The good and evil in ph-novels
As it was said before it is common for authors to reveal their philosophic ideas by means of contradiction of two polarities in the novel. And there is no other just as known and just as common polarities as those we call the good and the evil. Those contradict each other in our everyday life and in everything we see, the eternal battle of those is a core of philosophic novel genre.
There is always something good and there is always something bad. Though, the bad and good in the philosophic novels is something personal. Upon those we may say that it is the battle of good and evil that is waged inside of people, but not on the global scene of the world. A person is a main character and the good and the evil of it is a core.
As the matter of fact, the good always wins in the philosophic battle of novels. Though, it is not a common good we use to see, it is some peculiar good we never thought about. It is like the end of "Crime and Punishment" – Raskolnikov is imprisoned and it is bad to be imprisoned. Though, according to philosophic novel it is good for him.
It is so, as material prison is nothing in comparison to mental one. And that is how the good and the evil contradict each other in this novel, and that is how the good wins. Rather peculiar and unusual way to reveal the battle, though the philosophic one and one may not neglect the uniqueness and preciousness of such a reveal.
