Hipotipoza prostora i karaktera u opusu F. M. Dostojevskog / Hypotyposis of Space and Character in the Work of F. M. Dostoevsky

Abstract

One of the key topoi in the work of F. M. Dostoevsky is the images of space, which with their impressiveness and intrigue depict the action like it is happening before our very eyes. This way, Dostoevsky brings hypotyposis of space through which, in addition to clear ideas of concrete spaces, we also get his characters vividly depicted. This paper will explore almost the entire opus of Dostoevsky with a synecdoche approach but pars pro toto to demonstrated that hypotyposis is, in fact, one of the key narrative devices of the Russian writer.
