Over dit e-boek
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. In this 1884 essay, Leo Tolstoy candidly examines the foundations of his faith, reflecting on his evolving beliefs and spiritual convictions. Tolstoy's deep introspection leads him to question orthodox religious dogma and to embrace a more personal, moral and ethical understanding of spirituality. "What Is My Faith represents a significant departure from traditional religious doctrine and demonstrates Tolstoy's literary brilliance in communicating complex philosophical ideas in an accessible manner. The importance of this work lies in its role as a catalyst for philosophical and religious discussion, challenging readers to examine their own beliefs and seek a deeper meaning to life. Throughout history, this thought-provoking essay has influenced spiritual seekers and philosophers alike, leaving a lasting impact on the study of faith and the search for truth.
