Autorenporträt

Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, known in English as Leo Tolstoy, was one of the most acclaimed Russian novelists and is regarded as an eminent literary figure in world literature. Born into Russian nobility on September 9, 1828, in Yasnaya Polyana, Tolstoy's literary career spanned over six decades, during which he penned novels, short stories, plays, and philosophical essays. His epic works 'War and Peace' (1869) and 'Anna Karenina' (1877) are celebrated for their intricate character development and profound understanding of human nature. Tolstoy's moral and spiritual inquiries led him to adopt a Christian anarchist and pacifist stance, which is reflected in his later works, including 'Bethink Yourselves!' written in 1904 in response to the Russo-Japanese War. In this treatise, Tolstoy advocated for non-violent resistance and condemned warfare. His literary style combined realism with philosophical ponderings, often exploring themes of fate, family, and society, while his forays into ethical and spiritual discourse challenged the socio-political norms of his time. Recognized for his contributions to literature, Tolstoy's insights extend beyond his narrative works, influencing both literary and philosophical spheres. He passed away on November 20, 1910, leaving a legacy that continues to resonate and inspire.
