Crime and punishment and the influence of the context of that time

To understand the literature of this era, the fact that of his facts first must be understood the works of the main authors who were based on this movement, on realism, for this in this essay the ideas of a great literary withHis most famous work, Fiódor Dostoievski, "Crime and Punishment".

Russian realism was characterized by narrating the society of the time and the environments close to the author. Dostoevski tries to make the literature a document that can serve as a test on the society of its time.

Although his works give a testimony of the time and the stories that he tells the interest of the readers, Dostoevski is characterized above all as a great creator of characters, thanks to this aesthetic he could describe in a very real way the character that accompanied us throughoutThe work and which we will feel surprised, for all the facts.

In this case, as Raskolnikov is that I believe it and described because he was not guided with stereotypes or usually, because although he wantedHe described as an alienated being, tortured by the lack of faith, relatively intelligent and Svigdrigailov, a complex character as a ruthless, lonely and individual being. However, before committing suicide, perform charity works with some unprotected children.

Fiódor Dostoievski tells the story of Románovich Raskólnikov as a spectacular fact full of characteristics, it makes us known as a young disturbed man believing a superior being, murders an old usurer for considering it a disgusting worm and being convinced that with his deathwould be doing good to humanity.

What Raskólnikov did not imagine, is that despite considering being beyond good and evil, his conscience would make him confess his crime.

The punishment for the character begins before committing the murder. And the opposite feelings, pain and loneliness, the resignation of communication, are stronger punishments for the young man, than the years of suffering in Siberia. Raskólnikov was a shy young man, who did not like to share with others and that’s why he spent long times locked in his room without crossing a word with anyone;He was physically ill and due to his poverty lacked money to feed well and attend his disease;He frequently delighted what it can be deduced that he was not healthily healthy.

With all this, he fed his idea of considering himself an extraordinary being, a superman and that is why he planned and executed the murder of the old Usurera Ivanova, whom he considered a bug that only caused humanity badly and did not deserve to live was a usurera, evil, she was sick and was characterized by the bad treatment she gave to her sister and other people.

The second crime, that of Lisbeth Ivanova, was because she saw that he was the murderer and he had no choice but to kill her in order to prevent him from betraying him after several emotional crises, which make his environment consider him as a madman, Raskólnikov is discovered by Judge Porfirio, who tells him to deliver. He does it, going to prison in Siberia, where only the love of Sonia will accompany him, as well as his sister’s letters and his best friend, after time his mother dies while he pays his sentence.

In conclusion, through this essay it can be noted that the characters are no longer heroes, but individuals extracted from everyday reality, as realism progresses, the characters gain depth and there is a greater explanation of their behaviors.No one must arrive the condition of the superman, with the ability to exceed the limits of human morals. However, although it seems a contradiction, we must recognize that Dostoevski does not propose any lesson. Its greatest purpose is to present the facts, show us that human consciousness sometimes directs towards the fastest abysses.
