Summary: | Tolstoy's novel Resurrection represents a significant stage in the Russian writer's religious development. The plot of the novel focuses on the problems that confront anyone who wants to shift the understanding of the resurrection as putting on the new Adam each day towards an obligation to pacificism, vegetarianism, refusal of military service, possessions and bourgeois institutions, with stubborn criticism of legal systems that are not necessarily committed to justice, and sympathy for simple people, earning one's living by the work of one's own hands, and harmony with nature. |
