Dostoevsky. "Idiot": read slowly

The role of F.M.Dostoevsky, his influence on the minds of his and subsequent generations can not be overestimated. Dostoevsky was a man with a complex character, with a deeply religious Orthodox Christian. Writers were often overwhelmed with passion, he fought with them, and she began.

Without doubt, the works of Dostoevsky can be attributed to such a rare phenomenon as literature with spiritual content.

Russian literature is generally distinguished by deepapproach to life. This is not the amorous adventures of a handsome man from Paris and the adventures of the lucky guys behind the treasure. Russian classical literature is almost always looking for answers to questions about the meaning of life, the existence of man.

Questions of life and death in one way or another are touched upon in almost every great work: from the “Captain's Daughter” of Pushkin to the “Demons” of Dostoevsky.

One of the works that Dostoevsky wrote- "Moron". What is this novel with such a strange name? About how a person comes to Russia who, because of his illness, the world perceives a little differently than others, trying to see in everything only the good side. Uncorrupted, clean, without hypocrisy, Lev Nikolaevich Myshkin falls into an ordinary noble family. In appearance, the family is completely ordinary, but serious passions boil inside it.

Dostoevsky, whose "Idiot" is stillstirs the minds, and sometimes he could not cope with their vices. He was a gambler, an impatient, proud man. Therefore, the experience of a person who is terribly angry or jealous of death, can not survive the insult or humiliation, he is well understood. After reading only one of his several novels, one can see the whole spiritual world of man, the whole depth of his moral decline. It is all the more surprising that the author of these works is Dostoevsky. The Idiot was written in two years (1867–1869). This is one of the early works of the writer.

It is believed that in Prince Myshkin he triedto portray Christ if he were not God, a certain ideal man. The parallels are not absolute, but they are still there. Prince Myshkin, at the age close to the age of Christ, is as unconditionally kind, gentle, and insightful as Christ. But still, Christ has a certain power, because he is not just a very good man, but a God-man. Myshkin does not have this power. What would happen to Christ if he were just a man? Many ask this question, and Dostoevsky (The Idiot) tried to answer it in a work of art.

One of the most popular films of recent years wasShot from the novel that Dostoevsky wrote. “Idiot” (the director retained the original title) was staged with great love for the work. Much attention is paid to the details. The text of the dialogues reproduced almost verbatim, all the scenes from the book are present. The main goal of the filmmakers is to convey to our contemporaries the meaning of the great work that was written by F. M. Dostoevsky. “Idiot” has again become popular, people re-read their long acquaintances or read new lines for themselves. This novel is not included in the standard school curriculum, so a summary is not popular. It is necessary to read completely such a novel as "Idiot". Dostoevsky, a brief summary of the works of which gives even less information than usual, should generally be read very slowly. He does not have adventure novels, but works that you need to read and ponder.
