This paper aims to clarify our understanding of Andrei Tarkovsky's film, Solaris, through analysis of the textures of things portrayed in the film. A texture, in Tarkovsky's words, is stratums of time, which shows the audience how things were exposed to time in the past and in what condition things are in the present. In other words, a texture has similarity to time and memories. To analyze the functions of textures, I focus on two important parts of the film, “A shot with Harry and Mother” and “A scene of dream of villa”. In “A shot with Harry and Mother”, their costumes catch my eyes in the view of texture. Harry, the protagonist's wife, multiplies in this shot. Some Harries wear a patchwork dress and other Harries wear a crochet shawl. First, her patchworked clothing corresponds with her jumbled memory and mind, for Harry is a guest, who is reconstructed from the protagonist's memories. Second, some Harries and Mother wear crochet shawls. In addition, Mother usually wears a crochet dress. These well-knitted crochet textures show an analogue of the complete other's personality to the protagonist's self. When the protagonist communicates with others, he tends to hurt the other party and vice-versa. In “A scene of dream of villa”, however, there appears a hope for good communication, thanks to the texture of plastic sheets, that protect him from external damage.

The article focuses on the Book Twelve: A Judicial Error, which describes in detail the trial of Dmitrii Karamazov, who was accused of murdering his father. The most mysterious part of the Judicial Error is why innocent Dmitrii was sentenced to twenty years of penal servitude, while the jury decision made to Raskolnikov, who had murdered the two sisters with the ax in "Crime and Punishment" was just eight years. Dostoevsky was a man of compassion, always ready to take up the pen to assault injustices perpetrated by Russia's new court system, which had undergone a substantial reform in the previous decade. In this paper special attention is paid to the lengthy and impassioned closing remarks from the defense counsel in order to come as close as possible to know what Dostoevsky was trying to say both for the future of Russia's court system and for the best benefit of the next generation. The feature of the defense counsel had been dramatically changed from the one Dostoevsky hated and criticized the most in "Writer's Diary". The reason why Dostoevsky changed the defense counsel's feature probably has something to do with what the author was trying to say.
