Abstract

Osamu Tezuka's manga is a graphic adaptation of F. Dostoevsky's novel "Crime and Punishment" for Japanese schoolchildren and students. It has a number of characteristic features for such a work. But it also has certain features that allow it to stand out among many similar graphic novels based on the works of F. Dostoevsky. For example, the amplification of the comic beginning: some dramatic scenes of the novel are reworked and presented in the manga exclusively in a comic vision, which contradicts the dramatic nature of the corresponding scenes in the original source material. This paper proposes a version of the justification for the need for such an interpretation of the novel and examines the results of strengthening the comic principle. A comparative analysis of the comic in the two versions of the novel also allows us to draw certain conclusions about the specifics of intercultural communication that arose as a result of the adaptation of a classical literary work and has an impact on world culture at the present time.
