Ebook About This collection of daily thoughts to nourish the soul from the world’s sacred texts by Leo Tolstoy feature gems of inspiration and wisdom—author Thomas Keneally calls this book “transcendent, and that we are grateful he lived long enough to endow us with his grand inheritance.”This is the first-ever English-language edition of the book Leo Tolstoy considered to be his most important contribution to humanity, the work of his life's last years. Widely read in pre-revolutionary Russia, banned and forgotten under Communism; and recently rediscovered to great excitement, A Calendar of Wisdom is a day-by-day guide that illuminates the path of a life worth living with a brightness undimmed by time. Unjustly censored for nearly a century, it deserves to be placed with the few books in our history that will never cease teaching us the essence of what is important in this world.Book A Calendar of Wisdom: Daily Thoughts to Nourish the Soul, Written and Se Review :
When I first purchased and read this book, one day at a time, since it was meant to be a "daily inspirational" book, I very much enjoyed it, but then I also purchased a Russian Language Edition, Circle of Reading (Круг Чтения), that was printed in 2015 at Moscow. At this time I noted that there were many entire Daily Sections in the Sekirin Translation that are not in in the Russian Edition. For example, in the Sekirin version, for the August 15 page, the entire entry speaks about the virtue of not eating meat, and when I had earlier read this the first time I was pleased because I am a Vegetarian; however, this vegetarian page is not contained in the 2015 Russian Language Edition. To further determine which edition, either the Sekirin or the 2015 Moscow Russian Edition was correct, I purchased a copy of the 2-volume, 1923 Russian Language Edition published in Berlin by I. P. Ladizhnikova. The Berlin 1923 Russian Language Edition and the 2015 Moscow Russian Language Edition are identical. Although, as a Vegetarian I did enjoy the advocacy extolling the benefits of not eating meat, I think Sekirin made an egregious error in replacing the very good messages that Tolstoy placed in his original book for August 15. Sekirin should have simply translated Tolstoy's messages and not replaced Tolstoy's beliefs with his own. I am still reading the Circle of Reading on a daily basis but now am comparing the different editions just to see what other changes may have been made. Sekirin is a great disappointment for me and I will not be purchasing any of his other works. I'm so glad to have found this book, a rare book in America, here for the first time in English (recently), apparently. It was one of Tolstoy's very last works (THE last?), and he stated that it was his favorite of his own books. Which was humble of him to say, because it's probably at least half composed of various quotations and sayings of wisdom from a wide array of philosophers, Christian, non-Christian, and even secular. The other half or so of the book is his own thoughts and messages to us. It's structured as a "daily devotional", and each day's entry has a particular topic or theme--the main points of which are (in this edition, though apparently not in the original work of Tolstoy's) conveniently italicized for us. Tolstoy was imperfect and inconsistent just like every other genius. (What IS "consistency"? Even machines and robots and assembly-lines make mistakes...) But he was much to be admired, I feel, for his often radical stands for conscience and truth in a typically corrupt contemporary society--in his case, Russia's. He made many controversial but impressive decisions (giving away much of his wealth, starting at least one Christian community, and voluntarily becoming a laborer, though he was by birth a privileged Count and aristocrat); he wrote many controversial works (like "The Kreutzer Sonata", a short story which was mostly a diatribe against lust and sexual politics, and which even encouraged celibacy in marriages!), and made many controversial statements (for instance, calling his two earlier, famous, epic novels "Anna Karenina" and "War & Peace", "the works of an idle mind," if memory serves.) He was a genuinely born-again Christian, but he was uncommonly friendly and open-minded toward other faiths and philosophers, as long as he discerned in them a genuine interest in truth and love. This book shows how "ecumenical" (in the best sense of that word) he came to be, in his old age. Yes, he might be divisive, but he was an honest seeker of truth, and I look forward to meeting him in Heaven. This "daily devotional"--a swan song, of sorts--is attractively typeset, formatted, and bound, and (most importantly) will surely give the seeker of truth many wise words & perspectives to meditate upon.
