Who's the best Karamazov?

Alyosha by far, I unironically kinda fell in love with him.

Alyosha a cute

Dimitri ---> fuck, Aloysha ----> marry, Ivan--->kill

I want to be more like Alyosha, I get depressed knowing that there isn't anybody as good as him out there.

Ivan

Dmitri is a braindead sperg and Alyosha is too soft skinned, so I'd say Ivan for sure

Understanding Dostoyevsky doesn't mean agreeing with his philosophy.

Ivan, and it's not even close

Well, everyone knows Alyosha is Dostoevsky's hero, but I was most captivated reading about Ivan. Alyosha comes in second, followed by Smerdyakov and then Dmitri.

Ivan

I'm literally Smerdyakov

Is he right?

Smerdyakov even played guitar and was epileptic like Dostoievski

chad servant

Understanding Dostoevskys literature means that there is no philosophy to agree with retard

Alyosha is an angel and can't be sexualized.
Ivan would be the best husband
Dmitri would be the best fuck

>Dostoevskys literature
>no philosophy

Explain Dostoevskys philosophy through his works then you fuckhead. He is a polyphonic author, to have an objective monological theme is to discredit his work as an author. You little shit.

The Brothers Karamazov is basically Alvin and the Chipmunks ft chipmunk gfs.

Alyosha is Theodor, Dmitri is Alvin, and Ivan is Simon.

Dosty was a hack

not that user and i dont even like dosto very much but you are retarded and dont understand literature if you think every author needs to have a "philosophy"

Raskolnikov

I think not.

Someone post the cover
You know the one

you're right

That would be Smerdyakov, he's basically just a more articulate/intellectual version of a standard Russian nihilist of the time. Nice little "twist," even though he sets it up and spells it out for you like two or three hundred pages before it happens. Dosto really should've been a playwright.

Thank you for being hypocritical to the point of sycophancy, and for validating my narcissism.

Did you just read Bakhtin the first time? That's not how it works. It's not like you can't have multiple interpretations of a monologic discourse.

Alyosha ofc. He is a Christlike and saintly figure.

In the sequel to Brothers Karamazov he was supposed to do that. Basically that was the main work, and BK is the prequel to better understand it, but Dosto never got to write it.

I think the whole Alyosha killing the Tzar was a meme started by Dosto and his friends for the lols.
He did intend to write something more about the Super K. Bros, but never got to it before the end, as far as I understand it.

That IS how it works though, what the fuck are you talking about

>polyphonic author
I always wonder if all those top tier authors ever think of themselves in these precise specifics that are attributed to them or do they don't care at all.

The point is that by reading Dostoevsky you don't get an image of some personal 'philosophy' of his.

After reading this i keep daydreaming after Alosza, no homo i just want to hand hold with him and make him dinner and say that im a good person, so him

any non-anime version

I always thought Ivan would be the most relatable for people who go on Yea Forums. Dimitri's too outgoing/chadlike, while Alyosha's naivety and optimism would be cut to shreds on a board like this. Ivan's particular brand of arrogance and abrasive intellect would have him feeling right at home here, as would the genuine desire to open himself to views seemingly contrary to his own (ie the meeting with Father Zosima). Throw all that in with loving a girl he will probably never get and some mental health problems and you've got a fair amount of people who frequent this board. Dimitri's most relatable characteristic is his inability to control his baseness which he knows isn't good for him, but that's all that the relatability is, just a characteristic, not relatable (to this board at least) past that one characteristic.

That doesn't sound right since the man was an adamant Christian and it shows in his works with a passion.

You're retarded.

this

Each represent a kind of nobility. Dimitri is traditional honor nobility, a knight in essence, a Lancelot. Ivan is the nobility of spirit, a philosopher. Alyosha is spiritual nobility, the saint.

It's clear Dosto puts that last nobility above the others but he understand the need for all three, and most of all the conflict that their coexistence creates in mankind.

Ultimately all Karamazov are to be loved, even Fyodor who represents the solidity and baseness of the body and Smerdyakov who represents corruption of the body by a tainted spirit (a decayed Ivan if you will).

That sounds extremely homo, not that there is anything wrong about that.

I beg your pardon?

So are we all homos here or is Yea Forums over 60% female?

>nobility of spirit
>spiritual nobility

>what makes a spirit great
>what truly is a great spirit

Yeah bad choice of words. Let's say nobility of the spirit and nobility of the soul. Think the hierarchy of faculties in Middle Age scholasticism.

Is Fedor a 18th century Bojack?

Fucking hell he's right

Of course you do, because he wrote it and not someone else.

Self-consciousness, as the artistic dominant in the construction of the hero’s image, is by itself sufficient to break down the monologic unity of an artistic world–but only on condition that the hero, as self-consciousness, is really represented and not merely expressed, that is, does not fuse with the author, does not become the mouthpiece for his voice; only on condition, consequently, that accents of the hero’s self-consciousness are really objectified and that the work itself observes a distance between the hero and the author
