In 'What is Art?' and 'Wherein is Truth in Art', Leo Tolstoy delves into the essence of art and its purpose, exploring the connection between art and morality. Tolstoy argues that true art should convey universal truths and evoke a deep emotional response in the viewer. Drawing on his own experiences as a writer and philosopher, Tolstoy critiques conventional standards of beauty and advocates for art that speaks to the soul. Written in a philosophical and contemplative style, these essays challenge readers to reconsider their understanding of aesthetics and the role of art in society. Tolstoy's works reflect the tumultuous literary and social context of 19th-century Russia, a time of cultural upheaval and political unrest. His ideas continue to influence thinkers and artists to this day, sparking debates on the nature of art and its ability to inspire change. Tolstoy's passionate exploration of art and truth makes this collection a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of literature and morality, offering profound insights that resonate across time and cultures.
