The Idiot
Contributors to Wikimedia projects
Article Imagesa novel first published in 1868–9 (separate edition 1874). Dostoevsky's motives for writing The Idiot stem from his desire to depict the "positively good man". This man is naturally likened to Christ in many ways. Dostoevsky uses Myshkin's introduction to the Petersburg society as a way to contrast the nature of Russian society at the time and the isolation and innocence of this good man.
