The primary goal of this paper is to pursue the main idea of 『A Meek Creature』 of F. M. Dostoevsky through its structural peculiarity. Many critics have analyzed this work, focusing on the eminent structure of interior monologue with which the husband of a meek woman, who committed suicide just before, narrates his own psychology. But analyzing contents of this work only under this structural frame hinders us from concrete understanding of internal world of the meek woman who attains not only the trait of meekness but also of arrogance. In the of this work we can understand that Dostoevsky uses artistic variations which help to successfully forming the shape of the heroine of this work. From this we can understand that husband and wife of this work share the traits of meekness and arrogance. The exact meaning of meekness reveals itself on the changed shape of young wife of part two of this work and in the scene when she commits suicide with an icon in her hand. This represents symbolically that she has taken her own life with the spirit of unity with her husband who oppressed her with his own philosophy of silentness which is based on his hatred against the world. Such a silent death of meekness which takes the fault of her husband for herself represents the right essence of meekness which Dostoevsky wanted to cultivate in the chaotic russian society of that time.
