Guerra y Paz

Autor: Leon Tolstoi

Número de Páginas: 464

La historia de la gigantesca nación rusa está colmada de sucesos impactantes. Una de esas etapas es el periodo final de la decadencia de los zares, cuando las diferencias sociales que determinan la riqueza exagerada y la pobreza rampante, eran supremamente evidentes en la vida de los rusos. En la novela titulada Guerra y Paz, que ha sido considerada por especialistas literarios como una joya de la escritura universal, el célebre escritor León Tolstoi relata que mientras la aristocracia de Moscú y San Petersburgo vivía en medio de una opulencia desmedida, pero desde luego ajena a todo lo que acontecía en el exterior de su burbuja de cristal que los alejaba de la realidad, Napoleón había triunfado en Austerlitz y preparaba sus tropas para invadir a Rusia. El trasiego de la obra deja al lector impactado al descubrir realidades que solo un escritor como Tolstoi podría desentrañar de esta compleja época de guerras, intrigas y ambiciones geopolíticas de dominación mundial.

Leon Petrażycki

Leon Petrażycki

Autor: Edoardo Fittipaldi , A. Javier Treviño

Número de Páginas: 290

The early 20th-century Russo-Polish legal thinker Leon Petrażycki (1867–1931) developed a comprehensive social psychology of law. Because only a fraction of his work is available in English, Petrażycki is today little known and seldom discussed in the Anglophone countries. This volume aims to remedy this deficit by introducing Petrażycki’s life and work specifically to an English-speaking audience. It is intended as a reappraisal of some of his views in the context of current advancements. This collection of 12 chapters produced by a panel of international scholars from various social science fields will be useful to a new generation of students formulating their own theories and research on socio-legal behavior. Leon Petrażycki: Law, Emotions, Society will be of interest to students and scholars of sociology of law, socio-legal studies, and philosophy of law

Tolstoy

Tolstoy

Autor: Ernest Joseph Simmons

Número de Páginas: 271

Tolstoy’s fame as one of the world’s greatest novelists has never been in doubt, but the importance of his views on the social, moral and religious issues of his time is not so widely recognised. This study, first published in 1973, presents an introduction to the historical and cultural background of Tolstoy’s lifetime, then going on to consider the major events of his developing personality as a writer and reformer. As well as considering the famous novels and literary criticism, Simmons treats his educational theories and practice, famine relief work, spiritual crises and religious, social and moral beliefs, as reflected in controversial writings such as What I Believe, What Then Must We Do? and The Kingdom of God Is Within You. He also investigates Tolstoy’s involvement in government, war and revolution, and the relevance of his reformist views in the contemporary world.

Tolstoy and the Genesis of War and Peace

Tolstoy and the Genesis of "War and Peace"

Autor: Kathryn B. Feuer

Número de Páginas: 316

Kathryn B. Feuer offers remarkable insights into Leo Tolstoy's creative process while he wrote War and Peace. She follows the novel through countless drafts and notes, illuminating its connection to earlier, unpublished, novels and to crucial new sources, both European and Russian. A novelist herself, Feuer explores the problems of character development, narrative voice, genre, and structure that Tolstoy ultimately resolved so brilliantly.

Political Economy from Below

Political Economy from Below

Autor: Rob Knowles

Número de Páginas: 449

Communitarian anarchism is a generic form of socialism that denies the need for a state or any other authority over the individual from above, and which requires absolute belief that the individual cannot exist outside of a community of others. This book suggests that the communitarian anarchists of the nineteenth century developed and articulated a distinct tradition of economic thought. The period of this study begins with the first major writing of the French communitarian anarchist, Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, in 1840 and ends with the temporary burial of anarchist theorizing at the beginning of the First World War in 1914. However, he tradition of communitarian anarchist economic thought did not end in 1914. The economic thought explored in this book provides a fresh perception of the fragmentation evident in many societies today, especially where there is a substantial "informal economy."

Tolstoy's Major Fiction

Tolstoy's Major Fiction

Autor: Edward Wasiolek

Número de Páginas: 264

"Edward Wasiolek, after much valuable work on Dostoevsky, has now written one of the best books on Tolstoy in recent decades. This may be in part because of his preoccupation with Tolstoy's most challenging contemporary, and the resulting sense of their unlikeness in a common pursuit. But there are other, unspeculative reasons. Few studies of Tolstoy have been so carefully pondered and so firmly organized to convince; and not so many show the flexibility and variety of its approach. Wasiolek proposes an essentially simple and consistent reading, but he advances it with subtlety and discretion."—Henry Gifford, Times Literary Supplement

Tolstoy

Tolstoy

Autor: A. N. Wilson

Número de Páginas: 445

A. N. Wilson's Tolstoy is a highly intelligent and accessible biography of the most famous writer in the Russian canon. In this biography of Count Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy, A.N. Wilson narrates the complex drama of the writer's life: his childhood of aristocratic privilege but emotional deprivation, his discovery of his literary genius after aimless years of gambling and womanizing, and his increasingly disastrous marriage. Wilson sweeps away the long-held belief that Tolstoy's works were the exact mirror of his life, and instead traces the roots of Tolstoy's art to his relationship with God, with women, and with Russia. He also recreates the world that shaped the great novelist's life and art - the turmoil of ideas and politics in 19th-century Russia and the literary renaissance that made Tolstoy's work possible. Magisterial... Wilson has an advantage over a mere biographer, looking not to judge his subject but to fully understand the inspirations behind his great works - Daily Express

Intercourse

Intercourse

Autor: Andrea Dworkin

Número de Páginas: 310

Andrea Dworkin, once called "Feminism's Malcolm X," has been worshipped, reviled, criticized, and analyzed-but never ignored. The power of her writing, the passion of her ideals, and the ferocity of her intellect have spurred the arguments and activism of two generations of feminists. Now the book that she's best known for-in which she provoked the argument that ultimately split apart the feminist movement-is being reissued for the young women and men of the twenty-first century. Intercourse enraged as many readers as it inspired when it was first published in 1987. In it, Dworkin argues that in a male supremacist society, sex between men and women constitutes a central part of women's subordination to men. (This argument was quickly-and falsely-simplified to "all sex is rape" in the public arena, adding fire to Dworkin's already radical persona.) In her introduction to this twentieth-anniversary edition of Intercourse, Ariel Levy, the author of Female Chauvinist Pigs, discusses the circumstances of Dworkin's untimely death in the spring of 2005, and the enormous impact of her life and work. Dworkin's argument, she points out, is the stickiest question of feminism: Can a woman...

Creating Literature Out of Life

Creating Literature Out of Life

Autor: Doris Alexander

Número de Páginas: 265

An exploration of the creative process in four classic works: Death in Venice, Treasure Island, The Rub&áiy&át of Mar Khayy&ám, and War and Peace. Creating Literature Out of Life examines four very dissimilar masterpieces and their authors in search of evidence that will answer some of the many questions in the great mystery of creativity. Crossing boundaries of period, nation, and genre, the study looks into the &"why&" and &"how&" of the creation of Thomas Mann's Death in Venice, Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, Edward FitzGerald's The Rub&áiy&át of Mar Khayy&ám, and Lev Tolstoy's War and Peace. Doris Alexander finds that each of these works was compelled by an urgent life problem of its author, some of them partly conscious, others completely unconscious, which worked in harmony and counterpoint with the author's conscious theme to shape his work. She traces an interconnected nexus of memories&—personal experiences, ideas, readings&—that came alive in response to the author's problem and served as a reservoir out of which his characters, his images, his story line, and the emotional tone of his work emerged. Creating Literature Out of Life tells the exciting...

Léon de Rosny 1837-1914

Léon de Rosny 1837-1914

Autor: Collectif

Número de Páginas: 441

Ethnologue, premier japonologue en France, sinologue, mayaniste, spécialiste des religions orientales et épistémologue, Rosny est un découvreur, un véritable pionnier de ces sciences dans la seconde moitié du xixe siècle. C'est également un travailleur infatigable, boulimique de connaissances et un « entreprenant » impénitent. Hors cursus classique, il se construit une remarquable éducation éclectique. Dès l’enfance, il manifeste une extraordinaire capacité d’assimilation, démontrée plus tard par sa maîtrise de plus d’une quinzaine de langues et de leurs civilisations. Chercheur et philologue, il sera aussi professeur, traducteur, interprète, journaliste, photographe, dessinateur, éditeur, imprimeur et... relieur. Admiré même s’il est controversé, reconnu au cœur d’un réseau international de savants, Rosny a toujours eu la passion de transmettre ses idées, ses savoirs et ceux de ses contemporains. Cent ans après sa mort, ce sont cet itinéraire rare et cette œuvre surprenante qu’il nous est donné de découvrir, mettre en perspective et approfondir.

Tolstoy or Dostoevsky

Tolstoy or Dostoevsky

Autor: George Steiner

Número de Páginas: 239

George Steiner's Tolstoy or Dostoevsky has become a classic among scholars of Russian literature. An essay in poetic and philosophic criticism that bears mainly on the Russian masters, Tolstoy or Dostoevsky deals also with larger themes: the epic tradition extending from Homer to Tolstoy; the continuity of a "tragic world view" from Oedipus Rex to King Lear and The Brothers Karamazov; the contrasts between the epic and dramatic modes, between irreconcilably opposed views of God and of history.

Tolstói o Dostoievski

Tolstói o Dostoievski

Autor: George Steiner

Número de Páginas: 384

A través de una rigurosa investigación de los dos grandes escritores de la novela rusa, George Steiner analiza, con gran sabiduría crítica, dos tradiciones literarias seculares: la de la épica, que abarca un largo recorrido vital desde Homero hasta Tolstoi, y la de la visión trágica del mundo, cuya continuidad se desarrolla desde Edipo Rey hasta El rey Lear y Los hermanos Karamazov. Dos visiones opuestas de Dios y del mundo sirven a Steiner para ir esclareciendo toda la evolución de la novela europea y norteamericana, a través de sus figuras más relevantes, porque sólo usando los superlativos, las grandes obras maestras, podemos llegar a entender la esencia de la novela, tan empañada de dogmatismos cerrados y limitadores.

Class War

Class War

Autor: Mark Steven

Número de Páginas: 305

A bold new history of the global class war A thrilling and vivid work of history, Class War weaves together literature and politics to chart the making and unmaking of social class through revolutionary combat. In a narrative that spans the globe and more than two centuries of history, Mark Steven traces the history of class war from the Haitian Revolution to Black Lives Matter. Surveying the literature of revolution, from the poetry of Shelley and Byron to the novels of Émile Zola and Jack London, exploring the writings of Frantz Fanon, Che Guevara, and Assata Shakur, Class War reveals the interplay between military action and the politics of class, showing how solidarity flourishes in times of conflict. Written with verve and ranging across diverse historical settings, Class War traverses industrial battles, guerrilla insurgencies, and anticolonial resistance, as well as large-scale combat operations waged against capitalism's regimes and its interstate system. In our age of economic crisis, ecological catastrophe, and planetary unrest, Steven tells the stories of those whose actions will help guide future militants toward a revolutionary horizon.

Orthodoxy, Modernity, and Authenticity

Orthodoxy, Modernity, and Authenticity

Autor: Heather Bailey

Número de Páginas: 367

Ernest Renan was one of the most renowned European intellectuals of the second half of the nineteenth century. Yet, the impact of his most popular work, Life of Jesus, has been underestimated when not altogether ignored. While commonplace now, the idea that Jesus was merely human was at one time a novelty, with significant socio-political, cultural, and religious implications. A case study in the Russian encounter with modernity, Orthodoxy, Modernity, and Authenticity: The Reception of Ernest Renan’s “Life of Jesus” in Russia demonstrates that Renan’s book has had long-lasting and broad appeal in Russia because it presents an alternative to a strictly materialist worldview on the one hand, and an Orthodox worldview on the other. Renan offered his readers the possibility to accept the tenets of modernity while still retaining both an admiration for the importance of religion in history and a sense of religious feeling or even belief in a higher religious ideal. Assessments of Renan’s alternative belief system, whether positive, negative, or mixed, were often simultaneously evaluations of the moral, socio-political, and spiritual condition of European society in general...

Aging, Death, and the Completion of Being

Aging, Death, and the Completion of Being

Autor: David D. Van Tassel

Número de Páginas: 316

While the problems of aging are being studied with microscope, computer, and questionnaire as a medical, social, and economic challenge, these essays introduce the humanistic perspective. The assumption behind this work is that in history, literature, folklore, and art we have the record of centuries of human experience to enhance our present understanding of aging, old age, and death. Growing old is a process that occurs in every person every minute, every hour that passes. But if aging does not begin on the day of retirement at the age of sixty-five, what is the definition of old age? Is it chronologically; physiologically, mentally, or culturally determined? Old age may not be a phase of life as easily identified as adolescence. As our population continues to grow older we are ever more in need of greater sensitivity to the joys and tragedies of old age. In recent years, however, our view of old age has been clouded by our negative feelings about death. Old age has become inextricably associated with death. It was not always so: until a lower infant mortality rate, better nutrition, and a higher standard of living so greatly increased our chances of surviving into old age,...
