Leo Tolstoy's most personal novel, Anna Karenina scrutinizes fundamental ethical and theological questions through the tragic story of its eponymous heroine. Anna is desperately pursuing a good, moral life, standing for honesty and sincerity. Passion drives her to adultery, and this flies in the face of the corrupt Russian bourgeoisie. Meanwhile, the aristocrat Konstantin Levin is struggling to reconcile reason with passion, espousing a Christian anarchism that Tolstoy himself believed in. Acclaimed by critics and readers alike, Anna Karenina presents a poignant blend of realism and lyricism that makes it one of ... |

Anna Karenina is one of the most loved and memorable heroines of literature. Her overwhelming charm dominates a novel of unparalleled richness and density. Tolstoy considered this book to be his first real attempt at a novel form, and it addresses the very nature of society at all levels, of destiny, death, human relationships and the irreconcilable contradictions of existence. It ends tragically, and there is much that evokes despair, yet set beside this is an abounding joy in life's many ephemeral pleasures, and a profusion of comic relief. ... |

В романа на Вера Мутафчиева Аз, Анна Комнина, преведен майсторски на турски език от опитната преводачка Сабрия Тете, също е задействана диалогична връзка с текстове от миналото. Романовият разказ е житиепис на именитата византийска държавничка и писателка, целящ да "разобличи" собственото и апологетично произведение за царуването на Алекси Комнин, озаглавено Алексиада. Житейската съдба на героинята, представена през погледа на заобикалящите я жени, е типична за тъй наречената андрократична цивилизация, в която господстват гледната точка и ценностите на мъжа. Силейки се (не винаги по свое желание) да се равни с ... |
