书籍简介: War and Peace a Russian novel by Leo Tolstoy, is considered one of the world’s greatest works of fiction. It is regarded, along with Anna Karenina (1873–7), as his finest literary achievement.
Epic in scale, War and Peace delineates in graphic detail events leading up to Napoleon’s invasion of Russia, and the impact of the Napoleonic era on Tsarist society, as seen through the eyes of five Russian aristocratic families.
Portions of an earlier version having been serialized in the magazine The Russian Messenger between 1865 and 1867, the novel was first published in its entirety in 1869. Newsweek in 2009 ranked it top of its list of Top 100 Books.
Tolstoy himself, somewhat enigmatically, said of War and Peace that it was, “not a novel, even less is it a poem, and still less an historical chronicle.”
俄罗斯伟大作家列夫·托尔斯泰的《战争与和平》是世界文学史上一部不朽名著。作家以一八一二年拿破仑入侵俄国为中心，描写俄国人民奋起抗击侵略者的英勇场景。本书具有史诗的气魄，画面广阔，人物众多。书中既有俄国和西欧重大历史事件的记叙，又有故事情虚构；既写了金戈铁马，刀光备影的战斗，又写了安逸宁静的日常生活；既有慷慨激昂的议人论世，又有细腻婉约的抒情述怀。作者以高超的艺术技巧塑造了一个系列鲜明的人物形象，写尽了各种人情世态。著名作家屠格涅夫称这部小说为“更加直接和更加准确地了解俄罗斯人民的性格和气质以及整个俄国生活”，读它“胜过读几百部有关民族学和历史的著作”。
作者巧妙地将战争与爱情结合起来，以细腻的笔触塑造了众多丰满、生动的人物形象。近一个半世纪以来吸引着一代又一代的读者，成为历久而弥珍的不朽之作。
