no stops for the thinking mind, there is no rest for the living heart. Or – “bloody nonsense” and a tarantula bite, or “take up his cross and follow me!”. Or “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness” – and then “do not kill”, “Thou shalt not steal,” “You shall not covet”! .. Or – go over the bodies crushed and tear a piece of someone else’s mouth, horseriding on others and spit on all sorts of covenants! And there is no middle, and the living is waiting.

He finished, this “crazy”, “cruel talent”, tormented us with their meal – and the thunder of applause again flew after him, as if in gratitude for the fact that it took us all of the “norm” that the ideals it suddenly became our ideals, and we thought his thoughts, his faith believed and wanted his desires …

And if it was only a momentary mood for some of his listeners – for others it was a coup for the whole life and served as a powerful impetus to the life-giving work of the self-consciousness, an inexhaustible source of faith in the divine origin of man and his destiny in the great world history. These students have the right to call Dostoevsky his great teacher, as it was written in one of his funeral wreath …

Dostoevsky accused now in feigned piety, in a hypocritical idealism. And … reading and listening to these accusations, I always remember a story that I heard from the venerable old lady, the widow of a priest, and often used by F. ‘M. Dostoevsky Znamenskaya church. Here are her actual words:

- He always for matins or to the early Mass at the church went. Previously, all used to come and go away after all. And it will always in the corner by the door, with the right column to not visible. And always on my knees and prayed with tears. The entire service, happened on lap time lost never rise again. We all knew it – Fyodor Dostoevsky, just pretend we do not know and do not notice it. Do not like to be noticed. Now turned away and leave …

on “Crime and Punishment.” Pushkin Speech 
From “Memoirs of Fyodor Dostoevsky”

… The impression made by the novel “Crime and Punishment”, was extraordinary. Just read it, and this in 1866, only about him, and said hunters to read, say, usually complaining about the overwhelming force of the novel, the heavy impression, from which people with healthy nerves almost got sick, and people with weak nerves were forced to leave the reading. But most striking was the incident with the concurrence of the novel with reality. At the same time that the book came out, “Russian Messenger” with the description of the crime of Raskolnikov, appeared in newspapers the news of such crimes that took place in Moscow. Some student killed and robbed a moneylender and, by all accounts, made it out of the nihilistic belief that all means are permissible to correct unreasonable situation. The murder was committed, I think, a couple of days or three before “Crime and Punishment” .. /

How … just started talking Fyodor, roused the hall and was still. Although he read from written, but it was not reading, and live it, simple, honest coming out of the soul. All listened to as if as long no one said anything about Pushkin. That animation and natural, which is different syllable Dostoevsky, it is passed on and his workshop reading. Do not say anything about the content of speech, but of course, it gave the main force this reading. Up to now hear over the huge crowd hushed sounds tense and full of feeling voice: “Be humble, proud man, to work, idle man!”

Enthusiasm, which broke out in the hall after the speech was neizobrazimy, incomprehensible to anyone who did not witness it. The crowd, long charge of enthusiasm and extend it to all that it seemed to easy, each sounding phrases, each loudly uttered verse, the crowd suddenly saw a man who himself was all full of enthusiasm, when she heard the word, is certainly worthy of admiration, and she choked with emotion, she rushed with all my soul in admiration and awe. We immediately began to kiss Dostoevsky, several people, against the rules, made his way out of the room to the stage, a young man, it is said, when reached by Fyodor Mikhailovich, fainted. … “You said it – turned to Dostoevsky Aksakov -, followed by Ivan Turgenev, a representative of the Westerners, and I, who is considered a representative of the Slavophiles alike must express my greatest sympathy and gratitude.” At the end of the meeting … on the stage suddenly a group of ladies, they brought a huge wreath Dostoevsky.Begged him to ascend the pulpit, behind him, as a frame for the head, holding a wreath, and prolonged applause throughout the hall. Thus, Dostoevsky was honoring the hero of the day. Everyone feel happy, all seem to have been grateful for the fact that he allowed, finally, weary waiting, gave all the holiday content and color. … This day, the last day of celebrations, ended literary-musical evening, on which Dostoevsky read some poems by Pushkin. All had significant reading of the poem “The Prophet.” Dostrevsky read it twice, and each time with such intense enthusiasm that was creepy to hear.Victory …, I thought, went Fyodor in all fairness, because this whole crowd of course he most loved Pushkin …

HISTORY OF RUSSIAN PHILOSOPHY

The main form of creativity … in this ie, after the prison was a period of literary creation. Starting with a first-class product, “Crime and Punishment,” Dostoevsky writes novels one after the other – “Idiot”, “teenager”, “Possessed” and finally, “The Brothers Karamazov.” It is now known to very broad and philosophical ideas of the first major works – and a careful analysis of different editions of their shows as much invested in Dostoevsky his artistic creativity. Many times mentioned that by “empirical” tissue in all these works there is a plan, which, after Vyacheslav Ivanov, often referred to as “metaphysical.” Indeed, in the main “heroes” by Dostoevsky in front of us, not only alive, specific identity, but its fate in the inner logo and its dialectic of Dostoevsky traces the logic of an idea.Philosophical, ideological creativity of Dostoevsky sought its expression in art – and the power of his artistic talent in that and say that he should be in the empirical illustration chistohudozhestvennomu instinct and are not adjusted to fit your artistic ideas as we are constantly, for example, we find in Tolstoy …

The basis of all intellectual life, all search and builds Dostoevsky had his religious quest. Dostoevsky remained a lifelong religious nature, all life “tormented”, as he puts it, the thought of God.Therefore, in the face of Dostoevsky’s more than anyone else in the face, we are dealing with philosophical works, grows in the womb of the religious consciousness. But all of the exceptional importance of the ideological Dostoevsky was just in the fact that it with tremendous power and unequaled depth reveals the religious perspective in the themes of anthropology, ethics, aesthetics, philosophy of history. It is in recognition of these problems from the point of view of religion and involved what he was saying that he was “tormented by God …” Dostoevsky was never any doubt the existence of God, but always got up in front of him and at different times in different ways to decide the question that follows from the existence of God to the world, for man and his historical deystvovanyya …Man as he actually is, its activities and quests can be a religiously justified and understood? Evil in man, the evil in history, miroeye suffering can it be justified by religious and accepted? If anything, everything is possible, it is considered as different expressions problem of theodicy “the justification of God.” - TK …

Dostoevsky’s philosophy has not one, but several starting points, but the most important, and even decisive for him was the theme of a man … Berdyaev quite right in asserting that “Dostoevsky anthropology differs from anthropology svyatooteche-tion.” Not only a sin, wickedness, selfishness, all the “demonic” element in man opened Dostoevsky with unprecedented force, but no less deeply revealed movement of truth and goodness in the human heart, “angelic” started it. That’s the power and importance of anthropological antinomy anatomy – “protivopolaganie.” - TK Dostoevsky, both the antinomy given him in its highest form … But the categorical this ontological essential underlying existence. - TK exaltation of man, the ruthless Dostoevsky reveals a fatal disorder of the human spirit, his dark movement. The main mystery of man lies in the fact, according to Dostoevsky, that he is being ethical, it is always and irresistibly always a dilemma between good and evil, from which it can not go anywhere, whoever does not take the path of good, he must be taking the path of evil . This ethical nature of man, his main focus is not ethical preconceived idea of Dostoevsky, and the conclusion from his observations of people …. The path to goodness is not determined by one of freedom, and he, of course, is irrational, but only in the sense that the mind is not motivated to do good, and the will, the power of the spirit. That is why in freedom, as such, separated from the living movement of love, and there is a seed of death. Why death? Because man can not substantially deviate from the good – and if, being given free play of passions, he departs from the good, then he begins a painful disease of the soul. Raskolnikov, Stavrogin, Ivan Karamazov in different ways, but all suffer from the fact that stifle the lively sense of good ie God, which were themselves. Liberty, if it leaves us with ourselves, reveals only chaos in the soul, reveals the dark and lower movement, that is turning us into slaves of passion, makes painfully suffer …

Faith in man in Dostoevsky does not rest on a sentimental glorification of man – it is, on the contrary, it is triumphant when immersed in the darkest of motion of the human soul.

Vyacheslav. Ivanov 
Dostoevsky and Roma TRAGEDY

The horror … the agonizing compassion powerfully lifts us from the depths of the soul cruel for the tip to the last tragic muse Dostoevsky, but the purification leads us always, capturing the authenticity of this his artistic actions – no matter how we take “cleansing” – a concept, the contents of which so much controversy, but which nevertheless familiar from direct experience for us all. It is familiar to us, if at least once in your life, we returned home, after some solemn cathedral and shocks with a clear, blue as fertile after thunderstorms swept, the knowledge that is not in vain just poured out of our eyes, a flood of tears, and all the wounded, frantically sank our heart – not in vain because we did something unforgettable event that we are now in something different and life for us something ever out to be different, and that some subtle, but bless the statement of meaning and value, if not the world and God, man and his rush zateplilos star in our own, from something sacrificially impeached and the already refined, something Priya and in the throes of conceiving, but this rich and justified soul. So much creativity, so preobrazitelno katartiche-parameter ochischayuschee. - TK facilitate and strengthen what Dostoevsky endows the soul that has passed him through hell and purgatory ordeal to the threshold of the abodes of Beatrice, that we all have long come to terms with our severe counselor and murmur over the hard way …

Since the formula of Dostoevsky also stage essentially all the interior to be found in action, he inevitably comes to the need to implement the antinomy of the underlying tragedy – in antinomian action, it is in the world of gods and heroes, which dealt Antique tragedy okabolsheyu part, and in the human world and the social order is always and inevitably – a crime. Disaster-crime our poet must, by law, the creativity, explain and determine in three ways: first, from the metaphysical antinomies personal will to be seen as God and the devil are fighting in the hearts of people.; Secondly, psychological pragmatism, t . is, of communication and of the peripheral states of consciousness, from the chain of emotions, from excitement swell, leading to a decisive thrust, the latter affect, required for the crime, and thirdly, finally, from the pragmatism of external events, from their spider plexus forming the thinnest, but little by little, which gets unbreakable fabric of everyday terms, the logic of which inevitably leads to crime. Add that this triple explanation of human destiny is reflected also in terms of public, so that the very metaphysics of personal will is organically connected with metaphysics will cathedral or multiple will host theomachy whole legions … For Dostoevsky, the way of faith and the path of unbelief – two different being subject to each individual his inner law, the two being heteronomous, or different-laws. And this dual pattern makes two parallel rows of correlative effects in a person’s life and in history. For the whole period of history and generations of people, according to Dostoevsky, metaphysically define themselves in God or against God, in faith or unbelief, and hence the community is in the wrong, guilt and retribution, and the Babylonian pillar continues to be built, because the language is not the mixture as it was prophesied epilogue of “Crime and Punishment”, due to the inability to agree a closure of each inner experience and insight, the way the interpenetration of souls in love ceases completely. In all that seemed to Dostoevsky not conciliar unity of souls who have agreed to act in the name of God, or on the basis of faith in God, but the mechanical subcontractors personalities otedinennyh internally from one another in disbelief common bond supra-religious reality – individuals, only the conditions in the name of Each self and to the mutual benefit to work together to realize their human, while still being able to unite them into one force ideal – Dostoevsky consistently and ruthlessly condemned as demonic claim to settle on the ground without God, the image of the metaphysical foundations bogobor-properties of complicity godless rebellion devoted to the novel “Demons” …

We see that the idea of guilt and retribution, the central idea of the tragedy, there is the central idea of Dostoevsky, all the work which, after Siberia, art seems to be one opening and one religious confession of a thought of a single man and mankind’s dilemma: whether to be, that is . to God, or not to be, that is, imagine yourself existent – without God.

THREE SPEECH IN MEMORY DOSTOEVSKIY

Positive … the social ideal was not completely clear mind Dostoevsky returned from Siberia. But three of the truth in this case were very clear to him: he realized first of all, that individuals, even the best people have no right to force the company in the name of sv’oego personal excellence, he also realized that the public really did not make up the individual minds, and is rooted in a national sense, and, finally, he realized that truth matters religious and must be associated with the faith of Christ, the ideal of Christ … This central idea, which served as Dostoevsky in all its activities, was the Christian idea of a free universal human unity, of universal brotherhood in Christ’s name … The final condition of true vsechelo-Humanity is freedom. But where is the guarantee that people are free to come to the union, and not disperse in all directions, clashing and destroying each other, like what we see? Guarantee one thing: the infinity of the human soul, which does not allow a person to stop and settle down for good on something partial, shallow and incomplete, and forces him to seek and find a full life of all mankind, universal and global affairs. Belief in this infinity of the human soul is given Christianity. Of all religions, Christianity is one near perfect God makes perfect man in whom the fullness of deity dwells bodily. And if the full reality of infinite human soul was made in Christ, then the possibility of a spark of infinity and completeness exists in every human soul, even at a very low level of incidence, and it showed us Dostoevsky in their favorite type of …

While the dark foundation of our nature, evil in its exceptional selfishness and crazy in their efforts to implement this selfishness, all attributed to him and all define themselves – until this dark base we have there – is not addressed – and that original sin is not broken, as then it is impossible for us to present the case and no matter what do not have a reasonable sense. Imagine a crowd of people, the blind, the deaf, the crippled, the possessed, and suddenly out of the crowd heard the question: what to do? The only reasonable answer is: look for healing, until you are healed, you do not care, as long as you give yourself a healthy, for us there is no cure.

A man who in his moral malaise at its fury and madness bases its right to act and to remake the world in their own way, such a person, whatever his fate and external affairs, by its very nature is a murderer, and he is bound to rape and kill others and himself inevitably die from violence. - He thinks he’s strong, but he’s at the mercy of foreign powers, and he is proud of his freedom, but he is a slave and appearance of randomness. Such a person is not healed until we make the first step to recovery. The first step to salvation for us – to feel powerless and its captivity who quite feel it, that there will be no murderer, but if it stops on the feeling of powerlessness and his captivity, he comes to suicide.

religious themes DOSTOEVSKIY

In Dostoevsky’s work is internal unity. The same theme was worried and took his life. Dostoevsky believed and called himself a realist – “a realist in the highest sense.” Inaccurate to call him a psychologist. And incorrect to explain his work from his spiritual experience, of his experiences. Dostoevsky described and portrayed not spiritual, but the spiritual reality. He portrayed the primary reality of the human spirit, its chthonic depths in which the devil is struggling with God, in which man’s destiny is decided … His soul is the entire experience of being opened. Dostoevsky was a pain to observant. He was interested in all the excitement going on. He suffered more curiosity than a disregard for life. It was not mere curiosity, but a metaphysical curiosity. Dostoevsky was a spectator, not a visionary. And he was given to see the primordial mystery of empirical events. He saw something that told me – he was describing what he saw. This is the basis of his realism. His work is not an interpretation, but the image of human destiny.

Very early Dostoevsky revealed mysterious antinomy of human freedom. On the one hand, the whole meaning of life he saw in her freedom – and that in its volitional freedom, creativity and self-determination samoizbranii. Nothing can be realized only through a strong-willed determination and election. Why Dostoevsky defended not only the identity, but it is “self-will” of man. Even humility and obedience is possible only through “self-will” – or they have no value. But on the other hand, no one more powerful and persuasive than Dostoevsky, not portrayed a self-destructive of freedom. This is – one of the most intimate topics of his work. In the name of “self-will” or freedom Dostoevsky opposes “omnitude” against any objective coercion justified only compulsion and necessity. At the same time it shows how Protestant becomes “underground man” – and begins the mystical decomposition, disintegration of personality. Lonely freedom turns obsession. Stubborn protest permitted inside captivity. Moreover, freedom becomes coercion and violence. ”The black man” is at once a rapist and obsessive. Free to be dangerous. But even more dangerous to be imprisoned. For Dostoevsky very significant that he did not so much sentimental regrets moralistically or downtrodden and oppressed, how many shows metaphysical danger of oppression for the oppressors. Who encroach on freedom and human life, he’s lost. Raskolnikov is the secret, this mystery of the “Napoleon.” Proves hopeless contradiction. Freedom must be intrinsically limited. Otherwise it turns into its negation. Dostoevsky sees and portrays this mysterious collapse of a self-sufficient boldness, audacity to degenerate and even mystical mischief. And shows how to let freedom makes a person a slave to passion or idea.

Antinomy of human freedom is allowed only in love. But because love can only be free. Unfree love degenerates into a passion, is the beginning of slavery and violence – and for a loved one, and for love. Again, Dostoevsky portrays with uncanny insight and antikomicheskuyu this tragic dialectic of love – not just love of a woman, but the love of neighbor. Dostoevsky’s Grand Inquisitor is prezh-.First of all a victim of love, not free love of neighbor, love of the lack of freedom and love through bondage. Such love burns, burns and inflammation of the heart burns imaginary favorite – kills their deception. True love is only in freedom, just as the love of human freedom. It opens inextricable link love through freedom and freedom through love. This was the secret of Dostoevsky catholicity, a secret brotherhood, the mystery of the Church – the Church as a brotherhood and love in Christ.

Tezisno PLAN WORKS

1. Petersburg of Dostoevsky Berdyaev. Philosophy of Dostoevsky.

“Dostoevsky’s nothing but human nature is not, there is no world of things, not in man that ties him to the natural world, the world of things with life, with the objective order of life. There is only the human spirit, and only he is interesting, he investigated. Strakhov, who knew Dostoevsky, says of him: “All his attention was directed to the people, and he grasped only by their nature and character. He was interested in people, only people with their temperament, and their way of life, their feelings and thoughts. “ During a trip abroad Dostoevsky “Dostoevsky took particular neither nature nor historical monuments or works of art.” True, there is a city of Dostoevsky, is urban slums, dirty and smelly pubs furnished rooms. But the city is only a human atmosphere, but a moment of the tragic fate of a person, the city is permeated with a man, but has no independent existence, it is only a background person. Sailed by nature, isolated from the organic roots, hit the ugly urban slums where writhes in agony. City – a tragic fate. City of St. Petersburg, which felt so amazing and described Dostoevsky, a phantom generated by man in his apostasy and wandering. In the atmosphere of this ghost town mists are generated insane thoughts, ideas ripen crimes of which transgress the limits of human nature. All concentrated and thickened around a man alienated from the fundamental principles of the divine.All external – the city and its special atmosphere, rooms and an ugly situation, taverns with their stench and dirt outside of the plot of the novel – this is only the signs, symbols, inner, spiritual man of the world, only the internal display of human destiny. Nothing external, natural or social, consumer has to Dostoevsky independent reality. Dirty restaurants, in which the “Russian boys” are talking about world affairs, a symbolic indication of the moments of the human spirit and the dialectic of ideas organically from this fate eroshennoy. And the complexity of the plot, all household multiplicity of actors facing a passionate attraction or repulsion, in a whirlwind of emotions, there is only a single fate mapping of the human spirit in the inner depth. All of this revolves around the mystery of a man, all that is needed to detect internal moments of his destiny. “

2. A man and “Superman” by Dostoyevsky’s “Crime and Punishment” Berdyaev. Philosophy of Dostoevsky. ”Dostoevsky’s work is not just the crisis and the collapse of humanity, exposing its interior.This Dostoevsky’s name to be placed next to the name of Nietzsche. After Dostoevsky and Nietzsche can not have a return to the old rationalistic humanism, humanity surpassed. Humanistic self-assertion and self-righteousness of man finds its end in Dostoevsky and Nietzsche. Next is the way or the God-man or superman, man-god. At one stop a human can not be … Nietzsche wants to overcome the man as shame, and goes to the superman. Superman is not stored in a man, he is overcome as shame as impotence and insignificance. Man is only a means to the phenomenon of the superman.Superman is an idol, the idol before whom prostrate man who eats him and all human. For the knowing temptation Superman can no longer be tempted humanism. Humanism is the middle kingdom.European humanism spiritually ended in Nietzsche, who was flesh and blood of humanity and sacrifice for his sins. But before Nietzsche in his brilliant dialectic of man Dostoevsky revealed that fatal and inevitable end of humanism, this death of a person in the way of man-. There is a huge difference between Dostoevsky and Nietzsche. Dostoevsky knew the temptation of man-he deeply studied the path of human self-will. But he knew more, saw the light of Christ, in which the darkness of man-incriminating. He was spiritually sighted. Nietzsche himself was in the power of the ideas of man-and the idea of superman destroyed his rights. Dostoevsky to the end saved people. In the man-a man dies, and the God-man remains man. Only Christianity rescues the idea of man, forever preserving the image of man. Human existence presupposes the existence of God. Kill God is murder. On the grave of the two great ideas – God and man Christianity – Religion and God-Incarnation rebels image monster slaying of God and man, the image of the man of the future, a superman, the Antichrist.

Nietzsche neither God nor man, but only unknown superman. Dostoevsky is both God and man. God he never absorbs man, man persists in God, man remains until the end and forever and ever. In that Dostoevsky was a Christian in the deepest sense of the word “”

3. tangible world of the novel “Crime and Punishment” G. Meyer. light at night. ”When Dostoevsky focuses all his attention on things, houses and apartments, carefully and accurately reflecting their nature, be aware of the slightest detail in the description, so he has the rare and scanty. Sony home Dostoevsky describes in detail because it is not only a snapshot of its sinfulness, its distorted existence and mental suffering, but also the soul of Raskolnikov’s fate is now in the hands of Sonin. Rightly said in Berdyaev that women in Dostoevsky not have their own destiny, but the destiny of men define themselves and in it, I note from myself, as if dissolved.

Dostoevsky describes the room sony … What grief, what a desolation! And the chest, as if standing on the brink of oblivion near awful acute angle, running away somewhere deep! It seems, that one step further and get into the world of supernatural shadows; otshatnis ago and found himself in another outrageously obtuse angle, in his despair, reflecting Sonya soul stalled. But, where Sonya and Raskolnikov there – he also does not exit. Sonia led in that gray house her sinful sacrifice. Such sacrifice inevitably produces a meeting with Sonia criminal pride, with the support of dark arrogance – Raskolnikov.

Plunging into the depths of all things, the terms and conditions, you begin to comprehend something quite striking, Cartesian inaccessible to reason: the fact that Sonia lives in a gray corner, and there it is metaphysically held long before the reality of the meeting with Raskolnikov. After settling here, Sonia thus entered into the soul of the ideological killers and will forever remain in it. Sonya’s room – it will be reflected outside the soul of Raskolnikov. Another part of his shattered soul is to the right side of the door is always locked up tight. Table and bed Sonia stood against the wall close to the door. Apartment located behind the wall of some of Madame Gertrude Rössle Karlovna, very respectable pimp. Room of the apartment, located directly behind the wall Sonya remained generally non-residential … I already said that, living in his room, Sonia thus lived in the soul of Raskolnikov long before his personal acquaintance with him. That’s why it sounds so simple is not easy and not the usual promise Raskolnikov said Sonia, who killed Lizaveta. According to Raskolnikov, he then chose Sonia to tell her that, when it is not killed Lizaveta, and Sony itself does not know, and had only heard about her drunken story Marmeladova. Dostoevsky discovered new worlds and new, unexplored by any laws of life. Attaching us to these worlds and laws, he shows that all were to become reality to happen has already happened in the depths of our soul, with the assistance of our own inner will, and that our aspirations, dreams and desires, unknown to our consciousness, taking different forms and shapes, materialize in the world of phenomena. Thus, both directly and indirectly, the idea of the great Dostoevsky says Origen, “the matter is compacted by human sin spirituality ‘…

Sony separate room tightly closed door of an empty room, where, on bringing a precaution, a chair to sit and listen to the conversation Svidrigailov Raskolnikov to Sonia. Mission Sony, over her this – save Raskolnikov from spiritual death, destiny Svidrigailov adopt ideological killer in impenitence. If the room does have a Sony tread materialized out the soul of Raskolnikov, it becomes understandable why, listening Marmeladova, he “knows unconsciously” who will kill and who will confess to the murder. If an empty room in a brothel Rössle is a symbol of metaphysical emptiness long ideological soul has mastered the killer, you can feel the spirit, why at the first date of Svidrigailov with Raskolnikov both immediately and in fact know each other. Svidrigailov to Raskolnikov, “it is the same and there”, and Raskolnikov’s worth it, just waking up from a bad dream, to see into the room a strange gentleman to immediately recognize him Svidrigailov, and closed his eyes again, to pretend to be asleep out of a desire to delay for one second fateful meeting “.

4. system images in Dostoevsky’s novel “Crime and Punishment” J. Ann. Dostoevsky artistic ideology. ”After much trial and abandoned started … thought, finally chose a two gyrus, which is now … and takes its motion … According to one gyrus – let’s say, a black – used sent the idea that the meaning of x and z, and n, it is true only in suffering. Another – red – have chosen to itself the idea that people, on the contrary, has the right to demand … what? Yes all – happiness, pleasure, power, and require at least then, to all of this then do not care. Extreme points on the black curve is the painter and Mikolka Marfa Petrovna Svidrigailov, and the red limit Luzhin and Raskolnikov … Malaria is the ultimate symbol of suffering: it is not only the same, but each other and cover the two ideas: Suffering and the Truth. Cheerful boy in a collision with a brute force that threatens to sue him, decides to take the pain. So did the best and superior beings, and in this, that is, in its decision, the particle lies something irresistible-strong and light to a dazzling brightness. That’s something, and takes it, happy. Without heroism, without sacrifice, without love, almost natural gravitation, burning-tangible heritage of long shifts martyrs – to define this initial node, tangled in one truth with the court, the court with the misery and suffering with buying something-One, Bright, otherworldly and unconditional. Female painter matched to the character – there Lizaveta. Deepest … turn in the novel. - Symbol Sonia Marmeladov. It is not only gentle and not a victim, and do not think it’s about suffering, or the crown, or of God.Sonia heart so holistically given torment others, as she sees them, and foresees, and compassion it so yea, eager that their own flour and humiliation can not but she’s only detail – place them more in the heart is not. Sonia goes for her father in the flesh and the spirit of a child – the old marmalade. And it’s harder to Sonia thought, for receiving a sacrifice, he also accepts, and suffering. He – too soft, but not shadowing with meekness and gentleness fall and sin. He – one of those people for whom it is and let himself be crucified Christ, is not a martyr or a victim, it may even be a monster, not selfish – the main thing is, he does not grumble, however, he was pleased to reproach. And love, love is ashamed of her, and for that she, love, experiencing Marmeladova in squalid and hereafter its offering of … Gyrus where one meets another … our thought lingers on the symbol Avdotya Romanovna Raskolnikov … Dunech-ki and just sacrifice, self-denial, but their arrogance. Dounia and suffering will not merge with those causing suffering, “smiling”, as Svidrigailov. … Marfa Petrovna Svidrigailov also accepts life only under the sign of martyrdom, under the guise of suffering. Out of life … even more than you can digest, and at the same time feel a martyr and the needy – that’s Marfa Petrovna’s the meaning of life. And ghostly suffering she crossed her with the pleasure of the flesh in the rough as indissoluble knot, like a painter of his meal, and perfect spiritual flesh. For Dostoevsky Marfa Petrovna was a symbol of suffering, in which there is no God, and this idea as it was brought into the sphere of high comedy.Marfa Petrovna point connected … of her husband Arkady Ivanovich Svidrigailov. A man without any vulgarity, on the contrary – fantastic – he might be more of the novel, is the pure idea … Svidrigailov sick uselessness of his experience. It’s cold, hardy, inquisitive and charming … No thing is that Svidrigailov would disdain, before the devil is cold and clever, but there is no such that he would not have despised since their own lives … Up from Svidrigailov are idealistic characters demanding happiness, all theories, chimeras or fancy; down a rebuke from him all the ideas of happiness, up to a bright, eye beating reproachfully come true vulgarity … Up there … a sad ghost Pulcheria Alexandrovna Raskolnikov. Here morbid belief in the promised union of truth and happiness, even here Luzhin be fine, if not, all the same, though not to spoil the picture … Down from Svidrigailov she meets another, too – illyuzionerka happiness, but not to bless and not overshadowing … If the Pulcheria Raskolnikov reflected quiet, aspirations, manic idea of happiness, in Catherine Ivanovna same crazy idea sticks out his tongue and tossed … The next step was formed character Razumikhin … Another step – and the idea of happiness as a justification, already built into the theory, too manic, but criminal and sacrilegious, and that in fact his dogma, and drag her convicted charming boy, gentle, strong and even clever … But worst of all is the following. It turns out that from Luzhin, if not to the Raskolnikov, then, in any case, before his “Napoleon”, little thoughts to something of it – in fact, at hand … That’s, of course, is the foundation of hatred between Luzhin and Raskolnikov. Not that they’re very, very would interfere with each other, much resemblance something too “that”: that is, they look so ugly and so insulting caricatures of one another, that even cry. “

5. the identity and the self by Dostoyevsky’s “Crime and Punishment” TA Kasatkina. the identity and the self. ”Once I heard:” You are talking about the need to overcome their “self”, but that Dostoevsky insisted on the highest development of the individual. “ And the first time I realized that there really is for many more such indivisibility, vagueness of concepts, such confusion “person” and “self” … The Self – from the “self”, “most” – first, asserts its independence in the sense of self-substantiation, and individual and, secondly, the advantage the most-most-most. Especially the self and not be infringed in the team – in fact there is quite possible even just there and you can to preserve its circumscribed and excellence, for these qualities do not require exclusivity, on the contrary, they suggest just the “inclusiveness”: to be “the most -most “, you need others to be like you, but only worse. That is, needs a common basis for comparison, included in the total number. Self is nowhere zatoskuet because she has a place where it is located, – the center of the universe, and certainly it is something the universe will try to make it revolve around this center … The person face, face, face just has exclusivity. Actually, the person – this is exceptional in man, that is peculiar to him alone. We know about the vulnerability of the person, of the vulnerability of otherness. But this is just evidence that there is no demarcation. Weak spot – a place unprotected, open, place no limits, input, pass. The personality of man – that suffers most from loneliness. And it’s obvious – it was as long as the quality repeatable, people can be self-sufficient and interchangeable!. That person breaks the illusion of interoperability, but it also misses, requiring inclusion, pointing to the need for community precisely because of its exclusivity – because this anywhere else is not!. But again the question of inclusion – where? If true alternative: group – separate existence, if there is no third, the person in all of us doomed to suffering, and most importantly, to the consciousness of his unworthiness, uselessness. Because the person is in contrast to the triumphant self can not find any justification in itself, nor in the “unifying idea”. And the absolute value of the individual can not be established on the basis of one or another. For in the first case it is – a unique, but only a fragment - and inevitably doomed to destruction, and in the second case it altogether – extra, optional you can leave if you do not interfere with the “unifying idea”, but if you suddenly hurt …. .

But the alternative is untrue. There is a third possibility – the possibility of the universal, all-ohvatnosti when the value of the absolute value does not receive the “I”, not “society”, but “the world”, and always – “the whole world.” Personality is what comes as a unique part of the totality of the world. Identity – that is, the uniqueness of each – that without which you can not place this integrity. This is not a buffet without which the whole world. That is not the whole world, and the world will be defective, deprived of any of its parts. And since all the parts – are unique, not interchangeable, then the world will be crippled forever. Only then set the absolute value of the individual. And only in the inclusion in the whole personality is good – because it is in its place. And it prevents the inclusion of the self, causing occupy not the only thing you peculiar place, and the most-most, forcing to join the fight so, with what a person looks for a love union. Made to feel indispensable part of integrity, where eachpart is indispensable, but the runner on the track at the end of a pedestal – and only three seats, and the rest will be left out. “

For the curious

1. In “Speech on Dostoevsky” An Innocent-nensky lists a number of characters of Dostoevsky, without naming them. What is the name of the character and work. ”This is a small official, uneducated, poor, and everyone think he’ll so warmly and sincerely love close, so delicately, gently helping him, so quiet and modest sacrifice your peace and comfort. Here are drunken, wayward, low morally fallen captain, who can, however, deeply love their burden – a family can grieve inconsolably over the grave of a young son and a proud moment of enlightenment to speak the voice of human dignity … He draws, for example, a young man who set out to acquire money, to work, to save, to become rich, and then enjoy the consciousness of power over the masses of people. He wants to be a cold, calculating, relentless, and suddenly throws his fate in the hands of a small defenseless creature. And, contrary to the intent of contrived, by giving the child. Their savings, and care, and all the tenderness awakened young heart … Here’s image of a girl who throws his favorite circle of scientists, the capital and patiently courting legless sister, drunken father and crazy mother. Here’s another girl who has compassion for the people comes to a complete self-abandonment. Loving one person, it hides and smothers his feelings to his influence and love to elevate, ennoble another, almost criminal rights. Here’s a girl who falls completely low in the hearts a deep love for his family and the poor paying the heavy price of its existence … Here is one of his character – a boy-monk, is the personification of honesty, truth, older look at him with respect and some fear, as the Prophet, a man who simply does not know how to lie or to others, or to himself and with quiet conviction says that it seems true and fair. That’s his brother, a man irresistible impulse, capable humiliate, offend, even kill – but it’s very sincere, he never lies and is not drawn, and it makes us love it. Here’s another person, a person is terminally ill, epileptic, completely abandoned: he was so honest and alien falsehood being called an idiot, as a child, the idiot stranger to insincerity, and good, and simple to the point that it is easy to deceive and to put in fool of. “

2. Name the character of “Crime and Punishment”, to which the description: “By the way, it was a remarkably handsome, with beautiful dark eyes, dark Russian, taller than average, thin and slender.”

“It was a tiny, dry old woman of sixty, with sharp and angry eyes and a small nose and eyes open bareheaded. Blond little grizzled hair was thickly smeared with oil. On its thin and long neck, like a chicken leg, was knotted some sort of flannel rag … “

“He was a man over fifty, of average height and solid build, with gray hair and a large bald head, a swollen from the constant drinking yellow, even greenish face and swollen eyelids because of which sparkled tiny as slits, but animated by reddish eyes . But there was something in it is very strange, in his eyes glowed as if even admiration – perhaps, was the meaning and mind – but at the same time flashed as if madness. “

“It was terribly emaciated woman, slim, quite tall and slim, yet with beautiful dark brown hair and really with flushed cheeks to stain. She paced back and forth in his small room, clutching his arms, with parched lips and uneven, ragged breathing. “

“The older girl, nine, vysokenkaya and thin like a match in a single thin and tattered shirt and everywhere thrown over bare shoulders dilapidated dradedamovom burnusike, sew it, probably, two years ago, because it did not reach to the knees, and now stood in the corner beside the little brother, his arms wrapped around his neck is longer, wizened hand like a match. “

“She was a fun-loving, and when rassmeshat, laughed quietly, swaying and shaking all over, until that too became very sick.”

“It was a tall, awkward and shy girl docile, almost an idiot, thirty-five, who was in full bondage to his sister.”

“The other lady, very full and purple-red, with spots, visible woman, and something so very richly dressed, with a brooch on the chest, the size of a saucer …”

“It was a very young man, about twenty-two, with a swarthy complexion and a movable, seemed old for his years, and dressed in the fashion fop, parted on the back of his head and brushed raspomazhenny, with many rings and rings on white otchischennyh brushes fingers and gold chains on the vest. “

“Now it has been modest, and even poorly dressed girl, still very young, almost like a little girl, with a modest and decent manner, with a clear, but seemed somewhat frightened face.”

Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov, Alyona Ivanovna, Simon Z. marmalade, Katerina Ivanovna, Fields, Nastasia, Lizaveta, Louisa Ivanovna noticed Sonia.

3. Name the character from “Crime and Punishment”, who said: “I am to say that your perfect recovery, in the main, now depends only on you. Now, when you’re available to talk, I would like to convince you that it is necessary to remove the original, so to say, the root causes that influenced the birth of your disease state and then cured, not what will be even worse. “

“Well, yes you want, I’ll bring out, you had white eyelashes only because only that Ivan the Great thirty-five fathoms high, and bring out clearly, exactly, progressively, and even with a liberal touch? “

“Yes, I really louse, and certainly for the reason that, first, now argue about the fact that I am a louse, because, secondly, that the whole month Commonweal Providence bother calling a witness, that is not for their own, say, the flesh and the lust to take, and mean a great and pleasant goal – ha-ha! “

“And the only weapon you have noticed, Rodion Romanovich, that we have, that we have in Russia-with, and most of all in our Petersburg circles, if two clever man, not yet too familiar with each other, but, so to speak, mutually each other Dear, this is how we are now about you, sir, come together, then half an hour can not find a topic of conversation – numb to each other, sit and mutually embarrassed. “

“Young people, I read your face like some grief. How came in, I read it, and so at once and turned to you. For telling you the story of my life, not to disgrace himself put prazdnolyub want before these particles, which are already known to all, and a sensitive and educated man looking for. “

“Ghosts – that is to say, scraps and fragments of other worlds, their start. Healthy person, of course, they do not need to see, because a healthy person is the most earthly man, and, therefore, has to live with one of life here for completeness and for the order. “
