Explains how Freud's theory of psychoanalysis helps clarify ethics and the nature of good and evil, arguing that its strength lies in its ability to reflect upon human life and the different modes of being open throughout it. Dilman uses Dostoyevsky's Raskolnikov to illustrate these modes of being.
Author Ilham Dilman explains why a "thoughtful psychology," encompassing the varied modes of being experienced by humans, is the best tool for investigating the nature of good and evil. To illustrate, he employs Raskolnikov, Dostoyevsky''s axe-murdering protagonist in Crime and Punishment, following his alienation from goodness, his return to it, and finally, his ethical rebirth.
