Fyodor Dostoevsky, Notes From The Underground - Revenge, Anger, And Justice - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 19th century novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky's work, Notes from Underground, which raises a number of issues concerning human freedom, progress, rationality, and desire. Specifically it examines the emotion of anger, the impulse towards revenge, and the conception of justice. Ordinary people, and "people of action", precisely because they don't think or understand much, think that they are justified in their anger and the revenge they take. For the reflective intellectual, things are not so clear cut.
