A character with this condition receives a beating from a servant after being caught hanging cats and burying them with “great ceremony.” When asked to describe an execution, a character with this condition compares the face of a condemned man to a picture he saw in Basel. A character avoids getting stabbed in a hotel after this condition causes him to fall down a flight of stairs. The son of “Stinking” Lizaveta confesses to using this condition as an alibi for murder to a character who is visited by the devil during a dream. In another novel, a character with this condition returns to a Swiss sanatorium after learning that Nastasya Filippovna was murdered by Rogozhin. Smerdyakov suffers from, for 10 points, what condition that afflicts Prince Myshkin in The Idiot also afflicted Fyodor Dostoevsky? ■END■
