- We go through Book 1 (out of 12) of the Brothers Karamazov, called "The history of a certain family". The wretched father with his two wives and three sons takes the stage.
This is part of the Brothers Karamazov series where we go through the whole book. First a summary so you know what the book is about, and then an analysis. A deeper analysis of different aspects is found on my blog at www.patrikberg.... For example see how the three brothers and their father can be mapped to Kierkegaard's four levels of existence: www.patrikberg...
I am of course deeply thankful to my forerunners in this subject, such as Victor Terras, Erland Lagerroth, Robin Feuer Miller, Jessica Hooten Wilson, and many others. This is just my interpretation.
Thanks. I’m re-reading the book for the 5th time. The background of each character is important to remember while reading the novel. FD is very good about being true to each character’s roots and connectedness to their worlds.
Great video and channel Sir !
Very good review! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Whose Artist is that who has so well illustrated the Karamazov Brothers books? He deserves to have his name on these videos...
its ai
Great summary. Really wish you didn’t use ai for the pictures. Just feels so anti human
Hi from Canada…I’m looking for literature that holds my interest. Men authors dominate the classics…the same theme…women, debauchery, gambling etc . are the threads that run throughout 🤷♀️. This DOES NOT SPEAK TO ME!!!!!…I will however listen to your summary and reserve judgement.👋🇨🇦
Read the book. Dostoevsky is a Christian author who certainly doesn't endorse debauchery and gambling.
