Tolstoy

Klappentext Professor Christian is concerned to show what is characteristic about Tolstoy's fiction in this study. Zusammenfassung This is a critical introduction to the novels and short stories of Tolstoy! treating them in their own right as works of literature! not as biographical evidence or contributions to a philosophical system. The heart of the book! inevitably! is in the examination of War and Peace and Anna Karenina! but most of Tolstoy's other fiction is also discussed. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface; 1. First beginnings; 2.
