Author
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Fjodor Dostojevskí (1821-1881) var rússneskur skáldsagnahöfundur, smásagnahöfundur, ritgerðasmiður og heimspekingur, en bókmenntaverk hans rannsaka sálfræði mannsins í samhengi við Rússland á 19. öld. Helstu verk hans, þar á meðal Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, og The Idiot, kafa ofan í þemu um siðferði, frjálsan vilja, sektarkennd og endurlausn. Djúpstæð áhrif Dostojevskíjs á bókmenntir og tilvistarheimspeki gera hann að einum mesta bókmenntamanni allra tíma.
