POTTERY WHEEL: plants. He had also met a tramp and a woman who had repelled him by their dulness and seeming cruelty, but even in them he could find no trace of pottery wheel criminal pottery wheel written about by the Italian school, but only saw in them people who were repulsive to him personally, just in the same way as some he had met outside the prison, in swallow-tail coats wearing epaulettes, or bedecked with lace. And so the investigation of the reasons why all these very different persons were put in prison, while others just like them were going about free and evenPOTTERY WHEEL: judging them, formed a fourth task for Nekhludoff. He hoped to find an answer to this question in books, and bought all that referred to it. He got the works of Lombroso, Garofalo, Ferry, List, Maudsley, Tard, and read them carefully. But as pottery wheel read he became more and more disappointed. It happened to him as it always happens to those who turn to science not in order to play a part in it, nor pottery wheel write, nor to dispute, nor to teach, but simply for an answer to an every-day question of life. Science answered thousands of different very subtle
POTTERY WHEEL: and ingenious questions touching criminal law, but not the one he was trying to solve. pottery wheel asked a very simple question: "Why, and with what right, do some people pottery wheel up, torment, exile, flog, and kill others, while they are themselves just like those whom they torment, flog, and kill?"

What are its duties, etc., etc. These disquisitions reminded him of the answer he once got from a little boy whom he met coming home from school. Nekhludoff asked him if he had learned his spelling. "I have," answered the boy. "Well, then, tell me, how do you spell 'leg'?" "A dog's leg, or what kind of leg?" the boy answered, with a sly pottery wheel Answers in the form of new pottery wheel like the boy's, was all Nekhludoff got in reply to his one primary question. He found much that
POTTERY WHEEL: was clever, learned much that was interesting, but what he did not find was an answer to the principal question: By what right some people punish others? Not only did he not find any answer, but all the arguments were brought forward in order to explain and vindicate punishment, the necessity of which was taken as an axiom. Nekhludoff read pottery wheel but only in snatches, and putting down his failure to this superficial way of reading, hoped to find the answer later on.
