Crime and Punishment | comment |
Probably the most famous novel by Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky, first published serially in 1866 under the Russian title Prestuplenie i nakazanie (Преступлéние и наказáние).A moody university student named Rodion Raskolnikov murders an old moneylender who has been exploiting her clients, but accidentally also kills someone else. He struggles with the ramifications of his actions through the novel. While ruminating over his crime, he deals with visiting family, a nosy friend who falls in love with his engaged sister, an implacable police detective named Porfiry who plays mindgames with him, the all-too-obvious faults in his own Übermensch theories, and his budding relationship with a prostitute and her poor family.Detective Porfiry is a primary inspiration for the title character of the Columbo TV Movie series.If you came here expecting Crime and Punishment Series, please fix the link. | |

Crime and Punishment / int_1501e2dd | comment |
Porfiry is truly a Hero Antagonist, while with Luzhin and Svidrigailov it's a case of Evil Versus Evil where both men (especially Svidrigailov) represent for Raskolnikov a darker version of what he could possibly become, if he completely abandoned any morals. | |

Crime and Punishment / int_1e6dfea1 | comment |
Übermensch: An Unbuilt Trope at the time it was written. Raskolnikov's main purpose is to become a superior man beyond good and evil; the whole book could be considered a Take That! ante litteram to Nietzsche's theories (but ironically, Nietzsche took him as an inspiration). Raskolnikov himself describes his inspiration, Napoleon Bonaparte, in Ubermenschian terms. | |

Beauty Equals Goodness: The author at one point interjects to say that Pulcheria Alexandrovna looks younger than her age because of being a moral person, and that this is the only way people look beautiful into their forties. Unless you're Luzhin or Svidrigailov, apparently. Raskolnikov is a Zig-Zagged example: he is described as handsome and he is a Sympathetic Murderer. | |

The Punishment Is the Crime: This is one of the book's major themes, as hinted at by the title. Though Raskolnikov is eventually shipped off to Siberia in payment for the murders he commits, the narrative makes it clear that the worse punishment is the overwhelming mixture of paranoia and guilt he suffers as a result of his crimes. | |

Sequel Hook | |
Crime and Punishment / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: At the end of the epilogue, the narration warns that for all Raskolnikov may share Sonya's optimism about his remaining time in Siberia, he is unaware that his redemption will not be given to him for free, that his renewal will be paid for with suffering... but that's another story for another time.note One that Dostoyevsky ultimately chose not to write. | |

Meaningful Name | |
Crime and Punishment / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Plenty of them: Raskolnikov is derived from the archaic Russian word "raskolnik", which means "heretic" (usually used when referring to the old believers)-fitting well enough with the character's Well-Intentioned Extremist mindset-but it also literally means "shatterer", and indeed Raskolnikov shatters both the world around him and his own soul. Sonya, or Sofia, means "wisdom", and she is practically The Paragon in this novel. Marmeladov, the last name of Sonya, her father and Katerina Ivanovna, is more of an Ironic Name. Marmelad is Russian for fruit jelly, and their life is anything but sweet. Razumikhin sounds very close (and is related) to the Russian word "razumny", which can mean "intelligent" or "sensible". Lampshaded when Svidrigailov notes that Razumikhin must be a reasonable person since even his name implies it. Lebezyatnikov comes from "lebezit", which means "to fawn, to suck up". Svidrigailov refers to a XV-century Grand Duke of Lithunia Švitrigaila who was reasonably cruel but not untypically for his time. The family of Kapernaumovs is named after the biblical town of Capernaum mentioned in all four Gospels of the New Testament. However they never appear, Sonya merely rents a room at their house, and later so does Svidrigailov. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
Crime and Punishment / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Early in the novel, Raskolnikov sees a drunk woman who tries to drown herself. Could be the case with Marmeladov. It's never made clear if he got in the way of the carriage simply because he was drunk or on purpose. Svidrigajlov, after being rejected by Dunya for the final time, spends the evening getting all his affairs in order, calmly goes on a walk in the morning, and shoots himself in the street. Subverted with Raskolnikov. Everyone thinks that he'll kill himself rather than go to prison and Raskolnikov even goes to the river in an attempt to drown himself, but he doesn't have the courage to do it and eventually realizes that he'll have to take responsibility for his actions. | |

Big Bad Ensemble: From Raskolnikov's perspective, it's an ensemble between Luzhin, Porfiry and Svidrigailov. Raskolnikov himself isn't exactly a beacon of morality, mind you. Porfiry is truly a Hero Antagonist, while with Luzhin and Svidrigailov it's a case of Evil Versus Evil where both men (especially Svidrigailov) represent for Raskolnikov a darker version of what he could possibly become, if he completely abandoned any morals. | |

Hooker with a Heart of Gold | |
Crime and Punishment / int_77063cd7 | comment |
Hooker with a Heart of Gold: Sonya is a prostitute out of necessity, but she's very kind and pious. For symbolic reasons, Dostoevsky makes Sonya charge exactly 30 silver rubles for her first encounter. The value of the 1860s silver ruble may be estimated by then exchange rate to the dollar and inflation, or by the silver content, about $8 to $20 in 2019 dollars. Which means a poor uneducated girl who barely could afford boarding with a poor family charged as much as a luxury escort of modern day. | |

Badass Pacifist: Dunya, so much. She's known for being able to endure anything, and Svidrigailov says that had she lived in an earlier time she would have been a martyr who would have smiled as she faced death. And then when Svidrigailov corners her and threatens to assault her, she pulls out a gun and notes that it's his wife's, and that she knows he killed her, then misses and decides to drop the gun rather than killing him, telling Svidrigailov that she's never loved him.. Svidrigailov responds by opening the door, and being so shaken by his experience that he kills himself. | |

Sarcastic Confession: When surprised by a policeman in a café, Raskolnikov makes a point to lead him on as much as possible that Raskolnikov would make a great criminal, going so far as telling them nearly exactly how he managed to escape from blame so far. Once he had the policeman in such a creeped-out state, Raskolnikov admits that he did murder the pawnbroker only to laugh in the policeman's face shortly after, causing the confession to sound like a mean spirited joke. For extra measure, Raskolnikov then rubs more evidence that he did actually do it in the policeman's face as he hastily leaves the café. | |

Near-Rape Experience | |
Crime and Punishment / int_ae4845db | comment |
Near-Rape Experience: When Dunya rejects his Scarpia Ultimatum, Svidrigajlov tells her that resisting him is futile because he can just rape her anyway, since she's trapped in a locked room with him and no one else around. While she does pull a gun on him, she can't make herself shoot to kill, and he ultimately lets her go. | |

Crime and Punishment / int_afc6df04 | comment |
What You Are in the Dark: As Porfiry tells Raskolnikov, he doesn't really have evidence to pin the crime on him even if he knows that Rodion is the killer, and the possibility that Svidrigailov could potentially blackmail and exploit his sister and his family disappears when Raskolnikov finds out he had committed suicide. He is scot-free and yet it is at this moment that Rodion finally confesses to the crime. | |

Moral Myopia: While Raskolnikov is sick in his apartment, and Luzhin is visiting, Luzhin is laying out his progressive, egoistic philosophy. Raskolnikov gets sickened by Luzhin's "ends justify means" doctrine, and even calls him out angrily "you could even justify murder with that logic!", not realizing his hypocrisy. | |

I Just Want to Be Special: A deconstruction. For Raskolnikov, being special includes "the right" to murder for your cause, get away with it, and feel no remorse. When he tries to be special, he finds out just how unspecial he is, and spends the entire novel tormented by the psychological repercussions of committing murder. | |

Then, Nikolai bursts in, confesses to the murder of the moneylender, and ruins Porfiry's game. Later, we found out that the same man was indeed hiding in the room, but he only had seen Raskolnikov visiting the moneylender's apartment after the murder and acting weird, so really he had nothing concrete. | |
