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 problem and paradox Ivan raises in his conversation with his brother Alyosha, namely that of the suffering of children, and the cruelty adults display to them.
