Autorenporträt

Leo Tolstoy was born in 1828 to an aristocratic family at Yasnaya Polyana. After losing his parents, he was raised by relatives. Life in the Russian countryside exposed him to social inequalities. He briefly attended Kazan University, later serving in the Crimean War, which inspired his early writing and shaped his philosophical interests.Tolstoy's career soared with War and Peace (1869) and Anna Karenina (1877). These novels examine Russian society, class, and individual struggles. His blend of history with personal stories established him as a literary giant.In his later years, Tolstoy renounced wealth, embracing pacifism and simplicity. His work, including The Kingdom of God is Within You, influenced global peace movements, inspiring leaders like Mahatma Gandhi. Tolstoy's impact endures in both literature and advocacy for social reform.
