War and Peace

Count Leo Tolstoy was born on September 9, 1828, in Yasnaya Polyana, Russia. Orphaned at nine, he was brought up by an elderly aunt and educated by French tutors until he matriculated at Kazan University in 1844. In 1847, he gave up his studies and, after several aimless years, volunteered for military duty, serving as a junior officer in the Crimean War before retiring in 1857. In 1862, Tolstoy married Sophie Behrs, a marriage that was to become, for him, bitterly unhappy. His diary, started in 1847, was used for self-study and self-criticism; it served as the source from which he drew much of the material that appeared not only in his great novels War and Peace (1869) and Anna Karenina (1877), but also in his shorter works. Seeking religious justification for his life, Tolstoy evolved a new Christianity based upon his own interpretation of the Gospels. Yasnaya Polyana became a mecca for his many converts. At the age of eighty-two, the writer’s health failed him in Astapovo, Russia, where he died on November 20, 1910.

Antony Briggs has translated widely from the Russian, especially Pushkin, and is the author of several critical books on Russian literature. Orlando Figes is the author of A People's Tragedy: The Russian Revolution, 1891-1924 and, most recently, Natasha's Dance: A Cultural History of Russia.

At a glittering society party in St Petersburg in 1805, conversations are dominated by the prospect of war. Terror swiftly engulfs the country as Napoleon's army marches on Russia, and the lives of three young people are changed for ever. The stories of quixotic Pierre, cynical Andrey and impetuous Natasha interweave with a huge cast, from aristocrats and peasants to soldiers and Napoleon himself. In War and Peace (1863-9), Tolstoy entwines grand themes - conflict and love, birth and death, free will and fate - with unforgettable scenes of nineteenth-century Russia, to create a magnificent epic of human life in all its imperfection and grandeur.

Anthony Briggs's superb translation combines stirring, accessible prose with fidelity to Tolstoy's original, while Orlando Figes's afterword discusses the novel's vast scope and depiction of Russian identity. This edition also includes appendices, notes, a list of prominent characters and maps.

比较希腊神话和《圣经》中的英雄形象,不难看出二者的差异。与希腊神话中拥有强大个人意志甚至敢于反抗众神的英雄相比,《圣经》中的英雄多为上帝的选民,他们尊敬上帝并为上帝所服务,因而拥有超凡的神力。但一旦疏忽了自己的责任,就会失去上帝的庇佑,从而失去力量。如...

1 一八五六年,老沙皇尼古拉一世服毒自杀,新沙皇亚历山大二世即位,新政使人们对尼古拉一世登基时发生的十二月党人起义又产生了新的热情,但是一贯反对权威的托尔斯泰对“挖出这些老古董”很不以为然,结果被比他大十岁的屠格涅夫用书信狠狠地教训了一番,这也使他对这段历史...

昨天终于把《战争与和平》看完了。十年前在东北师大,我曾写下“经冬无雪懒读书”的句子。保定到现在为止都还没有下过雪,所以我很愿意为我的懒堕找一个比较文化的借口。但也只是借口。事实上,前面的部分我一直读得很快,所以拖了这么久,都是因为尾声第二部。托尔斯泰是一个...

终于找到经典名著的正确打开方式,先看电影或电视剧再挑战原作。2012年BBC迷你剧选角精准也把时代背景还原得不错,赏心悦目顺带把主角名字背一遍(其实没那么难记)。 只是书中最精彩的心理描写和哲学思辨实在拍不出来,只有有耐心读完四卷1200页外加150页史上最长后记的人才能体会。好像前面的所有情节和人物全都是为了演示作者关于时代与个人命运的思考而设置的。而这些思考在170年后的今天仍然重要,仍然悬而未决。

托尔斯泰发表这本小说只比曹雪芹写完红楼梦晚一年
