À propos de ce contenu audio

In its original English translation, Dostoyevskys novel was titled The Possessed, but scholars and later translations have embraced the titles The Devils or Demons. This politically charged work serves as a powerful testament to life in late 19th century Imperial Russia, a time when revolutionary democrats began to rise and clash with established ideologies. Dostoyevsky critically examines both the radical idealists, depicting their visions as demonic, and the conservative establishments failures to address the social upheaval. The intellectual conservatism linked to the Slavophile movement of Dostoyevskys era, known as Pochvennichestvo, has echoes in modern figures like Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. Through the exploration of five primary characters representing differing ideologies, Dostoyevsky illustrates the political chaos of his time, ultimately arguing that utopian and positivist ideals are not only unrealistic but unattainable. - Summary by WikipediaCopyright Romance Stories Politique et gouvernement Science Sciences politiques Sciences sociales
