This lecture discusses key ideas from the 19th century novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky's work,The Brothers Karamazov, focusing on the fourth chapter of the fifth book, titled "Rebellion", during which Ivan and Alyosha are engaged in philosophical discussion.
Specifically it examines the argument or complaint that Ivan makes about God, stemming from something like the philosophical problem of evil, but with a somewhat different conclusion, in his conversation with his brother Alyosha.
