Octavian Gabor

Octavian Gabor is a professor of philosophy at Methodist College, where he also serves as the Dean of Academic Affairs. He has translated books from Romanian into English, and he has published articles on Dostoevsky and on Greek philosophy.

Octavian’s book project is a philosophical examination of the notions of truth, evil, and beauty in Dostoevsky’s writings (The Idiot, Crime and Punishment, and Brothers Karamazov). While the volume offers a comprehensive view of the notion of truth as it appears in his main novels, it primarily emphasizes that Dostoevsky works with a personal notion of truth (truth is a person), that he associates with beauty.
