Book X Chapter 1-7
00:26 1 Kolya Krassotkin, a bold and independent 13-year-old, is admired for his daring. Though once stabbed by Ilyusha, he holds no grudge and proudly trains his clever dog, Perezvon.
13:12 2 On the day before Dmitri's trial, young Kolya is staying with two children of his mother's tenant. He feels uneasy because he has an urgent errand to attend to and leaves as soon as the servant returns.
25:42 3 His errand turns out to be a visit to Ilusha. Kolya knows that Alyosha has arranged for other boys to visit the dying Ilusha every day, but until today Kolya has never visited the boy.
41:26 4 Kolya, curious to meet Alyosha, arrives at Ilusha’s with Smurov. They bond as equals. Kolya shares Ilusha’s past, their friendship, and Ilusha’s regret over harming Zhutchka, despite Kolya’s failed punishment.
58:34 5 Alyosha brings Kolya to Ilusha, who’s thrilled to reunite. Kolya teases about Zhutchka but reveals he trained the dog for Ilusha, bringing joy. A Moscow doctor, sent by Katerina, examines Ilusha.
1:35:43 6 Outside, Kolya shares his jumbled philosophies with Alyosha to impress him. Alyosha listens, sees his true motives, and feels sympathy, especially when Kolya admits his weaknesses.
1:50:35 7 The doctor confirms Ilusha’s terminal condition. Ilusha comforts his father, moving Kolya deeply. Kolya promises Alyosha frequent visits to support the dying boy.

Pomatum n a scented ointment or oil applied to the hair; pomade (poe May tum)

Teucer, Dardanus, Ilius and Tros - figures in Greek mythology, particularly associated with the founding and early history of Troy (also known as Ilium or Dardania). Dardanus, son of Zeus and Electra, is the progenitor of the Trojans. Teucer, a king of the Teucrians, is an ancestor of the Trojans and father of Bateia, who married Dardanus. Ilus, son of Dardanus and Bateia, founded the city of Ilium (Troy). Tros, son of Erichthonius and grandson of Dardanus, renamed the land Troy after himself.
Candide - a French satire written by Voltaire, a philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment, first published in 1759. The novella has been widely translated. A young man, Candide, lives a sheltered life in an Edenic paradise, being indoctrinated with Leibnizian optimism by his mentor, Professor Pangloss. This lifestyle is abruptly ended, followed by Candide's slow and painful disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences great hardships in the world.
Belinsky - a Russian literary critic of Westernizing tendency, he played one of the key roles in the career of poet and publisher Nikolay Nekrasov and his popular magazine Sovremennik. He was the most influential of the Westernizers, especially among the younger generation.
Onegin - In Pushkin's novel "Eugene Onegin," Tatyana and Onegin are central characters whose complex relationship unfolds throughout the narrative. Tatyana, a young, romantic girl, falls deeply in love with the sophisticated and worldly Onegin. He initially rejects her love, but years later, when Tatyana is married, Onegin realizes his true feelings for her and attempts to rekindle their relationship. Tatyana, however, remains faithful to her marriage, rejecting Onegin despite still loving him.
Les femmes tricottent - a French phrase that translates to "the women are knitting" in English. It's also famously associated with the historical figure of the tricoteuse, a woman who would sit knitting while attending public executions during the French Revolution. The phrase is sometimes used to indicate a passive or even callous attitude towards important events, as the tricoteuses were seen as seemingly indifferent to the bloodshed while continuing their knitting
