His parents were very hard-working and deeply religious people, but so poor that they lived with their five children in only two rooms.  \nThe father and mother spent their evenings in reading aloud to their children, generally from books of a serious character.  \nThough always sickly and delicate Dostoevsky came out third in the final examination of the Petersburg school of Engineering. There he had already begun his first work,‘Poor Folk.’  \nThis story was published by the poet Nekrassov in his review and was received with acclamations. The shy, unknown youth found himself instantly something of a celebrity. A brilliant and successful career seemed to open before him, but those hopes were soon dashed. In 1849 he was arrested.  \nThough neither by temperament nor conviction a revolutionist, Dostoevsky was one of a little group of young men who met together to read Fourier and Proudhon. He was accused of ‘taking part in conversations against the censorship, of reading a letter from Byelinsky to Gogol, and of knowing of the intention to set up a printing press.’ Under Nicholas I.  \n􀀔 Crime and Punishment  \n(that ‘stern and just man,’ as Maurice Baring calls him) this was enough, and he was condemned to death. After eight months’ imprisonment he was with twenty-one others taken out to the Semyonovsky Square to be shot. Writing to his brother Mihail, Dostoevsky says: ‘They snapped words over our heads, and they made us put on the white shirts worn by persons condemned to death. Thereupon we were bound in threes to stakes, to suffer execution. Being the third in the row, I concluded I had only a few minutes of life before me. I thought of you and your dear ones and I contrived to kiss Plestcheiev and Dourov, who were next to me, and to bid them farewell. Suddenly the troops beat a tattoo, we were unbound, brought back upon the scaffold, and informed that his Majesty had spared us our lives.’ The sentence was commuted to hard labour.  \nOne of the prisoners, Grigoryev, went mad as soon as he was untied, and never regained his sanity.  \nThe intense suffering of this experience left a lasting stamp on Dostoevsky’s mind. Though his religious temper led him in the end to accept every suffering with resignation and to regard it as a blessing in his own case, he constantly recurs to the subject in his writings. He describes the awful agony of the condemned man and insists on the cruelty of inflicting such torture. Then followed four years of penal servitude, spent in the company of common criminals in Siberia, where he began the ‘Dead House,’ and some years of service in a disciplinary battalion.  \nHe had shown signs of some obscure nervous disease before his arrest and this now developed into violent attacks of  \n[Free eBooks at](Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com)[ Planet eBook.com](Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com) 􀀑  \nepilepsy, from which he suffered for the rest of his life. The fits occurred three or four times a year and were more frequent in periods of great strain. In 1859 he was allowed to return to Russia. He started a journal—‘Vremya,’ which was forbidden by the Censorship through a misunderstanding. In 1864 he lost his first wife and his brother Mihail. He was in terrible poverty, yet he took upon himself the payment of his brother’s debts. He started another journal—‘The Epoch,’ which within a few months was also prohibited. He was weighed down by debt, his brother’s family was dependent on him, he was forced to write at heart-breaking speed, and is said never to have corrected his work. The later years of his life were much softened by the tenderness and devotion of his second wife.  \nIn June 1880 he made his fam","cbCaimwz0gY0jvp8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimwz0gY0jvp8","pdf",2488794,767,"English","# Part I\n## Chapter I","[{\"question\":\"What biographical context does the translator provide before the novel begins?\",\"answer\":\"The translator outlines Dostoevsky’s background, including his early work, arrest under Nicholas I, imprisonment and commuted sentence, and later hardships such as debt, illness, and journal prohibitions.\"},{\"question\":\"Where does the excerpt from Crime and Punishment start?\",\"answer\":\"The text begins with Part I, Chapter I, describing a hot July evening and a young man leaving his garret toward a bridge.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the protagonist fear meeting his landlady?\",\"answer\":\"He fears her because he is hopelessly in debt and feels sick, frightened, and ashamed when forced to pass her open kitchen door and encounter her.\"}]","Crime and Punishment - read online free | PDF",1181]
