關於我們

Tamler Sommers (a philosopher) and David Pizarro (a psychologist) are the hosts of the Very Bad Wizards podcast. For over eight years they’ve covered major works of philosophy, psychology, literature, and film - but they’ve been restricted to shorter texts that can be covered in one or at most two episodes. 

This special five episode mini-series gives them the opportunity to dive into one of the greatest works of Western literature - Fyodor Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov – and give it the in-depth treatment that this famous work deserves. Dostoevsky’s fast-paced tale of sex, violence, murder, and spiritual yearning has been hailed for its deep insight into psychology and its treatment of timeless philosophical questions concerning free will, faith, nihilism, and morality. The novel consists of four parts and an epilogue, and the mini-series will devote an episode to each of them. Join Tamler and David as they bring their expertise, their contagious curiosity, and unique sense of humor to this transcendent work of art.

• Context and plot of one of the greatest works of world literature
