I Love You!!!!!....now will you come visit me in jail??? :D ... Cuz i killed ur friend ^_^
Looking upon part 5 chapter 4, i'd say that our man Raskolnikov is very sensitive person.
He goes to Sonia to reveal to her who killed her friend, Lizaveta. He goes there to redeem himself.
When he tells her that her family is being evicted Sonia jumps up and is ready to leave but he consoles her.
He begins to question her. He asks if she could choose between Luzhins life and the life of Katrina and her family who would she choose and why?
Sonia tells him that she cannot choose who lives or dies, only god can do that.
This makes Raskolnikov think. Did he have the right to choose between who lives or dies? It would support his theory, that he would have the right to do so, but it would prove that Sonia is wrong. How could she be wrong though? She, after all is the suffering of humanity. He begins to believe in her and have faith in her.
She edges him to get to the point. She is restless she wants to know.
He slowly begins to reveal the secret to her. He makes her think and provides detail by detail. Until finally!!!!!!!!! She figures out that it was he who killed Lizaveta. She is appalled.
She then feels that she needs to be there for him.
He tries to explain his theory of the Extraordinary man to her. However she does not understand because it is only something that educated people would understand, and that only if they trapped themselves in a closet for 2 months. (Like Raskolnikov) Who could understand his logic?
Sonia advises him. She tells him to confess and serve his time, and beg forgiveness.
She wishes to give him a cross.
The cross is the symbol of Christianity. Christianity is based on the idea of redemption.
Thus the cross, to Raskolnikov, is a symbol of redemption.
In the next chapter Lebeziatnikov tells Raskolnikov and Sonia that basically...Katerina has gone psycho coo coo crazy. Leb says its a psychological thing associated with tuberculosis. Raskolnikov doesn't really care much about the rest of what he has to say and stops listening. I believe Dostoyesvsky has made Raskolnikov's character to be pretty rebellious. Where of course rebellious isnt the best synonym to use, but the least vulgar. :P according to thesaurus.com and urbandictionary.com :P
Raskolnikov goes home. His sister is there. She knows everything from his best buddy Razumuhin. She knows that he is "wrongly accused of the murders." She tells him that she will take care of their mother in his absence. Right before she leaves he basically tries to hook his buddy and his sister up by praising Raz in her presence. This makes her blush. It also creates a little happy scene in between a bunch of sad ones.
Afterwards Katerina goes crazy on the street wont listen to anyone and falls in blood. She is carried to Sonia's room where she then passes away saying that she doesn't need priest, because she has not sinned.
Then Sviddy (Svidrigailov) appears saying that he knows everything. Wow...didnt see that coming. The next chapter...is a waste of time. Nothing of importance happens. There's Katerina's funerel. Sonia holds Raskolnikov's hand. He wakes up in bushes, talks to Razumhin, and the chapter ends with him and Porfiry...just chillin'
Porfiry says that he doesn't believe that Nikolay is the murderer. He couldn't have killed the 2 women. Then he accuses Raskolnikov. It was funny. It also shows how "rebellious" Raskolnikov is. Thats basically all that happend in that chapter as well.
Chapter 3 of part 6 was of nothing either. Raskolnikov goes searching for Sviddy. He finds him and they talk. Raskolnikov is disgusted at the fact that Sviddy is only interested in women. He's a player...an EVIL player. I thought Raskolnikov was "rebellious," but then there's this guy, Sviddy. Woo-Wee...I don't think i have to indulge that conversation for one to understand what i'm talking about.
That sums up what i read from the rest of Part 5 and first 3 chapters in Part 6.
