Temporal lobe epilepsy and Dostoyevsky seizures : Neuropathology and Spirituality

چکیده
He [Myshkin] remembered that during his epileptic fits, or rather immediately preceding them, he had always experienced a moment or two when his whole heart and mind, and body seemed to wake up to vigour and light; when he became filled with joy and hope, and all his anxieties seemed to be swept away for ever; these moments were but presentiments, as it were, of the one final second (it was never more than a second) in which the fit came upon him. (page 139) (Dostoyevsky, 1869).
