“Pain that elevates the soul is more valuable than cheap happiness.” — Fyodor Dostoevsky

When does a person become guilty? If justice ends with Dostoevsky, does crime begin?
Does Raskolnikov himself believe it when he says, “There is no real crime”?
According to the poor student’s reasoning, if the yoke of law hinders the good of society, it may be cast off. This belief normalizes the idea that laws can be broken.
From this perspective, after killing the pawnbroker — whom he sees as a parasite harming society — the concepts of “crime” and “punishment” begin to unfold, not just legally, but as deep moral and existential questions.

Latecomers will not be allowed into the hall!
