FYSP 126 - Tolstoy’s War & Peace

FC ARHU WINT

4 credits
A simultaneously close and broad reading of one of the most perverse and radically innovative works of fiction ever written. Approaching the work through a variety of critical lenses, we will situate it concretely in its historical contexts and grapple head-on with the unabashedly ‘big’ and universal questions about war, peace, life, death, art, gender, free will, history and the human condition (among other things!) that lie at its heart.
