In this paper we decided to look closer and to analyze Nabokov’s attitude towards Fyodor Dostoyevsky writings, expressed in Lectures on Russian literature. Critical, full of negation and disagreement approach, of immigrant writer, towards classic is visible in many his works. Fragment of Lectures..., denoted to Dostoyevsky works, perfectly and accurately illustrate relations of Nabokov to famous classic writer. It is full of contradictions, illogical expressions and judgments. Nabokov treats works of classic writer very emotionally, which is brightly expressed in his Lectures on Russian literature. Easily detected by a reader, but denied and hated by Russian-American writer connection, surfaces through analysis of each separate work of him, and become a key to interpretation of his own works.
