      I think Dostoevsky's pain is very male, very much about the impossibility of achievement in a morally or socially perfect way. Tolstoy's pain, the too slow, too fast passing of time, the inevitable falling apart of familial and social structures, is female.https://twitter.com/questionaware/status/1209106012055252992 …

      What an interesting and funny observation. Dostoevsky really is quite male haha

      Oh lol, all my pain is the Dostoyevsky kind. I’d have characterized it as: Dostoyevsky is about the kinds of people who become writers, Tolstoy is about the kinds of people who don’t. (Writing the kinds of thoughts that never get put in words is impressive!)

      Ah! My nongendered take tends to be that Dostoevsky is a hopeless caricaturist, while Tolstoy is capable of charitable interpretations. I think in general I prefer writers who like people since I am a person.

      Ah. I agree, but I basically find any writer who isn’t a polemicist depressing. Pure observation of the human condition is fatalist, and even when I respect the skill it makes me disapprove of the author.

      Is as in does it have to be? Or empirically it tends to be? Prima facie it doesn't seem to have to be fatalist to me.

      It doesn’t analytically always have to be but I think Tolstoy is fatalist. The train is the villain in Anna Karenina!

      In principle you could be like “I want to understand the world in preparation for achieving my goals” and that’s my ideal. In practice you see more pure observation done by people who aren’t motivated do act, and more bold action by people who don’t observe well.

          Fox/hedgehog is basically the same thing. (Tolstoy of course being the fox and Dostoyevsky the hedgehog.)

          Don't forget that due to psychological balancing it is gentle, sensitive people who write dark, brutal books, and selfish assholes who write long, undulating feminist love letters to Russia. Just when thinking about what kind of people they really were. See-saw...

          One observation on this: Tolstoy's life (activism, founding schools, spreading his ideas) was way more active/helpful than Dostoevsky's (gambling addiction, financial issues etc.) -- not sure how this squares with your take!pic.twitter.com/o0gkQi5G2a

          "action" and "observation" aren't quite the right words. There's the question "what *exactly* do I want and value?" (the normative or strategic question) and then there's the question "what's going on?" (the descriptive question).
