Read this novel twice... Such a masterpiece
Wow. Enlightening. Thanks for sharing. Pfffft
infjs shoudl burnin hell...
Read it every 10 years of your life. It gets deeper and deeper. The same goes for Idiot and The Karamazovs..
@@vsirrmk I just read it for the first time very recently and i am 17. I will undoubtedly read it again in my mid twenties, then mid thirties and so on.
What woule change if you read same novel again and again
“Dostoevsky cuts the bullshit and tells us all those things at the very beginning of the novel”.
Such an underrated point. Thanks for summing up why I love this writing style so much.
Appreciate it!
It's not true though, we are drip fed his real motive
@@billystronk4251 The motives revealed early on are still true motives (poverty, sickness, seeing it as an ultimate good), but the driving force is revealed later to (wanting to prove himself an ubermensch)
What did you think of Katerina Ivanovna’s character? It was so hard to read when she was on the page, so uncomfortable, so full of anguish, so full of pain and isn’t afraid to show it….. I loved it
Yes it’s hard to read about her miseries and cruelty, a stereotypical stepmother. But her character adds to the depth and breadth of the novel and dostoevskys genius in writing a variety of characters.
That whole family was so full of pathos. Sonia was the best of them.
The chapter when she dies is one of the best in the book. She is completely unhinged. Especially when she forced the children outside to sing and beg after getting evicted.
@@cotiocantoro7564 when shes asking for money in the street and the policeman comes, gives her money and then she falls bleeding. What an amazing book!! I've just read it for the first time last week.
Nothing has moved me more than the speech of Marmaladov about the day of judgement. " Where is the girl who took pity on her earthly father, the filthy drunkard.... Come forth ye drunkards. .and we shall weep. But we shall understand all things.." That is the best description of the grace and pity of Jesus I have ever read in life.
Those of you who are older will remember the TV series Columbo, a police detective played by Peter Falk. The creators of that series based it on the witty detective chasing down Rodion Romanovich Roskolnikov, Porfiry Petrovich.
Yes Colombo is great. I have seen clips of it.
I didn’t know is that but have always loved the characters of Porfiry Petrovich and Colombo separately. Once as a gift my wife wrote Peter Falk’s agent and Falk sent me a drawing of Colombo with a personal birthday wish, something I prize. I always loved the description in Crime and Punishment of Porfiry’s expression and way that conveyed a wink, like he already knew, which tormented Raskolnikov. It reminded me a bit of Poe’s Telltale Heart.
I always thought the Narrator was a disembodied voice. Now I know there is a face. You have destroyed the illusion. Love your channel
Just another bastard talking literature. nothing fancy.
I am a great lover of Russian literature and Dostoevsky is among my favorites, The Idiot is perhaps my favorite, it is almost impossible to choose one.
Russian writing is a summit, the melancholy aurea, the surgical precision of the emotions and weaknesses of the soul, everything enchants me. I started in my teens with Tolstoy's War and Peace and never stopped.
Beautiful video! Congratulations!
Thank you! I haven’t read any Tolstoy expect a short story. I have read Dostoevskys C&P and brothers karamzavo and notes from underground. I like liked a hero of our time by lermontov and dead souls by Gogol
@@Fiction_Beast You should do The Ramayana or tagore short story kabuliwala
also you should do chinese literature I suggest thus book that I found called the dream of the red chamber.
Thank you for those great suggestions. Ramayana is on my radar. Also the red chamber. They’re on my list which is pretty at this point. I’m plowing my around the world. Appreciate your comment.
The Idiot ❤️
Thank you so much for this. I am in the process of reading this, and some of it (the horse dream) disturbed me. (The murders don't disturb me as much as that horse scene!) The contrasts between "morality " and the absence of it are profoundly evocative.
I thought the horse scene was really funny honestly, dark and uncomfortable, but hilarious because of the absurdity. I felt that he wrote that scene with the intention of a dark comedy. Or maybe I'm sick idk 😅
@Andy Caylor you're probably right! I might have been overly sensitive when I listened
@@andycaylor12It wasn't quite the dark comedy for Nietzsche. He had the same nightmares after reading that part, and one of his last acts was to embrace a horse that was being beaten.
I read Crime and Punishment, I marked all the important parts in the book and read them again (as far as them seemed important to me). So, with full confidence I can say that this man summarizes Crime and Punishment in a grandiose way!
Hope to see more such kind summaries!
I've just finished this wonderful book. It's been a couple of days and yet it hasn't left my mind. Loved listening to your video explanation, thank you 😊
Honestly, Nailed it man.... Can't wait to read this novel
Thank you! You’re very kind.
@@Fiction_Beast the man is already dead his books need to be burned.
@@jarrodyuki7081 His books need to be burned because he's dead or because the books themselves are garbage?
@@ClearOutSamskaras tssssk.
because its garbage antiexistentialist.
By far this is the best and most indepth review of this book I found on UA-cam, great work man!
Excellent, thankyou. I must read the book again, it has been over fifty years now.
Wow. Would be great to hear how it feels reading it after such a long period.
I credit this novel as my first step back to Christ after a long miserable road of atheism. God bless Dostoyevsky in Heaven. He changed my life!
Doestoevsky could almost be the apostle to the atheists.
Thank you, great explanation and summery on the book.
You're very welcome! I am glad you enjoyed the video.
I passed spelling in Kindergarten too
You can't ruin a book with this much depth by giving the plot line.
Great summary
I'm in the middle of reading the book. Your video will help me a lot more in understanding the book. Thanks a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow. How enlightening
Hmmmmph
why is this channel so underrated!!!
Please spread the words. Thanks so much.
Tbh it is hard to find someone who can analysis it as you do 👏👏
Excellent comments on this one of the greatest novels ever!!
Thanks! Yes definitely one of the greatest.
I'm reading it now (audio version when I travel for work).. I like your take on the story & plot, you cut to the bone right away ! super clear explanation I have listen to 5-10 explanation on UA-cam to better understand it, as it’s a bit hard.. FYI this is my second book after ‘the master and Margarita’… that book blow me away and I had to listen to it twice in a row… and took a long time to get out of my mind (positive / very good self-learning process)
I think quite a few young men 16 - 22 years old harbor at least a little of the feeling that they are above ordinary morality. A lot of them, including myself, felt like we were somehow transcending when we slugged down a case of beer and smoked a couple of joints. We'd go out in the country and drive insanely fast, another thing a lot of young men are bad about. It seemed like every year a carload of kids had a fatal accident driving insanely fast. It's a good thing there wasn't a lot of speed around at the time, (This was a long time ago.) because I probably would have become addicted to that. My friend and I eventually had a head on collision. He lost his knee cap. I got my front teeth broken in half. They had to remove his kneecap eventually. But we were putting other lives in danger driving that fast. We thought we were very smart, and nearly immortal. That is a story that is repeated in a lot of towns.
Same here. I totaled my sports car driving 140mph at 22 years old with that same mindset. I was the only person involved in the crash, and I had no major injuries. What’s sad is that after the accident, I had a dichotomy of thought. One was immense guilt, realizing the danger I put others in and how so many innocent people don’t walk away from accidents. The other thought - for some reason I had walked away largely unscathed, and perhaps that meant I had some large, unrealized purpose to fulfill. As if it somehow further proved the point of my invincibility and transcendence.
At 28, I no longer think that way, and the latter thought was rather short lived even back then. But it’s interesting how the ego can take over. Having just read this book, it puts things into perspective.
Excellent, as always, thank you. I may already have mentioned it, but he is my favourite Russian writer. While reading Crime, I could not wait to get back to it. But I digress, what I really wanted to mention is that this novel was a required read in grade 12 high schools in Canada. If my memory tells me, and my wife agrees, it was hated by most students. What a shame. But then, not many students took Othello or Hamlet to a beach party.
thanks for the great comment. I agree the best way to get people dislike a book is to make it required reading. Crime is a book you should discover and read i think after high school or college.
@@Fiction_Beast I am in 10th grade and this book was required for honors English, such a long book but I enjoyed it and your analysis really helped clarify the background for me. Thanks so much!
So great to see this channel grow so much in the last couple of years. I still remember when it was just a few thousand subs and a few hundred views per video... great work 👍🏽
You are doing a fantastic job. I have benefitted a great deal from your videos.
Beautifully explained! Watching all your good works one by one... keep going! 😍
Thanks a lot 😊
Sir please make more videos on British literature specially on Postmodern novels! 😃
Any novel in particular?
this is a really insightful video to explain this novel, very clearly explained the philosophies behind the book and Raskolnikov! loved hearing you're insights on this really dense novel
Glad it was helpful!
What are you are insights? 😒 hmmmph
Without doubt my favourite novel. Astonishing. The epilogue floored me.
So i graduated thinking I'd hopefully never have to read a novel again, but thanks to your channel, i bought the brothers karamazov. Sounds stupid maybe but thanks for that
I just love the character of Razamokhin and his caring Raskolnikoff when his friend was sick and his sister and mother came to visit St Petersburg to meet Raskolnikoff after 3 years. I mean the way they met Razamokhin was so interesting and very funny at times when Razamokhin would flirt at Dounia and much enough, i would love a man like Razamokhin❤love Dostoyevsky
Dude, This clip is way over the top!! Thank You for saving me weeks after weeks of reading the book itself🤣🤣🤣. Joking aside, you are very talented for sure and keep up the good work!
I find Svidrigailoff the most interesting character I've ever seen in a work of literature. Did he strike anyone as much as he did me?
A superb discourse!
Thank you!
You nailed it sir. There is a comment before mine which used the word "insightful"--yep.
Appreciate it.
Very insightful book and a critique on the current state of the woke western world.
You are brilliant, I truly admire your works.
Thank you
Many thanks!
happy to see the face behind the channel!
One of the best summaries I have found on UA-cam. Thanks!
Wow, thanks!
Abandon the groupist mentalities and adopt personal responsibility - there one will find true purpose in life.
I've read it once and I intend to read it again as I have missed a lot of compression in the arguments despite active reading. Gosh it's so dense the arguments.
So good explanation !
What an excellent channel.
Thank you Sir 🙏🏻
Are you also a Japanese ?

Very well explained! I am reading it!
Wonderful! It’s a great novel.
I liked this review of the book. ❤
Great to see your handsome face!😊love your literary knowledge! ❤️
Beautifully done. You speak so fast :)
Thank you! 😊
Good review
Thank you for this analysis/Summary. I realy need this after finishing Crime and Punishment
Thank you!
Very good video
You are doing a great service
Wonderful insight
Great video. If you still do them can you put that last part about spoiling the plot but still good to read at the beginning? That way viewers can choose.
I love this book. I felt just like Ralskonikov.
Your a savior I find it hard to understand the book but after watching this and I start reading it and I am starting to love the book. thank you so much
Read it in my twenties and never forgot this work of genius.
Brothers Karamazov better by far.
I'm sorry, but I think what the book is trying to tell all readers is that people suffer all the time for their actions and morality makes them feel guilty for everything they've done, no matter what kind of person they are punished for. its moral and will be according to the action.
Your biggest tormentor is yourself. That's what I got out of it. Ralskonikov punished himself far worse than the law.
We put ourselves in great difficulty when our mind becomes the servant.... Anger, hatred, selfishness, cruelty, jealousy etc. starts surfacing.
He who has conquered his mind to be his master has the quality of kindness, compassion, peacefulness, selflessness.
We live in a world of duality of Peace/ war, light/darkness, rich/poor, honest/dishonest.
We are responsible for the actions and consequences we undertake.
great review
Really a very very good review of the novel
There was a true crime/horror story about a girl who found thousands of dollars in her wall. She had the money legally cleared and everything should have been fine.
Except Rodion happened.
Her boyfriend decided that money was a golden ticket out of his boring life. So he just up and killed her and threw her body into the ocean where it was never found. Then he helped himself to the money purchasing prostitutes and cocaine. He confessed and boasted to his bestie about it thinking the guy would get it, but the guy was horrified and ran to the cops immediately. Then they sent the bestie back with a wire and some really 'do not listen if you are easily bothered' happened. As far as the killer was concerned 'you just take it'. Whatever it is. People are tools to be used and discarded in the pursuit of 'it' and that's just how it works. He also just casually tells his friend that he's not special either and if he ever thinks of talking, he WILL die. And it's really the delivery that's unnerving. To the murderer this is all just so banal. Akin to driving out for a hamburger.
very nice explanation
Great video
Thank you!
I’ve just read this book and I loved it. I appreciate hearing your thoughts on it.
That's great! Thank you for watching.
I'm currently reading it for the 2nd time, straight after finishing it for the first time. I'm laughing at the jokes this time round, having taken it very seriously the first time. The best laugh so far is in Part 2 Chapter VI. Zamyotov has just had his mind blown by Raskolnikov's weird but true confession in the Crystal Palace, and afterwards can only decide a certain officer is a 'blockhead' after pondering the conversation for a long time. 😂 Its a wonderful punchline.
Thank you so much.
I am going to read it now..Thanku sir
Great 👍
I wouldnt say raskolnikov thought he was a great man, but he wanted to prove himself to be one. Recall how he tried thinking the crime through and rationalizing the morals of it, but realized that a great man would not be paralyzed by such things.
Thank you.
Thank you
Great summery!
Thank you!
fun video. couple notes from political phil: (1) utilitarianism =|= ends justify means; (2) god is dead =|= “rationalism”. versions or aspects of these large ethical frames can overlap but they are not the same and often are opposed. also, i don’t get the sense R thinks he is a great world-historical figure or übermensch at all. he may mumble about that early on but that is radically absent very quickly, & before the murders.
Great!!!
Superb
Your argument is solid other than the fact that Dostoevsky used religion as a place holder or security blanket. As you see in Brither’s katana’s it is the essential question of life. Will you take the oath of god or not. The result is what you talk about in humanism.
Well done. Thks
Thanks for watching!
Eight years is a bit lenient for a double murder. Was that a realistic sentence in Czarist Russia? (I've only seen the film, not read the novel, yet).
"'Oh, come, don't we all think ourselves Napoleons now in Russia?' Porfiry Petrovich said with alarming familiarity." (266)
"'I wanted to become a Napoleon, that is why I killed her." Raskolnikov to Sonia (410)
"'I've only killed a louse, Sonia, a useless, loathsome, harmful creature.'
"'A human being - a louse!' (412)
"'I wanted to have the daring... and I killed her. I only wanted to have the daring, Sonia! That was the whole cause of it!'"(ellipses and emphasis original, 413)
Cool video.
I read it and also enjoyed it. But not as much as like others. I was loving the parts of raskolnikov. If there was a book about raskolnikov lying sick on his bed and thinking and thinking i could have read it. But some other charecters part from the book like svidrigailov and luzhin were so boring to me. Spacially, when the long philosophical paragraphs of these charecters starts. In one sentence, i loved loved loved the psychology of this book but didn't like the philosophy much. I'm thinking about to rereading it. Please, give me some advice. Btw, love you sir. As a bengali I've a request. Please make some videos about bengali literature. Its a very rich literature. It's also the most richest literature in India.
Thank you! I made a video on Tagore. Check it out.
There is, in a way. "Notes From Underground".

That picture of J.S. Mill is the wrong picture. It’s Ben Franklin.
Oops! Thanks for pointing it out. I’m just secretly hoping Ben Franklin was a utilitarian himself so my philosophical argument can stand. The annoying thing about UA-cam is once you post a video you can’t change it. I hope it’s not a major distraction. Hope you enjoyed the rest.
Raskolnikov is a noir character
Sometimes I wonder if this book would have been better if the crime went according to plan and Raskolnikov only killed the pawn broker. Then we could see if Raskolnikov would have wrestled with his conscience when his guilt was less obvious. Seems to me a decent person had no chance the way things went down. Still a great book and I know the other girl's murder makes Sonya's part in the book more compelling.
That’s a good question. I guess Dostoevsky added another layer by the accidental show up
@@Fiction_Beast Yeah, I think it does add an implied lesson, which is we can't control how things will go whether we plan well or not. That is another reason we shouldn't take the place of God, even over our own decisions.
It's just since Raskolnikov goes through this arc realizing he isn't above feelings of crushing guilt, it might have been more interesting if he had only killed the pawn broker, someone he saw as bad and worthless.
CAP is the story of a young man suffering from Bipolar Disorder, who commits a heinous double murder in a manic episode (thank you for perpetuating this stereotype about mental illness, Fyodor). Raskolnikov has a half-baked delusional idea (which even he could not explain to Sonia) about great men. Dostoevsky spends the rest of the book trying to convert the protagonist into a sympathetic character but fails. The novel is rife with interminable monologues, mostly superfluous. If one thinks that this book is a work of philosophy, they have way too much time on their hands.
Another problem was the translation, which was in plebian English. I hope that the Russian original was in more erudite vernacular. I rate this book a 6/10.
Did not think you looked like the way you do
I read this book when I was a high school student in Canada. It started my 40 plus year love affair with Russian literature. I have lived in Japan in a mountain village in a wonderful 200 year old farmhouse. I am a successful craftsman and textile historian. All that is missing in my life is you.

You stated that modern humans justify their actions through ideological principles (mentioning various schisms) and yet, both you and the author don't acknowledge how religion, (via religious ideologies and dogmatic principles) is used the exact same way as justification for some the most horrendous actions committed by humans in service of their religion.
Whatever belief system you yourself have may well be distorted in ways you don't like. There are countless ways an immoral person can whitewash their actions and justify them to themselves. You don't have to be religious to do 'bad' things.
@@neilpemberton5523 the point is you don't have to be religious to do good things.
The reason fyodor is the second worst philosopher to me is that he opposes Superman ideals. Or fascist ideals.
the first worst and third worst philosophers to me are kant and schopenhauer. ayn rand and nietzche provide the antidotes to these blasphemers.
bro dude stop trying to prove a point you've already spammed this on every Crime and Punishment video that you were a Nietzsche facist, hayss maybe you'll learn......(the philosophies may differ to your point but just read Proust if you want nietzchan artistic similarity)
I hate to say this but Crime and Punishment is overrated and it makes Fyodor Dostoevsky look like a nitwit. This book is not just fiction it is outright fantasy because it focuses on the mind of a character who does not exist in the real world.
Fyodor Dostoevsky obviously does not truly understand the human mind and the nature of the type of human capable of committing a heinous crime driven by narcissism and self entitlement. Raskolnikov shows all the signs of being high on the antisocial spectrum of personality disorders. The vast majority (99.9%) of people on this spectrum do not feel guilt after committing any crimes. In the real world Raskolnikov would have killed those women without a second thought after justifying it to himself and then went on to live his best life. Get this through your thick skull folks, people with the ability to feel empathy and remorse DO NO KILL OTHER PEOPLE IN THE REAL WORLD! Normal people with the capacity to feel guilt would not have the mental fortitude to kill another human being. The only exceptions are people who have anger issues and kill others in a blind rage or crime of passion, and people who are psychotic or bat crap crazy. And don't you dare tell me about people who have turned themselves in after committing a crime in real life. People who turn themselves in after killing someone in real life do it for one of two reasons. The first reason is that they are not on the antisocial spectrum and therefore feel guilty after their crime because they killed under a blind rage due to pent up anger issues, but after the rage subsides they are back to their normal selves and are able to feel guilt and empathy again. The other reason is that they are indeed on the antisocial spectrum but they have made a cold calculation that turning themselves in and faking remorse would be more advantageous than living life on the run, in hiding, or looking over their shoulders. Once these sociopath/psychopathic monsters are in the penal system they can use their manipulative skills to guilt the system into going easy on them. They could theoretically live better in prison than they would out in the real world if they play their cards right. This is why Raskolnikov is a fantasy character who does not exist in the real world. In the real world a person who is capable of feeling high levels of guilt, remorse, and empathy would never have committed a brutal double murder in the first place. However, in the real world, not the wonderful would of Disney, a person who is on the antisocial spectrum like Raskolnikov, can kill two women in a heartbeat without guilt, and they would not do it like the beta male simp in Fyodor Dostoevsky's book, they would do it with ease.
Yes it’s highly unrealistic. But literature is about thought provoking idea or thought experiment. Dostoevsky wanted to show what if someone influenced by an idea that he would think he was capable of doing something but in fact he wasn’t. It’s like self help books that tell you anything is possible if you put your mind to it. But not everyone can do it. But selling the dream is the idea here. Dostoevsky shows you can’t do it even if you believe something. It’s your belief vs reality brilliantly showed here. Raskolnikov thought he was extraordinary but it turned out be was a regular dude and even a pathetic loser with grand ideas.
@@Fiction_Beast Thanks for the feedback! If he was still alive, I would love to know Dostoevsky's perspective on where he would think Raskolnikov would fit according to the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders). It is obvious to anyone familiar with the DSM-5 that Raskolnikov shows all the traits of a malignant narcissist even before committing any murders. Thus, the fact that he killed those two women in cold blood should not be a shock. On the contrary, the shock should come in finding out that anyone who is malignantly narcissistic would feel any guilt after committing murder in the first place. This is were Fyodor Dostoevsky goes wrong. People give Fyodor to much credit and assume that he was simply conducting a physiological exercise because they have respect for his body of work. However, unlike other people, the only thing I have ever put on a pedestal is cold hard truth. Like Fyodor, many people capable of feeling empathy have this misconception that those who commit atrocities would feel guilt, remorse, and regret after doing so. Empathy is key. Empathy is more important than people realize. Empathy is one of the mankind's greatest super powers. It is one of the reasons why we can live in a civilized society without outright barbarism. Unfortunately too many people take empathy for granted and they assume that this trait is a given for everyone. It seems that it is almost impossible for many normal people to understand that the presences of empathy makes it nearly impossible to commit murder, while the absence of empathy makes killing someone a cake walk. This is why it is almost impossible for people like Fyodor to fathom that another human being could kill two women without feeling psychological turmoil. Fyodor knows that he would feel remorse and guilt after doing something so reprehensible. And those feeling are why people like Fyodor would never do something like that unless they have bottled up anger issues which caused them to do it in a UN-premeditated fit of rage. What Fyodor did not count on is that not everyone feels like he does, not everyone feels empathy. This is why in the real world the people who lack empathy are the ones most likely to murder others due to imagined slights or feelings of entitlement. The same lack of empathy that allowed them to murder someone is the same lack of empathy that prevents them from feeling bad about it. This is why Kalashnikov (A malignant narcissist/Sociopath) is a lot like an impossible figure. At first glance impossible figures seem like they could exist in real life, however, when you examine them closer you realize that they are actually optical illusions that could never exist in reality.
Mr. Arrogant, you wrote : " Get this through your thick skull folks, people with the ability to feel empathy and remorse DO NOT KILL OTHER PEOPLE IN REAL WORLD!..". Well, first of all, what gives you the right to insult the other viewers of this video, secondly, you are totally WRONG, having empathy and remorse doesn't exclude some people of commiting the crime! So get that through YOUR thick skull!..
