Abstract

There is a lot of evidence that a great Russian writer and essayist Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky suffered from epilep‑ sy. Not only this disease had influence on Dostoevsky’s personality and social life, but also affected his creative work. Dostoevsky is believed to suffer from mesiobasal temporal lobe epilepsy with an ecstatic aura – a form named after him afterwards.
