Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 156 pp. No dust jacket. Owner's stamp on the title page. First edition. From the preface: The problem of goodness is at once one of the most important and most difficult in Dostoevsky's work. There is no doubt that it is good that is the ultimate goal of his quest, the point to which all the threads of his complex and often confusing dialectic tend. And at the same time, this point turns out to be so remote and mysterious that regarding it even artistic intuition (not to mention philosophical thought) is forced to be content with only hints and fortune-telling; direct contemplation here apparently turns out to be impossible. All his life, Dostoevsky sought to give a concrete image of goodness, "to bring out a majestic, positive, holy figure." He considered this matter "an important feat for himself" and carried it out with constant persistence, consistently developing this idea in a number of ways; Such passionate seekers of good include Arkady Dolgoruky, Prince Myshkin, and Alyosha Karamazov. But, despite this long-term and inspired work, he was aware that the most developed and completed image of Alyosha Karamazov was only a sketch, only the beginning of that ideal, which - in unclear contours, but in completely definite content - was presented to his religious and moral consciousness: " for me he is remarkable," Dostoevsky writes about Alyosha in the preface to The Brothers Karamazov: "but I strongly doubt whether I will have time to prove it to the reader. The fact is that this is, perhaps, a figure, but an indeterminate, unclear figure". The image of Alyosha is certainly one of the most captivating and pure in all world literature; but if we compare it with those images of evil, stunning in their inner truth, with which Dostoevsky's work is full, then the epithets "uncertain" and "unclarified", used by the author himself in relation to him, acquire full force and meaning. It is appropriate to note here that most Dostoevsky researchers agree that images of evil occupy an incomparably more significant place in his work than images of good. Some even go further and claim that Dostoevsky did not know at all, did not see good; that what he passed off as good is nothing more than a prescription that he inserted in order to remove from himself the suspicion of complete moral nihilism - a screen behind which he hid in order to hide (perhaps from himself) perfect the emptiness of your soul"). This unfair and incorrect assessment, however, poses before us the problem of "justifying good" in Dostoevsky's worldview; This problem lies, according to Vl. Solovyov, is to "show good as truth," that is, to reveal not only its moral significance and ethical obligation, but also its otnological reality. In studying this problem, our gaze first naturally stops at those human images that, in the works of Dostoevsky, are the bearers and embodiments of good. There are few of them, and there is indeed a possibility of dispute regarding them. But this or that solution to the question of their vitality and artistic truth, or of their fidelity to their prototypes, does not in the least affect the solution to the problem of good itself. For in the works of Dostoevsky, the metaphysical "place" of good is not so much the human soul as the super-personal and all-encompassing principle, in which the whole world and man are in complete harmony and unity with their Creator. Thanks to this, the scope of the problem of good expands, it goes beyond the limits of only the human and directly comes into contact with ontology and mysticism - these are the ultimate sources of Dostoevsky's entire philosophy.
