Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Tolstoy: A Play in Seven Scenes' is a compelling biographical drama by Henry Bailey Stevens that explores the complex life and philosophical struggles of the legendary Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy. Structured across seven evocative scenes, the play delves into the internal and external conflicts that defined Tolstoy's later years, particularly his quest for spiritual truth and his tumultuous relationship with his family and the state.Stevens masterfully captures the essence of a man caught between his aristocratic status and his radical commitment to non-violence and asceticism. Through sharp dialogue and poignant characterizations, the work offers a dramatic window into the psyche of the author of 'War and Peace' and 'Anna Karenina.' This play serves as both a literary tribute and a profound exploration of the burdens of genius and the pursuit of a moral life. It is an essential read for those interested in historical drama, literary biography, and the enduring legacy of one of the world's greatest thinkers.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
