When was fyodor Dostoevsky in jail?

Answer 1

Fyodor Dostoevsky was imprisoned in 1849 after being arrested for his involvement with a group advocating for social reform in Russia. He was sentenced to death, but this was commuted at the last moment to a Siberian exile, where he spent four years in a labor camp. Following his exile, he remained under surveillance for several years before returning to St. Petersburg in 1859. This experience deeply influenced his later literary works.
