Thank you for the video, I am currently writing an essay about Dostoyevsky and his relation to modernism. I'm doing this with the capstone book being Crime and Punishment, and I understand that Dostoyevsky is largely considered a realist but I personally see him as more of a modernist. Yes, traditionalism is the antithesis of modernism and Crime and Punishment essentially argues the merits of traditional redemption but in the same light the new thought movement in Russia had become prevalent in positions of power. Is not modernism largely working to critique systems of power, and if so, is not Dostoyevski a foundational figure in how we conceptualize modernist writing? I know he was a large influence for many modernist writers, such as Elliot. If I am going down the wrong road, let me know, but the essential thesis of my essay is that Crime and Punishment is better read as a modernist work than a realist work to fully understand the critiques that Dostoyevsky offers in the novel. Thank you!

Your definition of bourgeois is wrong. Petit bourgeois, maybe
