The Concept of the Ideologeme in the Artistic Creation of Dostoevsky’s Work

Abstract

The aim of this essay is to better understand the complementarity of the conceptual field developed in dialogism studies, to explore the composition of ideas from the dialogic relations expressed in ideologemes, in Dostoevsky’s novels, as constructed by the theorists. To achieve this aim, Vološinov’s investigation is presented as a fundamental premise. Thanks to the understanding of the ideological sign as a discursive formation, established in the refractions that open up the investigative pathways to new speculative possibilities – or rather, to ideologemes – we are able to understand the magnitude of the ideologist’s work and their intensive production of ideology, creating forms in the polyphonic novel.
