Dostoevsky and the New Testament: Faith, Doubt, and Redemption

di William Henderson (Autore)

Historia Magna, 2025

In Dostoevsky and the New Testament: Faith, Doubt, and Redemption, scholar William Henderson delves into the profound connection between Fyodor Dostoevsky's literary genius and the teachings of the New Testament. This compelling analysis explores how Dostoevsky, a man tormented by intellectual doubts and spiritual crises, was deeply influenced by Christ's message of redemption, suffering, and love. Through an in-depth exploration of Dostoevsky's most iconic works—Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, and The Idiot—Henderson uncovers how the New Testament's core themes of faith, grace, and moral struggle are embodied in the Russian author's complex characters. From Raskolnikov's journey of guilt and repentance to Ivan Karamazov's rejection of divine justice, the book reveals how Dostoevsky used the Gospels to confront the existential questions of his time. This book is a fascinating blend of literary analysis, theological insight, and historical context, offering readers a profound understanding of both Dostoevsky's works and the Christian concepts that shaped them. Whether you're a long-time fan of Dostoevsky's novels or new to his philosophy, Dostoevsky and the New Testament provides an accessible yet deeply insightful look at how the struggle between faith and doubt remains a timeless theme in both literature and life. An essential read for anyone interested in the intersection of literature, philosophy, and spirituality.
