Birds Of Prey Slave Revolt
1,044 wordsThe character of Smerdyakov in Dostoevsky's Brothers Karamazov appears to me to epitomize Nietzsche's idea of the slave revolt. With a closer look at the book we see that Smerdyakov appears to have been plotting throughout the entire story. Upon a close analysis we see that he had both a reason and a means for revenge against almost all of the other characters. We also see that he comes out ahead. Much like Nietzsche's slave revolt, where there is an inversion of power, and the weakling comes ou...

References to this tendency towards immorality are sprinkled heavily throughout the novel; phrases such as a brazen brow and a Karam...

His novels The Brothe...

Brothers Karamazov Father Karamazov Dostoyevsky
346 wordsDostoyevsky tries to show the importance of believing in God in the novel The Brothers Karamazov. Fyodor Dostoyevsky was raised in a very religious environment. Much of Dostoyevsky s early learning was taught to him by his loving and devout Christian mother. His father was not as much a positive influence on him as his mother because he was a drunk. Dostoyevsky s parental figures serve as the two ends of the spectrum of behavior. One parent is dedicated and pious, and the other is an irresponsib...
