About This Item
MP3 Audio CD. Leo Tolstoy finds to synopsize the Gospels of the New Testament, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, into a single book, by searching forth the verses of the scriptures of Jesus Christ present in every gospel. He later learns that the Lord's Prayer is the greatest summary of every single teaching of Jesus Christ in the Gospels. Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy simply known as Leo Tolstoy, was a Russian author who is deemed as among the best writers in history. He grew up to an aristocratic Russian family. He is most popular for his War and Peace and Anna Karenina, oftentimes quoted as the apex of pragmatist literature. Leo then had an intellectual principled confrontation, ensued by what he thought as a paralleled exhaustive religious enlivening, as summarized in his non-fiction writing A Confession. His literal apprehension of the righteous canons of Jesus, concentrating on the Sermon on the Mount, resulted him to be a devout Christian anarchist and pacifist. His notions on peaceable intransigence, revealed in his writings including The Kingdom of God Is Within You, were to have an enlightened influence on the climactic 20th century personages as Mohandas Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., and James Bevel. Leo also was a devoted supporter of Georgism, the industrial ideology of Henry George, which he integrated in his work, specifically Resurrection. Some of the authors expressed their admiration for Leo such as Gustave Flaubert, "What an artist and what a psychologist!" Anton Chekhov, "When literature possesses a Tolstoy, it is easy and pleasant to be a writer; even when you know you have achieved nothing yourself and are still achieving nothing, this is not as terrible as it might otherwise be, because Tolstoy achieves for everyone. What he does serves to justify all the hopes and aspirations invested in literature."
