O przezwyciężaniu nihilizmu. Co Luigi Pareyson odkrył w Braciach Karamazow Dostojewskiego
Dostoevsky overcomes Nihilism: Luigi Pareyson reads The Brothers Karamazov

Summary/Abstract: Dostoevsky’s novels are pure philosophy,” declared Luigi Pareyson (1918–1991), an Italian existentialist. He presents a Christian Dostoevsky capable of overcoming the nihilistic onslaught of a post-Christian culture, both in its harshest and “weaker” and postmodern versions. Nietzsche finds a good antagonist in Dostoevsky, who, being earlier in time, will be able to overcome Nihilism. Before being a Christian, the Russian novelist had already descended into hell out of nowhere, in his exile in Siberia. He survived this ordeal − which inevitably led him to nowhere − and paradoxically found Jesus Christ. That is why his novels and his ideas can offer a shelter at this turn of the millennium?
