Ana Karenjina 1-2
The novel "Anna Karenina" has been proclaimed the greatest love story of all time, and its author, Count Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy, the greatest Russian prose writer.
All those who did not read the adultery and passion of Mrs. Karenina and the free Vronsky did so in a series of film adaptations. Scholars, critics, and fans sought to answer the question of what makes the love of these two literary characters so special among thousands of others. If there were an answer, Count Tolstoy probably would not have even taken up a pen in his vast estate in Yasnaya Polyana. However, one of the answers was that world literature, up until then, had not taken into account the selfishness and sexuality of love, which, by breaking social conventions, leads to the self-destruction of one or both lovers. In the great Russian realistic novel, Tolstoy began a kind of sexual revolution with “Anna Karenina”. In it, a woman, unlike, for example, Flaubert’s Emma Bovary, for the first time became a being who had the right to seek physical satisfaction.
