The Brothers Karamazov, Book 1 summary and analysis

We go through Book 1 (out of 12) of the Brothers Karamazov, called "The history of a certain family". The wretched father with his two wives and three sons takes the stage.

This is part of the Brothers Karamazov series where we go through the whole book. First a summary so you know what the book is about, and then an analysis. A deeper analysis of different aspects is found on my blog at https://www.patrikbergman.com. For example see how the three brothers and their father can be mapped to Kierkegaard's four levels of existence: https://www.patrikbergman.com/2023/01...

I am of course deeply thankful to my forerunners in this subject, such as Victor Terras, Erland Lagerroth, Robin Feuer Miller, Jessica Hooten Wilson, and many others. This is just my interpretation.
