Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La novela se abre con un breve preludio en el que, al volver de un paseo, el narrador, con gran dificultad, recoge �un magn�fico cardo en flor de la especie que llamamos cardo t�rtaro�. El cardo es ya el impl�cito emblema de Hadj� Murat: �Cu�nta energ�a y vitalidad! �Con qu� tenacidad defendi� su vida y qu� cara la vendi�! Hadj� Murat es la excepci�n m�s grandiosa del �ltimo Tolstoi, pues ah� el viejo cham�n rivaliza con Shakespeare. La extraordinaria facultad de Shakespeare a la hora de dotar de una existencia exuberante incluso a los personajes m�s secundarios, a la hora de henchirlos de vida, es inteligentemente absorbida por Tolstoi. Todo el mundo en Hadj� Murat posee una v�vida individualidad: Shamil, el zar Nicol�s, Avd�iev, el desdichado soldado ruso muerto en una escaramuza, el pr�ncipe Vorontsov, a quien Hadj� Murat se entrega; Poltoratski, comandante de una compa��a. El cat�logo parece interminable, como en las obras mayores de Shakespeare. �C�mo puede la ficci�n ser sobrenatural y natural al mismo tiempo? Supongo que podr�a arg�irse que en las ficciones m�s supremas se funden esos atributos contradictorios. Pero no existen muchas novelas cortas capaces de reconciliar desconcertantes antinomias. Hadj� Murat es tan extra�a como la Odisea y tan familiar como Hemingway. Aunque Hadj� Murat tambi�n vive y muere como un h�roe �pico arcaico, re�ne en s� mismo todas las virtudes y ninguno de los defectos de Odiseo, Aquiles y Eneas. Harold Bloom, El canon occidental

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'How truth thickens and deepens when it migrates from didactic fable to the raw experience of a visceral awakening is one of the thrills of Tolstoy's stories' Sharon Cameron in her preface to Hadji Murad and Other Stories The stories in this volume exemplify Leo Tolstoy's literary style of capturing very real, very human experiences. The settings that are found here are wide-ranging and textured, but these characters all face up to the conditions of humanity that govern our happiness, the existence of morality, kindness, compassion and equality. The title story shows Tolstoy's attempt to preserve the horrors of war; its inherent destruction that cannot be undone. A story that is written with a painstaking precision.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The narrator prefaces the story with his comments on a crushed, but still living thistle he finds in a field (a symbol for the main character), after which he begins to tell the story of Hadji Murat, a successful and famed separatist guerrilla who falls out with his own commander and eventually sides with the Russians in hope of saving his family.

Er entzieht sich der drohenden Verhaftung durch die Tschetschenen im Dorfe durch eine waghalsige Flucht und unterwirft sich dem F�rsten Woronzow. Letzterer ist der Sohn des kaiserlichen Statthalters in Tiflis. Hadschi Murat beteuert vor dem Statthalter, bis zum letzten Blutstropfen wolle er unter russischer F�hrung gegen Schamil k�mpfen, doch er m�sse vorerst noch warten. Schamil halte Hadschi Murats Familie - die Frau, die Mutter und sechs Kinder - in den Bergen fest und werde die Seinen, sobald Hadschi Murat angreift, umbringen. Im Stab des Tifliser Statthalters vermuten einige Offiziere, der �berl�ufer wolle sie t�uschen; es komme ihm nur auf die Erkundung der Schwachpunkte in den russischen Stellungen an.
Book Synopsis Anna Karenina (Movie Tie-in Edition) by : Leo Tolstoy
Download or read book Anna Karenina (Movie Tie-in Edition) written by Leo Tolstoy and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 978 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The official movie tie-in to the major motion picture starring Keira Knightly, Jude Law, Emily Watson, and Aaron Johnson, directed by Joe Wright. This ebook edition also includes the screenplay by Tom Stoppard. Leo Tolstoy’s classic story of doomed love is one of the most admired novels in world literature. Generations of readers have been enthralled by his magnificent heroine, the unhappily married Anna Karenina, and her tragic affair with dashing Count Vronsky. In their world frivolous liaisons are commonplace, but Anna and Vronsky’s consuming passion makes them a target for scorn and leads to Anna’s increasing isolation. The heartbreaking trajectory of their relationship contrasts sharply with the colorful swirl of friends and family members who surround them, especially the newlyweds Kitty and Levin, who forge a touching bond as they struggle to make a life together. Anna Karenina is a masterpiece not only because of the unforgettable woman at its core and the stark drama of her fate, but also because it explores and illuminates the deepest questions about how to live a fulfilled life. Translated by Louise and Aylmer Maude

Book excerpt: What Is Love? “It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness. A handsome woman talks nonsense, you listen and hear not nonsense but cleverness. She says and does horrid things, and you see only charm. And if a handsome woman does not say stupid or horrid things, you at once persuade yourself that she is wonderfully clever and moral.” - Leo Tolstoy, The Kreutzer Sonata Upon hearing a woman arguing that marriage should never be arranged and always be subject to love, Pozdnyshev asks: ‘What is love?’ He condemns the argument saying that love doesn’t last forever and can quickly turn into hatred. What is Pozdnyshev’s story? Why doesn’t he believe in love? Xist Publishing is a digital-first publisher.

Book Synopsis A History of the World by : Andrew Marr
Download or read book A History of the World written by Andrew Marr and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2012-09-27 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fresh, exciting and vividly readable, this is popular history at its very best. Our understanding of world history is changing, as new discoveries are made on all the continents and old prejudices are being challenged. In this truly global journey, political journalist Andrew Marr revisits some of the traditional epic stories, from classical Greece and Rome to the rise of Napoleon, but surrounds them with less familiar material, from Peru to the Ukraine, China to the Caribbean. He looks at cultures that have failed and vanished, as well as the origins of today’s superpowers, and finds surprising echoes and parallels across vast distances and epochs. A History of the World is a book about the great change-makers of history and their times, people such as Cleopatra, Genghis Khan, Galileo and Mao, but it is also a book about us. For ‘the better we understand how rulers lose touch with reality, or why revolutions produce dictators more often than they produce happiness, or why some parts of the world are richer than others, the easier it is to understand our own times.’

Download or read book The Modern Library Collection Essential Russian Novels 4-Book Bundle written by Leo Tolstoy and published by Modern Library. This book was released on 2012-09-10 with total page 3824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The enduring genius of Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoevsky shines through in this special eBook collection that includes four classic Russian novels—each one recognized as a masterpiece of world literature. ANNA KARENINA “One of the greatest love stories in world literature.”—Vladimir Nabokov Anna Karenina is Tolstoy’s classic tale of love and adultery set against the backdrop of high society in Moscow and Saint Petersburg. The rich and complex story charts the disastrous course of a love affair between Anna, a beautiful married woman, and Count Vronsky, a wealthy army officer. CRIME AND PUNISHMENT “Crime and Punishment has upon most readers an impact as immediate and obvious and full as the news of murder next door.”—R. P. Blackmur The story of the murder committed by Raskolnikov and his guilt and atonement, Dostoevsky’s brilliant novel is without doubt the most gripping and illuminating account ever written of a crime of repugnance and despair and the consequences that inevitably arise from it. THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV “The Brothers Karamazov stands as the culmination of Dostoevsky’s art.”—The Washington Post Book World Dostoevsky’s crowning achievement is a tale of patricide and family rivalry that embodies the moral and spiritual dissolution of an entire society. To Dostoevsky, it captured the quintessence of Russian character in all its exaltation, compassion, and profligacy. WAR AND PEACE “There remains the greatest of all novelists—for what else can we call the author of War and Peace?”—Virginia Woolf Often called the greatest novel ever written, War and Peace is at once an epic of the Napoleonic Wars, a philosophical study, and a celebration of the Russian spirit. Tolstoy’s genius is seen clearly in the multitude of characters in this massive chronicle—all of them fully realized and equally memorable.
