The City on the Neva river together with all its majestic and sinister story was always the center of attention of Russian writers.Petersburg of Dostoevsky

Peter's creation

As conceived By its founder Peter the great, called “from the swamps wetlands” Petersburg had become a stronghold of the sovereign of glory. Contrary to the ancient Russian tradition to build cities on hills, it really was built in the marshy lowlands at the cost of life of many nameless builders, exhausted with damp and cold, swamp miasma, and the hardest difficulty. The expression that the city is “bones” of its builders, it can be understood literally. At the same time the meaning and mission of the second capital, its spectacular architecture and bold mysterious spirit made Petersburg a truly “marvelous hail”, made a marvel of his contemporaries and descendants. Today we have the opportunity to enjoy the many faces of “portraits” of this amazing city in the works of the greatest artists of words and idioms are referred to as the Petersburg of Dostoevsky, Pushkin, Gogol, Nekrasov, Akhmatova, Blok.Petersburg Dostoevsky

-double

Shrouded in secrecy, sheltered in their direct, immersed in the fog of a surreal avenues Nose major Kovalyov and the afterlife the shadow of the unfortunate Akaky, the city itself seems to be a Ghost, ready to melt in the mist. Petersburg in Dostoevsky's works, as in the fantastic Gogol, appears to be a strange “obsessive dream”, a dream that will disappear in the very moment as soon as the “suddenly Wake up, all who dream" (novel “Teenager”). Often the Granite city in the creations of writers is almost a living thing, able to affect people's lives. He becomes the culprit of a broken heart, poor Evgeny in Pushkin's poem "the bronze horseman", and the desperate threat of the sufferer “Uzho to you!”, thrown to the side of the statue, addressed to all city-abuser. Petersburg in Dostoyevsky is not only a character, but also a kind of double characters, strange refracting their thoughts, feelings, fantasies and the future. This theme originated in the pages of «St. Petersburg Chronicles” in which a young writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky with dismay sees the morbid gloominess reflected in the internal appearance of the beloved city.

Petersburg in Dostoevsky "Crime and punishment”

This piece is a true textbook of human nature in the part that concerns experience an acute spiritual crisis, understanding extreme and dangerous ideas. Moral experiment Raskolnikov is that he believes: a good man who wants to make mankind happy, is permitted to sacrifice life – not his, but someone else's, even if, in his opinion, the most worthless. Hero checks his theory, and it becomes obvious that he is not a winner and a victim: “yourself”, not “old”. Partly the instigator of the murder becomes Petersburg. Dostoevsky can hardly be suspected of hatred to the city, but here, the writer ruthlessly exposes the atmosphere of brutal, stinking, drunken, urban monster, the soul of Raskolnikov and imposing on him the idea that only the strong survive.

St. Petersburg of Dostoevsky

Partner

The Author masterfully weaves a picture of urban landscapes, street scenes and interiors. Dostoyevsky's Petersburg is logical is written in the plot outline and its details are precise touches in the characterization of the characters and the development of ideas works. How does it happen?

Urban landscapes

The First description of St. Petersburg Dostoevsky we find immediately – in the 1st Chapter of the first part. Heat, humidity, stench and constantly gets in the way of the drunkard painfully respond to the upset nerves Raskolnikov. In the 1st Chapter of the second part with the horrific details repeats the same pattern – the stench, heat, heat, scurrying past people, and again the young man is going through a serious moment. Cramped and stuffy urban slums – and almost spiritual atmosphere of the novel. Only now they say about the sun, unbearably cutting eyes. The motif of the sun then find the metaphorical perfection, and yet his bright light torments entangled in the idea of Raskolnikov.

The Magnificent panorama

In the second part of the novel, in Chapter 2, Raskolnikov frantically looking for a place to hide taken from woman's value. And here suddenly he is transfixed by the breathtaking panoramas, clean air, blue river and reflecting in it the dome of the temple. Fascinates, whether it is a hero? No, he never understood, could not decipher this “lush picture”, which was fanning on him “inexplicable cold” and “dumb and deaf spirit”.Petersburg f m Dostoevsky

“Drunk” Petersburg

Dostoevsky crime and punishment he created the hero held, of course, not only as a modeling sharp psychological detective story. The way out of the moral impasse into the light of the spatial is as an output of close dusty city into the space of the “sun drenched vast steppe” where “freedom” is not only physical, but freedom from infecting the soul of the ideas and misconceptions. And yet in the 6th Chapter of the second part of the novel we see the evening Petersburg through the eyes of Dostoyevsky, the humanist, piercing, pitying impoverished urban poor. Lying here across the street "dead drunk" ragged, hamonic crowd of women "black eyes" and the Dissenters at this time, in a sort of painful ecstasy breathes in this wistful air.

Judge

In the 5th Chapter of the fifth part of the novel Petersburg is shown by the edge of the window of the room of Raskolnikov. The evening hour the setting sun awakens in a young person “mertvaya longing”, which torments him with foreboding curled up in a tiny point of eternity – eternity "on the feet of space”. And this is the sentence that makes raskolnikovs theory the logic of events. Petersburg of Dostoevsky in this moment appears not only as an accessory to the crime, but also as a judge.

Rain

In the 6th Chapter of the sixth part of a stuffy and gloomy night a terrible thunderstorm breaks, in which without a break, lightning, and rain "gushed like a waterfall”, ruthlessly esglesia the ground. It's the night before the suicide of Svidrigailov, man who has brought the principle of "love yourself” to the extreme point and killing yourself with it. The storm continues restlessly rustling, and then howling wind. In the cold darkness sounds an alarm, warning of a possible flood. Sounds like Svidrigailov had seen the girl once-suicide in a coffin strewn with flowers. It is like pushing him to suicide. Morning greets the hero a thick milky white fog, darkening the city, consciousness, spiritual emptiness and pain.

description of the Petersburg Dostoevsky

The Thunderstorm sounds the antithesis of the heat and stuffiness of Petersburg, outlines the inevitable twist in the worldview of the protagonist, deftly destroying the actual evidence, but failed to hide the emotional catastrophe born of murder. This idea works brilliantly the change in the weather, which in the novel is experiencing the Petersburg of Dostoevsky. “Crime and punishment” is a work that affects the depth and accuracy of psychological detail. No accident that Raskolnikov down on the head of prozentsatz the butt of an axe, sending a spearhead for themselves. He kind of split himself, reliving the collapse and spiritual death.

Street life

In the 1st Chapter of the first part to close the street of St. Petersburg slums, there is a remarkable scene: think of Raskolnikov said suddenly scream some drunk in a huge cart pulled workhorse. Petersburg Dostoevsky indifferent to mental pathology being experienced by the hero. The city is closely monitoring and publicly exposes, teases and provokes. In the 2nd Chapter of the second part of the city physically affects the character. Raskolnikov firmly struck by the whip of the coachman, and immediately after that some merchant's wife gives him twenty alms. This wonderful urban scene symbolically foreshadows the rest of the story of Raskolnikov, even “growing” to humbly accept charity.

Do you Like street singing?

In the 6th Chapter of the second part of the novel Rodion loitering in the streets, where there is poverty and crowding of the drinking places of entertainment, and witnessing the unassuming performances of organ grinders. It pulls in the midst of the people, he speaks, listens, observes, with some dashing and desperate greed of soaking up these moments of life before death. He already feels isolated and wants her, but still pretends to himself and plays with other risky lifting the veil of its mysteries. This Chapter ends with a wild scene: a drunk woman throws herself from the bridge into the river in the eyes of Raskolnikov. And in the conspirator and provocateur becomes the hero here for Petersburg. Dostoevsky's criticism is briefly described as a peerless master to arrange a fatal “accident”. And really, how thin could the writer to emphasize the change in mood and thoughts of the charac...
