ABOUT THE BOOK: The Man Who Was Dead, The Cause of it All, and The Light That Shines in the Darkness are the three plays left by Tolstoy for publication after his death. The Light That Shines in the Darkness -- the last of Tolstoy's plays, was left unfinished. In Russia it is prohibited on account of its allusions to the refusal of military service. Yet it is in some ways the most interesting of Tolstoy's posthumous works. It is obviously not strictly autobiographical, for Tolstoy was not assassinated as the hero of the piece is, nor was his daughter engaged to be married to a young prince who refused military service. But like some of his other writings, the play is semi-autobiographical. In it, not only has Tolstoy utilised personal experiences, but more than that, he answers the question so often asked: Why, holding his views, did he not free himself from property before he grew old? ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy (Russian: Лев Николаевич Толстой; most appropriately used Liev Tolstoy; commonly Leo Tolstoy in Anglophone countries) was a Russian writer who primarily wrote novels and short stories. Later in life, he also wrote plays and essays. His two most famous works, the novels War and Peace and Anna Karenina, are acknowledged as two of the greatest novels of all time and a pinnacle of realist fiction. Many consider Tolstoy to have been one of the world's greatest novelists. Tolstoy is equally known for his complicated and paradoxical persona and for his extreme moralistic and ascetic views, which he adopted after a moral crisis and spiritual awakening in the 1870s, after which he also became noted as a moral thinker and social reformer. His literal interpretation of the ethical teachings of Jesus, centering on the Sermon on the Mount, caused him in later life to become a fervent Christian anarchist and anarcho-pacifist. His ideas on nonviolent resistance, expressed in such works as The Kingdom of God Is Within You, were to have a profound impact on such pivotal twentieth-century figures as Mohandas Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.

Book excerpt: "The Light Shines in Darkness" is a play by Leo Tolstoy set in Russian society. The narrative revolves around the challenges faced by a wealthy family and their conflicts over morality, religious belief, and the search for truth. The moral dilemmas arise during the process of self-discovery and personal transformation of Nikolai Ivanovich Saryntsov, the patriarch of a family with seven children. Elements of love, hate, forgiveness, and sacrifice are skillfully interwoven, reflecting the author's ethical and social concerns. The play highlights internal struggles and attempts to navigate the often harsh realities of their lives. Although Tolstoy died before completing this play, he left a summary of how he intended to finish it, making the reading complete for each character. **The Light Shines in Darkness** offers a glimpse into Tolstoy's ability to create complex characters and situations that provoke reflection on universal questions of human existence.

Download or read book The Man Who Was Dead And The Cause Of It All two Plays written by Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy and published by International Law & Taxation Pub. This book was released on 2004-11-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the three plays left by Tolstoy for publication after his death, one is a short two-act Temperance play called in English The Cause of it All (the Russian title is a colloquialism difficult to render, but "From it all evil flows" is as near as one can get to it). It does not claim to be a piece of much importance, but if ever it is staged, it should act easily and well. Another of these posthumous plays is The Man Who Was Dead (The Live Corpse), a powerful piece, in which Tolstoy introduces one of those gipsy choirs which had such an influence on him (and still more on his brother Sergius) when he was a young man of twenty to twenty-three, before he went to the Caucasus and entered the army. The last of Tolstoy's plays, The Light That Shines in Darkness, was left unfinished.
