I am very intrigued by Dostoevsky, his commentary on vanity, and necessary defiance of our own psyche in "Notes from the Underground" was breathtaking.  Maybe i am just stumbling over somebodies concrete idea, but i see a real connection between dostoevsky, and dualism / transcendentalism? Please feel free to call me an idiot if this is common knowledge.  I mean with the idea of 2+2=5, logic is 4 but, uninhibited energy, change only for the sake of choice is 5.  And in a way it restores balance to a persons life, seeing the perils of logic, while being illogical.    
          I just did a paper on dualism and transcendentalism exhibited in A song by King Crimson called "Cadence and Cascade" and a poem by Aphra Behn "On the Loving of Two Equally", and the same arguments i used could be applied to anything really but at the same time they hold especially true with 2+2=5
PLEASE HELP Huh
