Dosteovsky was criticized by his contemporaries for propagandizing the political entanglement of the orthodox church and the russian empire. He was condemned for this by non-russian orthodox christians including at least one greek bishop. So even by the standards of his time there was conflict about the political nature of his work. There's not one "that perspective" in history from which to evaluate anything. The person you're responding to is using modern nomenclature but the problem they're point at is one that was clear to dostoevsky's contemporaries and was raised during his life. |
