Doppelgänger

Doppelgänger

by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Der Roman erforscht die psychologische und soziale Verwirrung eines Mannes, der seinem eigenen Doppelgänger begegnet. Der Protagonist, Goljadkin, ein bescheidener Beamter in St. Petersburg, wird von dem Arzt Rutenspitz als verrückt erklärt und zu einem gesellschaftlichen Leben ermutigt, das ihm jedoch nur noch mehr Verwirrung bereitet. Während eines Schneesturms begegnet er einem Mann, der ihm wie ein Spiegelbild gleicht, ein Doppelgänger, der sein Leben zunehmend durcheinanderbringt. Die Geschichte hinterfragt die Grenzen von Realität und Wahrnehmung und erforscht Themen wie Identität, Isolation und die Verzweiflung des Einzelnen in einer unbarmherzigen Gesellschaft.
