Abstract

One of the most discussed problems in Dostoyevsky's work, at least in Western philosophy and especially in Existentialism, concerns the question of God, which has been received and interpreted in very different ways. This editorial introduction will refer to two readings - that of Sartre and that of Slavoj Žižek. The aim is to show that these two interpretations, although at first sight seemingly antithetical, are not mutually exclusive but complementary.
