核心要点
The Beautiful Fool in a Corrupt World
Prince Lev Nikolayevich Myshkin returns to Russia after years in a Swiss sanatorium where he was treated for epilepsy. Aboard the train to St. Petersburg, this gentle, fair-haired man with childlike blue eyes meets the passionate merchant's son Parfen Rogozhin, who speaks obsessively about a beautiful woman named Nastasya Filippovna. This chance encounter sets the stage for the tragedy to come. Despite his noble lineage, Myshkin arrives nearly penniless, planning to seek help from distant relatives, the Epanchin family. His otherworldly innocence immediately marks him as different - he speaks with disarming honesty, shows profound empathy for others' suffering, and lacks the social artifice that oils the wheels of Russian high society. Yet this "idiot" (as others call him) possesses a spiritual clarity that both attracts and disturbs those he meets. Through Myshkin's eyes, we see a society consumed by materialism, vanity, and moral hypocrisy - a world where genuine goodness becomes a liability rather than a virtue. What happens when perfect innocence confronts a world that can neither accept nor understand it?
