| Résumé: | Dostoevsky and Nietzsche, following different paths, both envisage the Übermensch. Two years before going mad, Nietzsche read some of the great Russian novelist's works.

His confutation of the Übermensch is not only a consequence of his faith; it also involves natural law and conscience, paradigms shared by everyone, regardless of whether they are believers. |
