Özet
Tolstoy, perhaps one of the most widely read writers in world history, appears as an important name who influenced many different fields with her extraordinary life and the world of thought as well as her skill and reputation in the world of literature. Tolstoy, who searched for answers to the ancient questions of human history in his own scale, especially in the second half of his eighty-two years of life, did not hesitate to criticize religion, science and art in order to find the answers to these questions. This questioning attitude of his not only recommended a new moral doctrine but also put him in an unforgettable place in history as a freedom fighter beyond his time. In this sense, in order to understand Tolstoy, it is necessary to focus on his mission of seeking rights and morals as well as his literary and artistic identity, which makes him one of the most read names in the world. Thus, it would be a great injustice to describe Tolstoy as just a good writer. His extraordinary life has a great role in attributing him to many titles such as conscience pioneer, anarchist, soldier, moral and religious teacher, environmentalist, war correspondent, social reformist, as well as authorship. Tolstoy, who is not content with being an author of world-famous novels and literary masterpieces in his journey of life, is also a name in the world of thought as a thinker who tries to understand life in a real sense and therefore constantly seeks answers to questions that occupy his mind in the triangle of religion, art and science. He never met religion, science and art with a basic acceptance, and he never adopted the position of the positivist hedonist world against Christianity, especially brought by his age. However, his view of Christianity is always knotted in the thought that there are some dilemmas. Therefore, Zweig defines Tolstoy as artificial Christian.
