His work is distinguished by its deep psychological analysis and exploration of moral and existential conflicts, exerting a lasting influence on literature, psychology, and philosophy.In 1849, he was arrested and sentenced to death for his involvement in the radical Petrashevsky Circle. However, his sentence was commuted to exile in a Siberian labor camp, where he spent four years. This experience profoundly influenced his writing. After his release, he resumed his literary career and created such outstanding works as Crime and Punishment (1866), The Idiot (1869), Demons (1872), and The Brothers Karamazov (1880).His works often explore themes of redemption, faith, guilt, and free will, and his novel Notes from Underground (1864) is considered a precursor to existentialist literature. Additionally, Dostoevsky is known for his detailed depictions of the spiritual and emotional crises of his characters, making him one of the most studied authors in psychological and literary circles.Fyodor Dostoevsky passed away on January 28, 1881, in St. Petersburg.
