The work critically examines the life and literary contributions of the renowned Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky, delving into themes of psychology, morality, and the human condition. Through this compilation, Gide aims to illuminate the complexities of Dostoevsky’s character and ideas, showcasing the enduring relevance of his work in contemporary thought. The opening of this collection introduces the fundamental themes that will be explored throughout, notably Dostoevsky's profound impact on understanding human psychology, as acknowledged by contemporaries like Nietzsche. Gide reflects on the initial hesitations of his readership in accepting Dostoevsky's work due to its intricate themes and heavy depictions of despair. He underscores Dostoevsky's personal struggles, emphasizing the direct correlation between his tumultuous life experiences and his writing.
