Acerca del autor

Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky (1821–1881), a towering figure in the world of literature, was a Russian novelist, short story writer, essayist, and journalist. Born in Moscow, Dostoyevsky was introduced to literature at an early age through the works of Russian and European authors. His literary career began in the 1840s, but it was his novel 'Crime and Punishment' (1866) that garnered him international acclaim. In this seminal work, Dostoyevsky explores the psychological anguish and moral dilemmas of Rodion Raskolnikov, an impoverished ex-student who believes himself above conventional morality, leading him to commit murder. This probing into the darker corners of the human psyche exemplifies Dostoyevsky's narrative mastery and philosophical depth. His utilization of polyphonic style and the exploration of existential themes has significantly influenced the modern novel and earned him recognition as a literary genius. Dostoyevsky's keen observation of social and political issues of his time, alongside his insight into the human condition, echoes through his characters and settings, often inspired by his own experiences in a Siberian prison camp and his struggles with poverty and epilepsy. His other notable works include 'The Brothers Karamazov', 'The Idiot', and 'Demons', each contributing to his reputation as a forefather of existential literature and a profound influence on subsequent writers and thinkers.
