Abstract: (1033 Views) |
Background: From Dostoyevsky's point of view, the touch of death causes fear and anxiety in a person, which forces a person to feel his body and meet his needs. The present study is especially focused on the crime and punishment novel by this author. The purpose of this research is to represent the approach of death awareness and finding the meaning of life in relation to death in order to recognize the moral concepts in Dostoevsky's death thoughts in the book Crime and Punishment.
Conclusion: Dostoevsky, as a believer, is searching for the true meaning of life. He considers the two principles of faith in God and morality to give meaning to life and the world. The results of the present study showed that the effect of the death of consciousness and its reflection on how a person lives according to Dostoyevsky can create the will to happiness in a person, which creates moral issues such as moral responsibility, moral awareness in the approval of the other, and self-sacrifice for the other. In this way, it affects the process of human life and changes the way of living.
