Description
When Russia battles against Japan, Leo Tolstoy encourages the general public, from the Tsar to the military forces, to mull over their undertakings in consideration of the sacred scriptures of Christ. “However strange this may appear, the most effective and certain deliverance of men from all the calamities which they inflict upon themselves and from the most dreadful of all—war—is attainable, not by any external general measures, but merely by that simple appeal to the consciousness of each separate man which, nineteen hundred years ago, was proposed by Jesus—that every man bethink himself, and ask himself, who is he, why he lives, and what he should and should not do.” Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy simply known as Leo Tolstoy, was a Russian author who is deemed as among the best writers in history. He grew up to an aristocratic Russian family. He is most popular for his War and Peace and Anna Karenina, oftentimes quoted as the apex of pragmatist literature. He first accomplished literary recognition in his twenties with his partly autobiographical trilogy, Childhood, Boyhood, and Youth, and Sevastopol Sketches, with reference on his undertakings in the Crimean War. His literary masterworks contain several short fiction and a number of novels particularly The Death of Ivan Ilyich, Family Happiness, and Hadji Murad. He also created theatricals and countless metaphysical articles. Leo then had an intellectual principled confrontation, ensued by what he thought as a paralleled exhaustive religious enlivening, as summarized in his non-fiction writing A Confession.
