Description:

This is the 2006 Turkish edition of Resurrection (Diriliş), published by Kum Saati Yayınları. Written by Leo Tolstoy and first published in 1899, the novel is Tolstoy’s final major work and reflects his late-life moral and philosophical concerns.

The story follows Prince Dmitri Nekhlyudov, who, while serving on a jury, discovers that the accused woman, Katerina Maslova, is someone he once seduced and abandoned in his youth. Overcome with guilt, he attempts to atone for his past by following her through the corrupt Russian legal system and prison environment. As the narrative unfolds, the novel exposes injustice, social inequality, and institutional cruelty while exploring themes of repentance, moral responsibility, and spiritual rebirth.

Leo Tolstoy is one of the greatest writers in world literature, known for his epic novels and profound philosophical reflections on ethics, society, and faith. In his later years, he became increasingly focused on moral reform, non-violence, and spiritual awakening. Resurrection embodies these ideals and represents the culmination of his ethical worldview.

This Kum Saati Yayınları edition presents a Turkish translation of Tolstoy’s classic novel, making it accessible to modern readers. As his final completed novel, it holds strong literary and philosophical significance.
