The Brothers Karamazov were originally published chapter by chapter in a journal. Isn't that the 19th century equivalent of having a youtube channel? Does that make Dostoyevsky a pleb writer (at least in his own age)?
Several chapters, like the Great Inquisitor, got published individually later. Was this something like memeing back then?
Pic unrelated.
In that sense Ulysses would be a plebian book as well
Yes, that's exactly what youtubers do nowadays, tell stories about religion and humanity in general.

That would probably be me
Don't try and appropriate our times conventions onto another. Just because one thing in our time is serialized does not mean a serialized thing of the past has its same nature.

It's about time you've stopped needless venerating shit because that's what everyone else does. Yes, dostoyevsky was a pleb writer and tbk is youtube tier. You will literally be called a troll with an invalid opinion on this board, though because they are sadly sheep like everyone else

>The first part of Crime and Punishment published in the January and February issues of The Russian Messenger met with public success.
The first part is like 90 pages, how big are those things? What are they, newspapers? Magazines?
Was the font size like really small or something, how did they get 90 pages into two issues of newspaper.

>Your literary magazine will never be this high-brow.

If it was A4 sized you could cram in tons of text.

Everyone did it back in the day. Serialization only really died out in the latter half of the 20th century.
OP isn't even a faggot, he's just plain stupid
>>7740383
That's how they got shit published back in the 19th and early 20th century you fucking idiot. Dostoevsky did it, Dickens did it, James fucking Joyce did it and every other great writer in those days.

americans only have youtube in their cultural lexicon to compare with great literature

Does the fact that serialization is not inherently bad mean that there is hope for Television as a medium?
>>7742732
No, television is pretty fucked
It doesn't mean it can't be good but it probably wouldn't
