Crime and Punishment is a novel by Fyodor Dostoyevsky, first published in
1866. It is the second of Dostoyevsky's full-length novels following his
return from ten years of exile in Siberia.
Crime and Punishment focuses on the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of
Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student in St. Petersburg who
formulates and executes a plan to kill an unscrupulous pawnbroker for her
cash. Raskolnikov argues that with the pawnbroker's money he can perform good
deeds to counterbalance the crime, while ridding the world of a worthless
vermin. He also commits this murder to test his own hypothesis that some
people are naturally capable of such things, and even have the right to do
them. Several times throughout the novel, Raskolnikov justifies his actions by
connecting himself mentally with Napoleon Bonaparte, believing that murder is
permissible in pursuit of a higher purpose.

Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky (1821 – 1881) was a Russian novelist, short
story writer, essayist and philosopher. Dostoyevsky's literary works explore
human psychology in the context of the troubled political, social, and
spiritual atmosphere of 19th-century Russia. Many literary critics rate him as
one of the greatest and most prominent psychologists in world literature.
