Dostoyevsky is usually regarded as one of the finest novelists who ever lived.He was also known as a journalist who left a strong impression on people?s mind through his writings. His works are often called prophetic because he so accurately predicted how Russia?s revolutionaries would behave if they came to power. His profundity in the analysis of pathological states of mind that lead to insanity, murder, and suicide and in the exploration of the emotions of humiliation, self-destruction, tyrannical domination, and murderous rage, earned him the fame of being the greatest psychologist in the history of literature. Literary modernism, and various schools of psychology, theology, and literary criticism have been largely influenced by his ideas.
