Download or read book Remarkable Russian Women in Pictures Prose and Poetry written by Marcelline Hutton and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Russian women of the late 19th and early 20th centuries tried to find authentic religious, marital, professional, and political experiences. Some very remarkable ones found these things in varying degrees, while others sought unsuccessfully but no less desperately to transcend the generations-old restrictions imposed by church, state, village, class, and gender. Like a Slavic Downton Abbey, this book tells the stories, not just of their outward lives, but of their hearts and minds, their voices and dreams, their amazing accomplishments against overwhelming odds, and their roles as feminists and avant-gardists in shaping modern Russia and, indeed, the twentieth century in the West. In their own words and images, and each in their own unique way, these remarkable Russian women construct a fascinating tapestry of a culture at the crossroads of modernity and on the brink of catastrophe.

Download or read book The Final Struggle written by Countess Alexandra Tolstoy and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harmony was not the leitmotif of the Tolstoys's marriage. In wedlock for forty-eight years, some of them happy, many of them turbulent, the couple had reached the nadir of mutual exasperation in 1910, the final year of Tolstoy's life. No biography could illustrate this more graphically than these diaries for that fateful year. In addition to the Countess's own diary and day book, salient extracts are also reproduced from not only from Leo Tolstoy's diary but his private diary (For Myself Alone) as well. There is more. It seems that almost everyone in the household had a sense of history and was recording their own observations of the domestic disintegration. The extensive footnotes quote liberally from, among others, Valentin Bulgakov (Tolstoy's secretary), Alexander Goldenweiser (pianist and close friend of Tolstoy), Vladimir Chertkov (Tolstoy's leading disciple, executor of his will, and the most controversial person in the book - the Countess's bête noire) and the eldest son, Sergey Tolstoy. The end is well-known: Tolstoy finally flees the family estate, Yasnaya Polyana, only to die shortly afterwards in the station-master's house at Astapovo. 'Never, never marry, my dear fellow! That's my advice: never marry till you can say to yourself that you have done all you are capable of, and until you have ceased to love the woman of your choice and have seen her plainly as she is, or else you will make a cruel an irrevocable mistake.' So says Prince Andrew to Pierre in War and Peace, but it could be the epigraph for this book. By all means see the film, The Last Station, but read this book as well.
Download or read book Tolstoy s Major Fiction written by Edward Wasiolek and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1978 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "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
