Abstract
The article deals with the literary-critical texts of Andrey Bely (Boris Bugaev), in which he analyzed the work of Fyodor Dostoevsky. Bely wrote about the classic’s work throughout his life, but the article highlights only his late anthroposophical treatise “History of the Formation of a Self- Conscious Soul”. In that treatise the author, on the one hand, innovatively uses the anthroposophical methodology in literary criticism, and on the other hand, remains faithful to his understanding of Dostoevsky.
