| Abstract | "Editors Robert Reid and Joe Andrew present eleven contributions by international scholars which highlight Tolstoi's influence on his contemporaries and posterity through his fiction and thought. A figure of Tolstoi's intellectual stature has naturally inspired an impressive range of responses. These encompass stage versions of his novels War and Peace and Resurrection, communes founded in his name, and translations which have sought to capture the essence of his works for successive generations. Tolstoi is also compared in this volume with his contemporaries in chapters on Dostoevskii, Veselitskaia, Rozanov and Elizabeth Gaskell. The reader of this work will gain new and unique insights into an unparalleled genius of world literature, especially into his immense cultural reach which continues to this day.
