Through writing “The Grand Inquisitor” and “The Brothers Karamazov”, Dostoevsky uncovered profound psychological insights that seem unfathomable to most. Dostoevsky introduced developments in thought such as existentialism and psychoanalysis, in which soon overcame the twentieth century. This writer’s somewhat troubled childhood allowed him to portray deep sympathy with those who are emotionally and spiritually oppressed and embody the traditional Christian conflict between the body and spirit. You can see many of Dostoevsky’s personality traits shine through his infamous characters which helps you appreciate his philosophy better. The man was clearly a genius.
'Til next time,
