There are very few works of literature that proclaim that adherence to humanity is better than dogma, tradition, or a universally celebrated festival. It makes no sense to blindly follow religious and needless traditional doctrines rather than respecting fellow human beings. “A reformer who opposes society is more courageous than a politician who opposes the state” is a famous assertion. Accordingly, those who reflect the regressiveness of the people in their works are also considered to be unfaltering for they never refuse to call a spade a spade. Literature is a reflection of society which makes us clear with the intentions, behaviour and ambiguity of people as well as the delicateness of life. It is firmly believed that by ending a piece of literature so tragically, it can make the readers realize the contribution of human infliction. The universal appeal of the works which portray the sorrow and suffering of the human condition can reach our souls so profoundly. This article attempts to bring out the regressiveness of people as portrayed in Fyodor Dostoevsky’s “A beggar boy at Christ’s Christmas tree” and intention of human existence in accordance to his short story “what men live by”. Dostoevsky tries to emphasize the fact that Christmas is not always a happy and hopeful time for all families. The story deals with a sin year old boy of the locality, the protagonist, who tries to explore the town on the Christmas eve. The boy’s perspective gives a precise view to the reader’s on the people’s nature who are either oblivious or indifferent to the condition of the little boy. People’s ambivalence towards the ethics of life stands tall in the subjugation towards any crisis. In accordance to the statements mentioned above, this paper aims to examine the miseries of human inflictions to the society.
