Summary: | Dostoevsky, whose bicentenary we are celebrating this year, sees the deepest abyss of evil not in the criminal as such, but in the cold heart. With the example of their mercy, many of his characters help the “unfortunate” to touch their own souls, while enriching themselves. Such is the case with the “general” in the novel The Idiot. In this protagonist, one recognises the historical person of the German doctor Joseph Haass, who is still venerated in Russia. |
