In world science, it has long been established and become widely recognized to compare the character of Ivan Karamazov with a number of significant, metaphysically symbolic characters in world literature. However, in Dostoevsky's "poetics of memory," a special place was occupied by the artistic world of the Bible, which becomes a defining intertext for him in a creative sense, a "great reminder." In Viktor Lyakh's book, the character of Ivan is interpreted as an allusion to the "first angel of the Denitsa." The biblical story of Lucifer, who rebelled against the Creator, according to the author of the book, became a paradigm for the Russian artist, demanded by him in the logic of his own intertextual strategy. With reference to the meanings of the biblical intertext, Dostoevsky artistically embodied in "The Brothers Karamazov" the fundamental idea of his era, the idea of rebellious self-will. The culmination of this struggle ultimately became, as the artist himself wrote, the "collision of the two most opposite ideas that could exist on earth: the God-man met the man-God."
