The Relation between Dostoevsky and the Characters of The Brothers Kara

The Relation between Dostoevsky and the Characters ofThe Brothers KaramazovId die happy if I could bring to an end this final legend, for I would expect expressed myself completely. This statement from the author of The Brothers Karamazov helps reform the underlying purpose and theme of iodin of the greatest masterpieces of world literature. Superficially, the novel deals with a horrifying parricide and how the supporting characters devised direct and indirect circumstances starring(p) to the murder. Yet, the book delves deep into the human psyche and the soul--notably that of the author himself. The novel, as inferred from the same personal statement, may best be described as an annals of Dostoevsky filled with his beliefs, values, theories, and insights on a bestial world. Through the main characters-Ivan, Alyosha, Dmitri, yield Zosima, and Smerdyakov-- oneness can perceive the different sides of Dostoevsky himself, good and evil. Not only does one see his characteristics through the protagonists and antagonists of the novel, and also his beliefs concerning life, religion, and love. Among his personal beliefs integrated with his delusive characters include faith in love over faith in miracles, the importance of wo(e) as a means of salvation, and the importance of the Russian folk and children in the coming 20th century. But despite Dostoevskys grand presence in his masterpiece, one variable inevitably affects all of his characters as well as the entire living world--death. Thus, through the novel, he introduces us into his tormented mind and soul, hoping to influence future generations in his beliefs of a advance mankind, unafraid of the spectre of death that will crush the cowardly but unharm the s... ... see the soul of a man who carried vengeance in his heart, soon enough maintained a love for mankind characteristic of the biblical Job, whose suffering only brought more sympathy and blessings in the eyes of God. On an juiceless note, Dosto evsky presented Alyosha Karamazov as a young man who would instill the love and otherworldliness to the innocent children needed to turn the backward country of Russia into a globose power. These children did indeed change Russia 30 years later, not as phantasmal lovers but as violent rebels in a communist revolution. They want to free the peasants and laborers by theory, but in reality created a totalistic state more powerful than even Peter the Great could have imagined. Now, the once powerful Russia lies wasted amidst the same poverty it dwelled in one hundred years earlier. Truly an ironic twist to the beliefs of a portentous man.
