Omschrijving

In his novella "Master and Man," Leo Tolstoy explores the profound themes of morality, master-servant dynamics, and the redemptive power of selflessness set against the harsh backdrop of a snow-covered landscape. Written in 1895, this multi-layered narrative makes use of a stark, realist style, imbued with philosophical inquiries that reflect the ethos of Russian literature during the last phase of the 19th century. Through the harrowing journey of the wealthy merchant Vasili Andreevich and his peasant driver, Stepan, the text accentuates the existential struggle between materialism and spiritual awakening, ultimately leading to an epiphany that challenges societal values and beliefs. Leo Tolstoy, renowned for his commitment to social reform and profound spirituality, infuses this tale with personal experience that stems from his own grappling with faith, ethics, and the complexities of human relationships. His diverse life'Äîfrom aristocrat to ascetic philosopher'Äîdeeply informs the narrative's characterizations and moral dilemmas, making it a microcosm of his broader literary and philosophical inquiries. "Master and Man" is a compelling meditation on the essence of humanity, making it a must-read for those intrigued by ethical philosophy and social critique. Readers will find themselves questioning the nature of their own lives and the societal roles they inhabit, reinforcing Tolstoy's enduring relevance in contemporary discourse.
