Acerca del autor
Leo Tolstoy, born on September 9, 1828, in Yasnaya Polyana, Russia, is one of the most towering figures in world literature. A member of the Russian aristocracy, Tolstoy's early life was marked by privilege, but his experiences in the Crimean War and his subsequent travels profoundly shaped his worldview. He is best known for his epic novels that delve into the complexities of Russian society, human nature, and moral philosophy.Tolstoy's literary contributions extend beyond his novels; he was also a prolific essayist, playwright, and short story writer. His works often grapple with themes of existential angst, the search for meaning, and the critique of social institutions. His later years were marked by a spiritual awakening that led him to adopt a form of Christian anarchism, advocating for nonviolent resistance and simple living. This ideological shift influenced prominent figures like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.Tolstoy's personal life was as tumultuous as his literary career. His marriage to Sophia Behrs was both a source of inspiration and strife, marked by intense intellectual collaboration and profound personal conflict. His radical ideas on education, pacifism, and social justice often put him at odds with both the Russian Orthodox Church and the Tsarist regime, leading to his excommunication in 1901.Despite the controversies, Tolstoy's legacy endures. His exploration of the human condition, his revolutionary ideas on morality and society, and his influence on contemporary writers and thinkers make him a figure of enduring fascination. His life and works continue to resonate, offering timeless insights into the human experience.
