Tolstoy's epic covers Peter's early life and rise to power prior to the Battle of Narva,and is rife with drama and history. While Tolstoy leaves out some details of Peter's life, he makes up for it with a rich cast of characters, places, and historical events that shaped modern Russia. Not a well known book in the West, but an excellent example of Russian historical fiction from the Russian perspective. ( ) Great novel! I enjoyed every single page of it. It`s so sad that Tolstoy died before finishing it. Anyway it`s very good source of information of 17th -18th Century Russia and its Tsar. People read about Hitler and Stalin, but they are just egoistic sick men compared with Peter the First. Some politicians could learn a lot from him - how to boost countries` economy and how to make an empire out of sleepy villages: (full review rozmarins.blogspot.com) Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

To Alexei Tolstoy (1883-1945) history, in addition to an artistic theme, was also a means of studying life. The novel "Peter the Great" was preceded by various works on this theme (Peter's Day, On the Rack) which depict the formative stages of the author's conception of history. Tolstoy published the first part of the novel in 1929, the second in 1934, working on the third part until the day of his death, yet leaving it unfinished.The novel is dynamic. It shows the epoch and Peter himself, a true national hero of Russia and creator of the Russian state, in all their magnificence and multiplicity, in all their contradictions. The author describes the transformation of Russia into a mighty power. The novel is imbued with pride for Russia and faith in the Russian people. This profoundly realistic work has greatly influenced Soviet writers working in the field of history. Tolstoy won the Stalin Prize for this novel. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
