| Summary | "Das Leben Tolstois" by Romain Rolland is a biographical account written in the early 20th century. The work explores the life and struggles of the renowned Russian author Leo Tolstoy, delving into his complex character, his relationships with other influential figures of his time, and his philosophical and moral dilemmas. This book likely appeals to readers interested in literature, philosophy, and the life of one of the most significant literary figures in history. At the start of the narrative, the author presents an introduction to Tolstoy's life, highlighting the dichotomies that defined him—his role as a revered author and a tortured soul seeking truth and meaning. The opening sections provide insights into Tolstoy's early life, his family background, and his intellectual struggles, as expressed in letters and conversations, particularly with Rolland himself. The text captures Tolstoy’s grappling with existential questions and his quest for a life that aligns with his beliefs, establishing a foundation for understanding his influence on literature and humanity at large.
