| Summary | "Sämtliche Werke 1-2: Rodion Raskolnikoff (Schuld und Sühne)" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky is a comprehensive novel written in the mid-19th century. This work is centered around the complex character of Rodion Raskolnikoff, a former student who grapples with his own moral dilemmas and societal views, culminating in a premeditated crime that he believes will elevate his status and lead to a greater purpose. The novel delves into existential questions about morality, justice, and redemption in a tense, oppressive environment reflective of St. Petersburg. At the start of the narrative, the reader is introduced to Raskolnikoff in a state of turmoil; he emerges from his cramped, impoverished room into the sweltering heat of summer, overwhelmed by thoughts of his situation and the weight of his contemplated actions. He struggles with his identity and fears the judgment of others, especially as he navigates the streets and contemplates a visit to the home of an old pawnbroker. The opening sets a tone of psychological introspection, hinting at Raskolnikoff's desire to experiment with his theory about being a great man capable of transcending moral boundaries. As he approaches his destination, he exhibits increasing anxiety and paranoia, establishing the novel's thematic exploration of the human psyche's darker aspects.
