Summary
Details

Lev N. Tolstoy's ""The Kingdom of God is Within You / Christianity and Patriotism / Miscellanies"" presents a profound exploration of Christian ethics and non-violence. A cornerstone of Christian theology and social philosophy, this collection delves into the principles of pacifism and their application to everyday life. Tolstoy, a master of Russian literature, challenges conventional interpretations of Christianity, advocating for a radical embrace of love and non-resistance.

This volume examines the conflict between true Christian teachings and the demands of patriotism, questioning the role of the state and the justification of violence. Exploring themes central to Orthodox Christianity, Tolstoy presents a compelling vision of a world guided by compassion and understanding. His arguments, translated into English, continue to resonate with readers interested in the intersection of faith, ethics, and social justice. A timeless work, this edition offers invaluable insights into Tolstoy's spiritual and philosophical convictions.
