Братья Карамазовы

"The Brothers Karamazov" is the final work of Fyodor Dostoevsky, in which many ideas of his work were artistically embodied. The history of the Karamazovs, as the author wrote, is not just a family chronicle, but a typified and generalized "image of our modern reality, our modern intellectual Russia." Philosophy and psychology of "crime and punishment", the dilemma of "socialism and Christianity", the eternal struggle between "God" and "devil" in the souls of people, the theme of "fathers and children" traditional for classical Russian literature - such is the problematic of the novel. In "The Brothers Karamazov" a criminal offense is connected with the great world "questions" and eternal artistic and philosophical themes.
