1899. With illustrations from the Universal picture starring John Boles and Lupe Velez. Russian author, considered one of the greatest of all novelists. Tolstoy's major works include War and Peace and Anna Karenina. The plot of Resurrection is simple enough, and is based on a story Tolstoy read in a newspaper. Prince Nekhlyudov is rich and idle. Called to serve on a jury, he recognizes the accused woman as a girl he seduced some years earlier. The seduction ruined her; rejected by those who had brought her up, she was reduced to prostitution. Though innocent of the murder she is accused of, Maslova is nevertheless found guilty through a legal error (the jury omits to add the formula that she was innocent of the intention to kill as well as the actual act). Overcome with remorse, seeing himself as the cause of Maslova's degradation, Nekhlyudov vows to reform his life. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.

For some weeks Father Sergius had been living with one persistent thought: whether he was right in accepting the position in which he had not so much placed himself as been placed by the Archimandrite and the Abbot. That position had begun after the recovery of the fourteen-year-old boy. From that time, with each month, week, and day that passed, Sergius felt his own inner life wasting away and being replaced by external life.

My Religion is a book written by the famous Russian author Leo Tolstoy. In this book, Tolstoy discusses his personal beliefs and philosophy of life, which he developed after a long period of spiritual and intellectual searching. The book is divided into three parts, with each part exploring a different aspect of Tolstoy's faith. In the first part, Tolstoy describes his journey towards a more meaningful and authentic faith, which he found by rejecting the formal and institutionalized religion of his upbringing. He argues that true religion is not about following dogmas and rituals, but about living a life of love, compassion, and moral integrity. The second part of the book focuses on Tolstoy's interpretation of the teachings of Jesus Christ. He argues that Jesus was not a divine figure, but a human being who taught a message of radical love and nonviolence. Tolstoy suggests that Jesus' teachings have been distorted and corrupted by the Church, and that it is up to individuals to rediscover the true meaning of his message. Finally, in the third part of the book, Tolstoy discusses the practical implications of his faith. He argues that true religion requires individuals to live a simple and humble life, free from materialism and consumerism. He also advocates for social and political reform, arguing that true religion requires individuals to work towards a more just and equitable society. Overall, My Religion is a powerful and thought-provoking book that offers a unique perspective on spirituality and faith. Tolstoy's ideas continue to resonate with readers today, and the book remains a classic of religious literature.1885. The doctrine of simplification has many adherents in Russia, and when, some time ago, it was announced that the author of �������War and Peace������� had retired to the country and was leading a life of frugality and unaffected toil in the cultivation of his estates, the surprise to his own countrymen could not have been very great. In this book, he tells us how the decision was formed. He bases his conclusions on a direct and literal interpretation of the teachings of Jesus as expressed in the Sermon on the Mount.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
