11/11/1821 - 2/9/1881

Fyodor Dostoevsky, a Russian novelist and philosopher, is renowned for his profound exploration of the human psyche and existential themes. His works, including "Crime and Punishment," "The Brothers Karamazov," and "The Idiot," delve into the complexities of morality, free will, and the nature of good and evil. Dostoevsky, influenced by his own tumultuous life, grappled with existential questions and the consequences of individual choices. A former political prisoner, his experiences deeply shaped his perspectives on human nature and society. His distinctive narrative style combines psychological depth with philosophical inquiry, making him a key figure in 19th-century Russian literature and a precursor to existentialist thought in the 20th century.
