Synopsis "Lo que yo Pienso de la Guerra (in Spanish)"

"Tolstói combatió en la guerra de Crimea, donde se enfrentaron las tropas rusas contra las de la alianza turco-anglo-francesa. Se incorporó en noviembre de 1854 como oficial de artillería, en Sebastopol, una ciudad sitiada. El sitio se prolongaría durante un año, y fue uno de los episodios más decisivos de una guerra que acabó inclinándose a favor de los ejércitos aliados contra Rusia.Esta experiencia en los campos de batalla afectó profundamente al joven oficial, resultando decisiva a la hora de iniciar su vocación como escritor y de cambiar su pensamiento patriótico, con el que llegó a Crimea, por el de un defensor de la ""no violencia activa"".La obra que aquí presentamos es fruto de esas experiencias. El propio Tolstói nos cuenta, en uno de sus pensamientos: ""No es el camino de la violencia el que nos conducirá a la paz deseada; es la misma paz, o mejor, la rebeldía pasiva""."

Lev Nikoláievich also known in Spanish as León Tolstói; 28 de agosto/ 9 de septiembre de 1828- Astápovo, now Lev Tolstói, Lipetsk province, 7 de noviembre/ 20 de noviembre de 1910) was a Russian novelist, considered one of the most important writers in world literature. His childhood was marked by the early loss of his parents, leading him to be raised by his aunts. From a young age, Tolstói showed an unusual intellectual restlessness and critical view towards traditional education, abandoning his traditional education studies, leaving university studies in Law and Oriental Languages at Kazan University after finding no meaning in them

His two most famous works, War and Peace and Anna Karenina, are considered the pinnacle of Russian realism, alongside works by Fyodor Dostoevsky. He received multiple nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature every year from 1902 to 1906 and nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1901, 1902, and 1910; the fact that he never won is a major controversy of the Nobel Prize.

He is globally known for the novels War and Peace (1869) and Anna Karenina (1877), often cited as pinnacles of realistic fiction. He first achieved literary success in his youth with his semi-autobiographical trilogy, Childhood, Boyhood, and Youth (1852-1856), and Sebastopol Sketches (1855), based on his experiences in the Crimean War. Tolstói's fiction includes dozens of short stories and several novels such as The Death of Ivan Ilyich (1886), Family Happiness (1859), and Hadji Murat (1912). He also wrote plays and numerous philosophical essays.
