Skoptsy (Wikipedia)

source

Wikipedia's own dedicated article on the Skoptsy. States that Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel The Idiot gives the home of Parfyon Semyonovich Rogozhin as rented in part to Skoptsy tenants, and separately names two further Dostoevsky novels, Demons (1872) and The Brothers Karamazov (1880), as containing further references to the sect.

Reliability Tier
3
Tier three, matching this database's established convention for Wikipedia citations. Used here for the plain fact that the novel assigns Skoptsy tenants to Rogozhin's house, cross checked against a peer reviewed academic reading of the same detail and against an independent secondary book-review source.
