Despre autor
Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, more commonly known as Leo Tolstoy, was a towering figure in the field of world literature, renowned for his complex characters and intricate plots that delve into the human condition. Born on September 9, 1828, in the Tula Province of Russia, Tolstoy hailed from an aristocratic family. His contributions to literature span across numerous genres, but he is particularly celebrated for his novels, which include the seminal works 'War and Peace' (1869) and 'Anna Karenina' (1877), where he displayed a profound understanding of the intricacies of society and the human psyche. 'Two Hussars,' one of his shorter works, contrasts the moral decline between two generations, encapsulating the multifaceted nature of his oeuvre that often reflects on moral and spiritual themes. Tolstoy's literary style is characterized by its narrative depth and its capacity to explore philosophical concepts through the lens of ordinary life. Notably, his ideas on nonviolent resistance influenced twentieth-century figures such as Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. Tolstoy's impact on literature is undisputed, and his works continue to garner acclaim for their artistic and intellectual resilience. He passed away on November 20, 1910, but his legacy endures in the annals of literary history.
