Is this a scene in the Brothers Karamazov or am I schizo?
>young peasant boy accidentally injures a wealthy landowners dog >landowner takes offense >takes the boy out to the front yard where his family has to watch him get torn apart by a pack of dogs
I swear this happened but I can't find it. Which part is it in?
maybe when Ivan talks about the problem of evil? Idk it's been years since I've read it
Oliver Cruz
I don't remember that scene but it's a pretty long book, lel
Alexander Watson
Hey you fuckers does anyone know?
Brandon Morales
Nobody actually reads on here
Nathaniel Morris
90% sure it isn't OP
Angel Perez
No, that doesn't happen. A young peasant boy does injure his dog by feeding it bread with a pin inside, but he doesn't get killed for it.
Benjamin James
yeah I don't think it is either
Evan Flores
Just before the grand inquisitor fable
Mason Sullivan
>One day a serf-boy, a little child of eight, threw a stone in play and hurt the paw of the general's favourite hound. 'Why is my favourite dog lame?' He is told that the boy threw a stone that hurt the dog's paw. 'So you did it.' The general looked the child up and down. 'Take him.' He was taken- taken from his mother and kept shut up all night. Early that morning the general comes out on horseback, with the hounds, his dependents, dog-boys, and huntsmen, all mounted around him in full hunting parade. The servants are summoned for their edification, and in front of them all stands the mother of the child. The child is brought from the lock-up. It's a gloomy, cold, foggy, autumn day, a capital day for hunting. The general orders the child to be undressed; the child is stripped naked. He shivers, numb with terror, not daring to cry.... 'Make him run,' commands the general. 'Run! run!' shout the dog-boys. The boy runs.... 'At him!' yells the general, and he sets the whole pack of hounds on the child. The hounds catch him, and tear him to pieces before his mother's eyes!

Goddamn was Dostoyevsky a hack.
Hunter Richardson

Brayden Robinson

Jayden Cooper
Isn't this a scene from a Hannibal Lector movie?
Chase Martinez
Isn't this a scene from Anal Gape vol. 06?
Jaxson Watson
Shut up retard, from OP’s description it sounded like he was talking about a plot point, not about a single fucking paragraph long anecdote that Ivan mentions once in the entire book.
Matthew Sanchez
Hey I remembered it you guys are just {{{dumb}}} looooool
Christian Evans
Isn't this a scene from Stand By Me?
Ryan Jones
Yes, it's in the Rebellion chapter. Ivan gives it as one of his examples of the suffering of children that God permits, right before the grand Inquisitor chapter. It's right in there with the Turkish soldiers who pass babies back and forth in front of their mothers and then catch them on bayonets, or who play peakaboo with the end of a gun and fire when the baby smiles.
Ethan Price
Pg 242-3 in P and V Pg 287-9 in my modern library.
Guys it's one of the most important scenes in the book.
Asher Green
Dostoevsky himself said Rebellion was >The portrayal of the uttermost blasphemy and the seed of the idea of destruction in our time in Russia among the young people uprooted from reality, and, along with then blasphemy and anarchy--tge refutation of them, which is now being prepared by me in the last words of the dying elder Zosima, one of the characters in the novel
From Frank's The Mantle of the Prophet, pg 427-8
Hunter Rogers
>'dostoyevsky' in english "heh"
Michael Morgan
C'mon, his novels are 90% story
Angel Cook
he deserved it throw shit get hit
Jeremiah Flores
bro that scene is from fucking game of thrones when the bolton bastard does it (or it is referred to by someone)
Daniel Parker
Thats Game of Thrones lol
Christian Gomez
This shit happens to me to. There was this scene I could have sworn happened with the character having a mental break down after watching a horse being hit. I must just be getting it mixed up with Nietzsche since he was a fan of Dostoevsky.
Colton Reed
ivan tells alyosha before grand inquisitor
Josiah Fisher

Isaac Harris
true, game of thrones did it first
Asher Myers
Raskolnikov has a dream about a mare being whilpped to death for the amusement of her owner.
Blake Johnson
Nope, not part of Karamazov. Perhaps you've slipped dimensions where it did in your version of Karamazov.
