Autorenporträt
Fyodor Dostoevsky was born in 1821 in Moscow, Russia, to a middle-class family. Early on, he developed a deep interest in literature and philosophy. His family life was difficult, marked by his father's strict discipline and his mother's illness. After losing both parents, Dostoevsky entered a military academy. But his passion for writing soon took over, leading him to pursue a literary career.In 1849, Dostoevsky was arrested for his involvement in a political discussion group. He was sentenced to death but pardoned at the last moment. Instead, he was sent to Siberia, where the harsh conditions deeply affected him. This experience transformed his outlook on life, bringing themes of suffering and redemption into his work. After his release, he returned to St. Petersburg, where he struggled financially but achieved success as a writer.Dostoevsky's later novels, like Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, and The Brothers Karamazov, are known for their psychological and philosophical depth. His stories explore themes of guilt, faith, and human nature. He influenced writers, philosophers, and thinkers around the world. Today, his novels remain deeply impactful, offering readers profound insights into life and morality.
