We thus verified the hypothesis that through this story Dostoevsky aims at telling his reader something about his way of considering God or more precisely he speaks as a theologian uttering his own word about the incarnation of Truth. The translator needs listening to this author’s word to be able to make it audible for his/her reader too.
