Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina startled the world with its powerful portrayal of the human need for love and happiness weighted against the rigid demands of society. Its heroine, the sensual, rebellious Anna, renounces a respectable yet stifling marriage for an extramarital affair that offers a taste of passion even as it ensnares her in a trap for destruction. Her story contrasts with that of Levin, a young self-doubting agnostic who takes a different path to fulfillment and finds faith and marital bliss in an age of repression.Considered the greatest novel of the nineteenth century, Anna Karenina has been called Tolstoy's spiritual autobiography. Anna and Levin personify his lifelong struggle to reconcile his physical desires and intellectual ideals in order to lead a more meaningful existence. His program for abstinence and nonviolence, based on a personal interpretation of the Gospels, made him one of the world's most venerated teachers. 《安娜·卡列尼娜》小說(shuō)由兩條平行的線索構(gòu)成:一條是安娜追求愛(ài)情幸福的悲劇,她根本不愛(ài)了無(wú)生氣的官僚丈夫卡列寧,而與風(fēng)流倜儻的年輕軍官伏倫斯基一見(jiàn)鐘情和他離家出走,因此遭到上流社會(huì)的鄙棄,后與伏倫斯基出現(xiàn)感情危機(jī),最終徹底絕望而臥軌自殺。這里揭露了1...Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina startled the world with its powerful portrayal of the human need for love and happiness weighted against the rigid demands of society.
