Часть текста: of those to whom they are directed. I received the tracts you sent me and read them not only with interest but with profit, and cannot criticise them because I agree with everything that is said in them. There is only one question that I should wish to ask you. You are, as I know non-resistants. How do you manage to keep communial, but nevertheless property? Do you acknowledge the possibility for a Christian to defend property from usurpators? I ask this question because I think that the principle of non-resistance is the chief trait of true Christianity and the greatest difficulty in our time is to be true to it. How do you manage to do so in your community? With sincere respect and love yours truly Leo Tolstoy. I received your tracts, you say in your letter that [you] have sent me books, did you mean them or did you send me books calling the tracts books? I received more than a year the Oregon paper World Advance Thought, sometimes. I saw in it your articles. 2 I am very thankful to the editor for sending ...

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 whole world will say: Why should I sell my services and buy yours? If mine are greater than yours I owe them to you, because if there is in the whole world one man who does not think...

Dear Mr Fifield, I have received the first issues of the books, booklets and leaflets containing my writings, as well as the statements concerning the object and plan of the Free Age Press.

Часть текста: 3 whose name I forgot. In those books I found quite new notions for me about the Shakers. At the same time I received a letter from a Shaker with books, treats and three photographs. I read the books and was very thankfull to the brother, 4 who sent me them, but infortunally I lost the letter with the address, so that I could not answer and thank him. Now I received your books, and treats and letter. I read it all and thank you for it. All this strengthens my vews on marriage, which I expose in my book that I am just now finishing. I think that the ideal of a christian always was and must be complete chastity and appreciate very much your books about that matter. I know that you, shakers, speak always the truth and therefore expect the same from others. So I will tell you frankly all what I think of your religious views. I think that you profess the true christian religion and the true christian life, but you believe in two things in which I never can believe and you ought not: firstly, in the saintity of the whole Bible, including in it the old Testament, the Epistles and the Revelation of mother Ann, 5 and secondly that...

Часть текста: our friends of the «Brotherhood Chucrh» (I do not like those names; they promise too much: it would be well, if in the transformation they would drop this name). 1 I think, that a great part of the evil of the world is due to our wishing to see the realization of what we are striving at, but are not ready for, and therefore being satisfied with the semblance of that, which should be. Compulsory governement organization is indeed nought else, than the semblance of good order, which is maintained by prisons, gallows, police, army and workhouses. Of real order there is none; only, that which infringes, it is hidden from our view in prisons, penal settlements and slums. And I think, that the dicease remains so long uncured, because it is concealed. So likewise with brotherhood or church communities. They also are semblances. There cannot be a community of saints among sinners. I think, that the members of a community in order to keep the semblance of sainthood must necessarily commit many new sins. We are so created, that we cannot become perfect either one by one, or in groups, but (from the very nature of the case) only all together. The warmth of any drop (or particle) is transmitted to all the others. And were it possible to conserve the heat of one particle, so that it should not pass to the others and...

Dear Miss Hapgood, I received your last letter with the draft for five pounds 18S. and thank you heartily for the trouble you took in this matter and also the generous contributors. I received also your translation of my article about our work 1 and admired the correctness and elegance of your translation. I am sorry to say that the crops in our place are nearly as bad as they were last year ant that I am obliged to continue [the] part of my work next year. I have some money left so that I will be able to do it thanks to your kindness and the goodness of your compatriots. My compliment to your mother Yours truly L. Tolstoy. Дорогая мисс Гапгуд, Я получил ваше последнее письмо с боном на пять фунтов 18 шиллингов и сердечно благодарю вас за хлопоты, которые вы взяли на себя в этом деле, а также великодушных жертвователей. Я получил также ваш перевод моей статьи о нашем деле 1 и восхищаюсь правильностью и изяществом вашего перевода. К сожалению, должен сказать, что урожай в нашей местности так же плох, как в прошлом году, и что я должен в будущем году продолжить часть нашей работы. У меня осталось немного денег, так что я буду иметь возможность делать это благодаря вашей доброжелательности и доброте ваших соотечественников. Привет вашей матушке. Ваш Л. Толстой.

Although I have not read all the articles, 1 1 have no reason to call in question the accuracy of your translation, seeing that I have already had ample proofs of your fidelity and accuracy in translating. I can only explain the telegram you have received by a letter written by my wife to the «Moskovski Vedomosti» denying the assertion that I had send any articles to any foreing periodical and repudiating certain extracts from the «Daily Telegraph» affirming with reason that they were garbled till they had become almost unrecognisable. 2 I deeply regret the annoyance caused you by my article. Pray accept the assurance of my perfect esteem. Yours truly, Leo Tolstoy. В ответ на ваше сегодняшнее письмо я могу только выразить свое удивление на содержание той телеграммы, которую вы получили от «Daily Telegraph». Я никогда не отрицал и никого не уполномочивал отрицать подлинность статей, появившихся под...

With cordial regard Believe me, Yours truly Leo Tolstoy. Милостивый государь, Я получил как ваше письмо, так и письмо от банкирской конторы Гильман сын и К о с извещением в обоих письмах о том, что мне переведено по телеграфу 200 долларов для помощи нашим голодающим крестьянам. Боюсь, не случилось ли какой-нибудь ошибки, потому что я до сих пор не получил денег, и я был бы вам признателен, если бы вы могли сообщить мне, как были адресованы деньги, на какой банк они были посланы, чтобы я мог подтвердить их получение. 1 Во всяком случае позвольте мне выразить вам, как мы глубоко благодарны за ту обильную помощь, которая приходит из вашей страны, и позвольте мне просить вас передать мою сердечную благодарность тем членам вашей Воскресной школы, которые так щедро содействовали нашему фонду голодающих. С сердечным приветом остаюсь уважающий вас Лев Толстой. Написано в Москве, откуда Толстой выехал вечером 22 января. Примечания Ответ на письмо от 2 января нов. ст. профессора И. И.

Часть текста: a continual struggle to surpass himself, — as striving at every birth to make a better man than before, we are conceiving nothing better, than an omnipotent snob». 1 Об остальном же вашем рассуждении о боге и о зле повторяю слова, которые я высказал, как вы пишете, о вашем «Man and Superman», 2 а именно, что вопросы о боге, о зле и добре слишком важны для того, чтобы говорить о них шутя. И потому откровенно скажу вам, что заключительные слова вашего письма произвели на меня очень тяжелое впечатление: «suppose the world were only one of God’s jokes, would you work any the less to make it a good joke instead of a bad one» — «предположите, что мир есть только одна из божьих шуток. Разве вы в силу этого меньше старались бы превратить его из дурной шутки в хорошую?» Ваш Лев Толстой. Bernard Shaw. 9 May 1910 Jasnaya Poliana. Toula. Russia. My dear Mr. Bernard Shaw, I have received your play and your witty letter. I have read your play with pleasure. I am in full sympathy with its subject. Your remark that the preaching of righteousness has generally little influence on people and that young men regard as laudable that which is contrary righteousness is quite correct. It does not however follow that such...

I feel in you a kindred spirit and it is a joy for me to be in communication with you. I read with great interest your «Anatomy of misery», 1 and before I got it from you, I got a copy of it through a bookseller and had it translated in Russian. I thank you heartily for sending it to me. I received it in time. My book, the translation of the gospels, 2 is now being translated by a gentleman in Petersbourg — prof. Turner (Petersbourg university). If your publischer will write to him, he will know all about it. With high regards yours truly Leo Tolstoy. Милостивый государь. Я еще не получил оттисков ваших статей, которые меня очень интересуют, как и всё, что вы пишете. Я чувствую в вас родственную душу, и для меня большая радость быть в общении с вами.
