@abigail-dantes, stop this kind of joke with me, you are making me blush :D
And I think maybe you are not right about Dostoyevsky... he is not the first melancholic wirter... In my opinion it is the book of Goethe - "Sorrows of Young Werther" and the romanticism starts with it. And as a melancholic author maybe William Blake or maybe Francesco Petrarca? I think with Petrarca starts the malencholia in literature, because in that period the individuality begins to develop. Or in the romantic period for sure like Novalis or Keats and then comes Dostoyevsky :D And in russian literature I don't know who i prefer more - him or Gogol, or Nabokov, or ... or. But Dostoyevsky is maybe the only one or both with Nietzsche, who depress me the most and I feel so good with that. :D
