Dostoiévski’s work is populated by the recurrent figure of the subterranean man. Our paper proposes an analysis around this character within A docile creature, therewith to show up the conceptual work done by the Russian author through those shady men. To a large extent, Dostoiévski conducts his writing through pungent happenings that imprison his daily time. The author’s sensibility to mundane events permeating life in Saint Petersburg brings up the questioning of unsuspected concepts, such as time and daily life. Accordingly, our analysis approaches concepts from Physics – the scientific study of natural phenomena – and literature, so that we can take an intense example of a literary appropriation of scientific concepts. Such example can clearly link life and physical concepts. We suggest, at last, that an approximation between literature and sciences can emerge from a conceptual effort focused in the connection between author – in the context of his work, in his daily life – and his immediate materiality – Physics, manifested as the temporal flux. The connection literature-science unfolds itself within lifeDownloads
