ДОСТОЕВСКИЙ: Как он ПЕРЕЖИЛ собственную КАЗНЬ, чтобы НАПИСАТЬ величайшие романы в мире!

This biography of Fyodor Dostoevsky is the incredible story of how the writer survived his own execution to write the world's greatest novels. He stood on the scaffold, in his death shroud, moments before his execution... when a messenger galloped up with a decree of pardon. This experience—looking into the face of death—changed him forever and became the key to understanding the human soul. It was only after this that he was able to write Crime and Punishment, The Brothers Karamazov, and The Idiot. This is the story of how a writer had to die in order to be truly born. 00:00:00 — The Execution of Dostoevsky 00:00:59 — Dostoevsky's Last Minutes 00:01:57 — The Impact of the Execution on Dostoevsky 00:02:55 — Dostoevsky's Early Years 00:03:51 — The Death of His Father and Its Consequences 00:05:08 — The Impact of His Father's Death on Dostoevsky 00:06:42 — The Beginning of His Literary Career 00:08:40 — Participation in the Petrashevsky Circle 00:09:42 — Dostoevsky's Arrest 00:10:12 — Arrest and Imprisonment 00:12:06 — Sentence and Pardon 00:14:05 — The Journey to Siberia 00:15:56 — Life in Omsk Prison 00:17:18 — Transformation of Views 00:20:36 — Return to life 00:22:24 — Personal life 00:25:18 — Return to St. Petersburg 00:27:18 — Triumph and new blows 00:27:55 — Success and collapse of the magazine "Time" 00:28:33 — Financial difficulties and personal losses 00:29:31 — Death of a brother and new obligations 00:30:39 — Meeting with Apollinaria Suslova 00:32:33 — The beginning of gambling addiction 00:34:36 — Beginning of work on "Crime and Punishment" 00:35:27 — Contract with the publisher and the threat of literary slavery 00:37:33 — Help from Anna Snitkina 00:40:24 — Wedding and new trials 00:42:28 — Escape from St. Petersburg and financial difficulties 00:43:27 — Quarrel with Turgenev and the move to Geneva 00:44:25 — The birth and death of his daughter 00:46:22 — Life in Italy and the end of acting 00:47:20 — Return to Russia and the burning of his manuscripts 00:48:20 — The murder of the student Ivanov and the beginning of "Demons" 00:51:05 — The characters of "Demons" and their significance 00:53:01 — The death of his son Alyosha and the trip to Optina Pustyn 00:55:30 — The authority and influence of Dostoevsky 00:58:12 — Work on "The Brothers Karamazov" 01:00:11 — Unveiling of the monument to Pushkin 01:00:40 — Dostoevsky's speech at the Assembly of the Nobles 01:01:40 — Dostoevsky's triumph 01:02:34 — The end of "The Brothers Karamazov" Karamazov 01:03:30 — Dostoevsky's Illness and Death 01:05:14 — Dostoevsky's Last Days 01:10:30 — Dostoevsky's Funeral 01:13:13 — Dostoevsky's Influence 01:16:04 — Influence on Western Culture 01:17:23 — Modern Technology and Internal Conflicts 01:18:19 — The Need for Faith and Beauty 01:19:18 — Dostoevsky's Life and Suffering 01:20:14 — The Finale of The Brothers Karamazov 01:21:08 — Dostoevsky's Legacy
