| Meer info | This book is in good condition. Summary of Great Expectations: The story is set in the highest circles of Russian society. Tolstoy was a moralist and a sharp critic of the excesses of his aristocratic peers; Anna Karenina is often considered a parable of the difficulty of being honest with oneself when the rest of society expects dishonesty. Anna is a jewel of St. Petersburg's upper classes until she enters into a relationship with the wealthy and charming officer Count Vronsky. By giving in to her infatuation, she moves beyond the bounds of what is permissible in trivial, extramarital adventures. But when Vronsky's love cools, Anna cannot bring herself to return to Karenin, a man she despises, even as he otherwise forbids her from seeing her son. She cannot live with what she mistakenly perceives as Vronsky's rejection, nor with the prospect of returning to a life she hates, and so she commits suicide. A well-known interpretation of Anna's tragedy is that she can be neither completely honest nor completely dishonest and thus finds herself in a Hamlet-like inner split that drives her to suicide. But at the same time, the novel contains the parallel and contrasting love story of Konstantin Levin. Levin is a wealthy landowner from the province who could move into aristocratic circles, but who prefers to work on his estate. Levin tries unsuccessfully to join the elite when he courts Kitty Shcherbatskaya in St. Petersburg, but he gets her yes on the second try only later when Vronsky, Kitty's first choice, has not asked her to marry him and Levin has calmed down. Kitty's joyful, honest and solid relationship with Levin stands in sharp con-trast with Anna's with Vronsky, which is marked by constant turmoil, backbiting from the outside world and Anna's distrust. Tolstoy does not take sides but lets things end badly for Anna. Anna Karenina deals with themes of hypocrisy, jealousy, passion, Christian faith, fidelity, family and marriage, social progress and uses allegories. Tolstoy appears to condemn his aristocratic peers for not using their unearned privileges to uplift the people. |
