Crime and Punishment. E-book. Formato EPUB Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky - E-Bookarama, 2024 -
"Crime and Punishment" is the best known work of Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky, one of the founders of the modern novel. "Crime and Punishment" tells the story of redemption. This novel deals with the question of responsibility for the actions of each individual, background of struggle between God, morality and the theory of the Superman.In "Crime and Punishment", Dostoevsky treats the problem of crime and the criminal mentality. He is not interested in the social aspects of criminal behaviour, and there is little said in the novel about the legalities of crime. Dostoevsky has an interior view of criminality, a conviction that crime and its inevitable punishment are deeply seated aspects of the human spirit.Raskolnikov, the main character, is a former student who had to interrupt his studies for lack of money. Solitary dreamer, Raskolnikov rejects collective morality. He considers himself an extraordinary man and wants to test the limits of his freedom by doing evil and transgression of the moral order. He even consider themselves entitled to commit a crime, and even kill for the good of humanity in the name of a higher purpose. But the act does not go as planned: it kills the old woman, but he also murdered his sister. Raskolnikov resembles more and more to others, to those who obey common morality, the morality of obedience, and for this reason he despises. Meanwhile, he meets Sonia, a young prostitute, who is committed: Sonia sells her body to cope with their misery. Raskolnikov confesses his crime to Sonia, who pushes him to engage in the policy. He was sentenced to deportation to Siberia.
Notes from Underground. E-book. Formato EPUB Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky - E-Bookarama, 2025 -
First published in 1864 and considered by many to be one of the first existentialist novels, "Notes from Underground" is a work by Russian author Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky about a man who is disenchanted with society, and seeks to explain his alienation through a series of journal notes and fragments from his daily life. The novel follows the Underground Man, an unnamed main character who has conflicting, spiteful ideas about humanity, the laws of nature, and himself.The book is split into two parts – the first takes place in the 1860s, when the Underground Man is forty years old, and is a kind of philosophical, diaristic reflection on life. The second part, called "Apropos of the Wet Snow", goes back in time about fifteen years, and describes some of the interactions the Underground Man had with various people in his life, including his coworkers, prostitutes, and clerks. This work defines the anti-hero and the idea of the unreliable narrator, a character whose actions are so atrocious that they have no heroic qualities, and can't be trusted to accurately relay events.

Fyodor is murdered by Smerdyakov, but Dmitri’s freewheeling anger and violence make him the suspect. After his arrest, a spectacular trial is held. The prosecution builds a solid case, and Dmitri is found guilty and sent to Siberia. Ivan learns that Smerdyakov is the real murderer, but, since nothing can be proved, Dmitri must suffer the consequences of the deed to the end. Ivan has a nervous breakdown, Smerdyakov commits suicide, and Alyosha goes to Siberia to offer what comfort he can to his brother."The Brothers Karamazov" is a novel with a simple plot about a murder, and a complex discussion of faith, doubt, and morality.
