“War and Peace” by L. N. Tolstoy is a book for all times. It seems that it has always existed, the text seems so familiar, we barely open the first pages of the novel, many of its episodes are so memorable: hunting and Christmas time, the first Ball of Natasha Rostova, the Moonnaya Night in Otradny, Prince Andrei in the battle of Austerlitz … The scenes of the “peaceful”, family life are replaced by paintings that are relevant for the course of all world history, but for Tolstoy they are equivalent in time. Each episode is important not only for the development of the plot, but also as one of the countless manifestations of life, which is saturated in each of its own moment and which teaches Tolstoy.
