Часть текста: of the case of the Douchobortsy. I have just written a letter article entitled: «The two wars», which I have no time to translate but the contents of which I would like to communicate to you. 2 I say, that in our time there were two wars going on: one the Spanish American war, which is finished, and the other war against war which is still going on and which will finish only with all the wars in the world. This is the war, that the Douchobortsy and all the true Christians are making against the Russian and all the military government. I hear that you have great heroes who have killed a great many nearly unarmed men (the spanishs were unarmed in comparison with Americans). I got letters from Americans, who engage me to write about this noble work of their sailors and soldiers as they call it. 3 But I find that the work done by the American army and fleet was quite the opposite of noble and all these heroes are disgusting. I can imagine an old weak man full of superstitions, who thinks, that he can solve a dispute by boxing, but when I see a young a strong man who by his culture and the ideas of his time ought be ...

Часть текста: диалектического материализма. Два основных устоя составляют фундамент этой философии: 1) все наши познания возникают путем опыта; 2) критерием истинности, т. е. действительности знаний, является возможность основанной на них целесообразной деятельности». 225. 89 19 . Ивана — И. О. Шураева, слугу в яснополянском доме. 13 января. Стр 90—93. 226. 90 25—26 . заблудился в Засек[е]. — Засека — название государственного леса лиственных пород, в 32000 десятин, тянувшегося полосою шириной от 2 до 5 верст через всю Тульскую губернию. В XVI—XVII столетиях лес этот служил заграждением от набегов татар: деревья «засекали» и сваливали в кучу, чем преграждался путь татарской коннице, откуда и пошло название «Засека». Толстой любил ездить в Засеку верхом для прогулки. 227. 90 27 . Жду Ч[ерткова]. — В. Г. Чертков 15 января 1908 г. приехал на короткий срок по своим личным делам в Россию, перед окончательным возвращением из-за границы. 228. 90 28—29 . думаю о драме. — О какой именно драме думал тогда Толстой, сказать не можем. Быть может это была «драма о Булыгине сыне» (см. запись от 8 ноября 1907 г.). В 1908 г. им было...

Часть текста: your letter and the two issues of the magazine. Both were intensely interesting to me; indeed, the oppression of a majority by the minority of a people and the corruption which flows from it, is a phenomenon which has always occupied my mind and at present is entirely occupying my attention. I will endeavour to convey to you what I think, both in a particular and a general way, about those causes from which those dreadful calamities have arisen and do arise, of which you write in your letter and which are also mentioned in the two numbers of the Hindoo magazine you sent me. The causes, owing to which this astonishing spectacle arises, of the majority of the labouring classes submitting to a mere handful of idlers whom it permits to dispose not only of its labour but also of its very life, are always and everywhere the same; whether the oppressors and the oppressed belong to the same, or, as is the case in India and in other countries, where the dominant class belongs to an entirely different nation from those oppressed. It appears especially strange of India, for here we have a people of 200 millions of individuals, highly endowed with spiritual and physical powers, in absolute subjection to a small clique, composed of persons utterly alien in thought and aspiration and altogether inferior to those whom they enslave. These causes, as one can easily see from your letter, from the articles ...
