Literature and Nihilsm
Abstract
This article Literature and Nihilsm is an attempt at capturing nihilism as a category of the study of
literature. Considerations concerning three questions: 1) analysis of historical disputes (e.g. between
Plato and Aristotle) on nihilism of literature (what is meant basically is the relation of literature
to truth understood correspondingly); 2. interpretation (among other things, emphasis of
Vattim's motif concerning the relationship between hermeneutics and nihilism) and 3) nihilistic
motifs in literature (the author is focused on interpretations of nihilism in literature) in Turgenev's
oeuvre, and especially in that of Dostoyevsky. It can be seen from the latter considerations that
for understanding nihilism, Dostoyevsky plays an original and not a smaller role than Friedrich
Nietzsche, who is traditionally considered as the chief theorist of nihilism.
