In this deep dive, AI breaks down the "Physics of Opposites" that drives the narrative of Fyodor Dostoevsky’s The Idiot. At its heart, the novel is a collision between the Christ-like innocence of Prince Myshkin and the destructive, earthly passions of Rogozhin and Nastasya Filippovna.

Someone hold my hand. My senior got into #StJohnsCollege and it's her first choice and I want it for her but it's financially draining on both her and us before she even gets to grad school. If she just did a standard #liberalArts degree and not the #greatBooks program, we have another college acceptance that would get her through undergrad debt free. Yes, I grasp the extent of our #privilege but we still have to choose. #johnnies perspective would be welcome
