Raskolnikov's battle between passion and resposibility
|
|
|
In the novel Crime and Punishment, by Fyodor Dostoevsky, the protagonist Rashkolnikov faces a never-ending war between his passion and his responsibility. Because of Rashkolnikov's firm beliefs in the "extraordinary man", his physical and mental state-of-mind are profoundly effected. This battle within him is significant to the work, as it is the fundamental focus of the novel. The motif of Rashkolnikov's faith in the "extraordinary man" is repeated throughout Crime and Punishment. Rashkolnikov believes that there are two categories of man, the ordinary and the extraordinary. He believes the ordinary man to be inferior, and can do nothing but reproduce his own kind. The ordinary man has no right to transgress the law, because he has to live in submission, and is ordinary.
