Translation)” is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed

The Idiot is a novel written by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. It was first published
serially in The Russian Messenger between 1868 and 1869. In The Idiot
Dostoevsky hoped to portray the ideal of a man who wishes to sacrifice himself
for others. Prince Myshkin is a sort of Russian Christ who represents the
values Dostoevsky deemed the highest and most noble: altruism, meekness,
kindness, and brotherly love. As Dostoevsky saw sexual passion as inherently
selfish, it is not surprising that Prince Myshkin is a completely asexual
character. Though he develops romantic feelings toward Aglaya, he subordinates
them to a higher ideal of pity and compassion that he expresses in his
relationship with Nastassya Filippovna. Facing the "dark world" of corruption
and moral decay that he meets in society, he inevitably perishes.

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. The
Idiot is ranked beside some of Dostoyevsky's other works as one of the most
brilliant literary achievements of the "Golden Age" of Russian literature.
