Часть текста: the hostelry might stay in it as long as it was good for him and might eate and drink at his heart content and use all what was gathered in the inn clothes or boots or kind of provisions. The sole condition which was required from the travelers was that they schould take only what they needed presently and that they should help each other and leaving the hostelry made things tidy as before their arrival. Having arranged all this and written and hanged on the door this direction the benefactor himself retired. But it came to pass that when people came ent the hostelry they ded not look at the direction and began to use all the goods that where at their desposal without thinking of other people and triing to get all the thinges allthough not needed all everybody for himself.[26] They took began to quarrel between themselve over the goods. In snatching goods from each other spoiled them and sometime spoiled things aut of selfish spite in order that others schould not get them. So that havend spoiled everything in the inn, they began to sutler from cold and hunger, and from the injuries they themselves had inflicted on each other, and abused their host for having prepared too little goods, for not having placed caretakers, tor having allowed all sorts of bad...

Часть текста: of communities seems to such a man the only means of delivering himself from these contradictions. But this is an illusion. Every community is a small island in the mist of an ocean of unchristian conditions of life, so that the christian relations exist only between members of the colony but outside that must remain unchristian, otherwise the colony would not exist for a moment. And therefore to live in community cannot save a christian from the contradiction between his conscience and his life. I do not mean to say that I do not approve of communities such as your commonwealth, or that I do not think them to be a good thing. On the contrary, I approve of them with all my heart and am very interested in your commonwealth and wish it the greatest success. I think that every man who can free himself from the conditions of wordly life without breaking the ties of love — love the main principle in the name of which he seeks new forms of life — I think such a man not only must, but naturally join people who have the same beliefs and who try to live up to them. If I were free I would immediately even at my age join such a colony. I only wished to say that the mere forming of communities is not a solution for the christian problem, but is only one of the means of its solution. The revolution that is going on for the attainment of the christian ideal is so enormous, our life is so different from what it ought to be, that for the perfect success of this revolution, for the concordance of conscience and life, is needed the work of all men — men living in communities as well as men of the world living in the most different conditions. This ideal is not so quickly and so simply attained, as we think and wish it. This ideal will be attained only when every man in the...

Часть текста: criticism of the orthodox political economy. 1 The reading of every one of your books makes clear to me things, which were not so before, and confirms me more and more in the truth on practicability of your system. Still more do I rejoice at the thought, that Imay possibly see you. 2 My summer I invariably spend in the country near Tula. With sincere affection I am truly your friend Leon Tolstoy. 8 April 1896. Dear Sir, Письмо ваше доставило мне большую радость, п[отому] ч[то] я давно знаю и люблю вас. Хотя мы и идем разными дорогами, не думаю, чтобы мы разно мыслили в самом основном. Мне очень радостно было видеть в вашем письме два раза упоминание о другой жизни. Ничто так не расширяет взгляда, не дает такой твердой точки опоры и такой ясной точки зрения, как сознание того, что эта жизнь, несмотря на то, что только в ней мы можем и обязаны проявить свою деятельность, есть все-таки не вся жизнь, а только тот кусок ее, кот[орый] открыт нашему взору. Очень рад известию о том, что вы пишете критику ортодоксальной политической экономии. 1 С нетерпением буду ждать ее. Чтение каждой вашей книги уясняет мне то, что прежде было не вполне ясно, и открывает новые горизонты. Еще больше радуюсь тому, что, может быть, увижусь с вами. 2 Это будет для меня большая радость. Лето я провожу безвыездно в деревне подле Тулы. С истинной любовью ваш друг Л. Т. Примечания Печатается: английский текст по листу 71 копировальной книги, русский по автографу.
