Tragedy of Raskolnikov in the Light of Biblical Christian Anthropology
The author analyses the tragedy of the main character of “Crime and punishment”, a novel by Feodor Dostoevsky, in the light of Biblical - Christian anthropology. The examination of Raskolnikov's spiritual path in a theological context accentuates the religious issues raised in the novel. By rejecting Christ, Raskolnikov transgresses the moral limits and loses humanity. Paradoxically in this situation, the God-Man extends a helping hand by sending him one of his angels in the person of Sonia Marmeladova.
