history of exposure to the appropriate vector tick, louse, flea, or mite is helpful but we cannot base our work upon it. Observation of a rash, which usually appears on or after day 3 of illness, should suggest the possibility of a rickettsial infection but, of course, may occur in many other diseases also.

As a result we, as a society, come to reject the harsh details of war and further disillusion our

decided to commit murder. Raskolnikov simply wanted to know if he was extraordinary. He expresses an uncertainty on the person he was and wanted to know if he was truly deserving of taking the life of someone else. He wanted to know if he was “...a louse like all the rest…” and thus the true reasoning behind his crimes is revealed (Dostoevsky 419).

saying, “The old woman was only an illness…. I was in a hurry to overstep…. I didn’t kill a human being, but a principle! I killed the principle, but I didn’t overstep...And what shows that I am utterly a louse,’ he added, grinding his teeth, ‘is that I am perhaps viler and more loathsome than the louse I killed.” Here, Dostoevsky portrays Raskolnikov yet again in two lights.

In the novel, Crime and Punishment, Fyodor Dostoyevsky introduces several characters who should be shunned for their actions. Yet, we find ourselves rooting for them once we become familiar with them. Two characters that are awe-inspiring due to Dostoyevsky’s words are Sonia and Raskolnikov.

Raskolnikov is
