The Tolstoy, Leo, graf 1828-1910 creator Chertkov, V. G. (Vladimir Grigorevich) 1854-1936 Shokor-Trotsky, Constantine Strunsky, Rose text utu 2014 monographic en 1 online resource : multiple file formats "The Journal of Leo Tolstoi (First Volume—1895-1899)" by graf Leo Tolstoy is a collection of personal reflections and thoughts written in the late 19th century. The journal explores Tolstoy's inner dialogues on morality, spirituality, and social issues, offering a glimpse into the mind of one of literature's most profound thinkers during a time of great upheaval in Russia. Through this work, readers can engage with Tolstoy's evolving perspectives on love, the meaning of life, and humanity's relationship to God." "The opening of the journal introduces us to Tolstoy's contemplative nature as he grapples with the laws governing both the material world and human existence. He reflects on the struggle between the "lower" laws of materialism and the "higher" spiritual laws such as love and conscience, which he views as intrinsic to human freedom. Through observations from his life at Yasnaya Polyana, Tolstoy shares snippets of his daily thoughts, interactions, and the spiritual realizations that guide his writing and living. This early section sets the foundation for the philosophical inquiries that will characterize the rest of the journal, enveloped in his personal experiences and evolving understanding of life."
