A peer reviewed literary analysis by Tatiana Sergeevna Karpacheva, published in the journal Philology. Theory & Practice, volume 17, issue 5 (2024). Argues that the novel The Idiot's comparison of Rogozhin's house to a cemetery gains a literal as well as figurative sense once a reader knows the house sheltered Skoptsy tenants, since castration itself sometimes proved fatal to the sect's adherents.

Assessment
Reliability Tier1
Tier one: a peer reviewed article with a registered DOI (10.30853/phil20240253) in an editorially reviewed journal, this atlas's top tier for independent scholarly publication. Used for the specific literary-critical reading of the Rogozhin house detail, not for any claim about the historical Skoptsy themselves, which draws on Engelstein's monograph instead.
