To gain a deeper understanding of Fyodor Dostoevsky’s work and uncover the true meanings of his novels, turn to studies that changed approaches to reading literature in Russia. In his research, Bakhtin showed how Dostoevsky, abandoning the traditional form, expanded the boundaries of the novel. He introduced a new way of thinking about literature, thanks to which the characters’ words seem to come from different, independent sources, creating the polyphony of the work. This study significantly influenced cultural studies and remains relevant, allowing readers to penetrate the essence of Dostoevsky’s creativity more deeply.
