On Reason and the Power of Life (Tolstoy contra Spinoza).
In his search for the meaning of life, Tolstoy turned to Spinoza's rationalist teaching about freedom, reason, morality, and religious faith. Spinoza created a philosophy where beliefs are in union with deeds, logic unites with ethics, and knowledge joins faith. According to Tolstoy, it is art that...

Spinoza created a philosophy where beliefs are in union with deeds, logic unites with ethics, and knowledge joins faith. According to Tolstoy, it is art that makes a synthesis of all the best attempts of the real, true philosophy. I argue that Tolstoy's artistic method of linkage (stseplenie) was probably borrowed from Spinoza. Inspired by Spinoza's "theorems of reason," Tolstoy created his own "axiom of life" and elaborates on the concept of the "power of life" as a core of religious faith. Tolstoy endorsed Spinoza's rationalistic critique of religion which helped to liberate true faith from the power of superstition and church dogmatics, but he criticised the geometric form in which Spinoza put the truths he discovered. Ieškodamas gyvenimo prasmės, Tolstojus atsigręžė į racionalistinį Spinozos mokymą apie laisvę, protą, moralę ir religinį tikėjimą. Spinoza sukūrė filosofiją, kurioje tikėjimai susilieja su darbais, logika susivienija su etika, o žinios susijungia su tikėjimu. Pasak Tolstojaus, būtent menas sudaro visų geriausių tikrosios filosofijos bandymų sintezę. Tolstojaus meninis ryšio metodas (stseplenie) tikriausiai buvo pasiskolintas iš Spinozos. Įkvėptas Spinozos „proto teoremų", Tolstojus sukūrė savo „gyvenimo aksiomą" ir išplėtojo „gyvenimo galios", kaip religinio tikėjimo branduolio, sampratą. Tolstojus pritarė racionalistinei Spinozos religijos kritikai, padėjusiai išlaisvinti tikrąjį tikėjimą iš prietarų ir bažnytinės dogmatikos valdžios, bet kritikavo geometrinę formą, kuria Spinoza išdėstė savo atrastas tiesas. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Problems / Problemos is the property of Vilnius University and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
