Om den här e-boken

A new translation into modern American English directly from the original Russian manuscript. This edition contains an Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Tolstoy's life and works, and a glossary of philosophic terminology used throughout Tolstoy's literature and philosophy. Leo Tolstoy's "Confession" is a deeply introspective and philosophical work in which the renowned author recounts his spiritual journey and search for meaning and truth. Published in 1884, this autobiographical essay explores Tolstoy's struggle with existential questions and his dissatisfaction with the materialistic pursuits that dominated his earlier life. Through a frank exploration of his inner conflicts, the book explores the timeless themes of morality, faith and the human condition. "Confession" has immense literary value as a masterpiece of introspection, offering readers profound insights into the mind of one of history's greatest writers. Its historical impact lies in its influence on the subsequent development of Tolstoy's spiritual philosophy, which would eventually inspire movements such as Tolstoyan Christianity and non-violent resistance. This classic remains a timeless exploration of the inner workings of the human soul and continues to resonate with readers seeking deeper understanding and meaning in life.
