宗教与人心:论列夫·托尔斯泰艺术观的思想底蕴

On the Ideological Connotation of Lev Tolstoy's Artistic Views

列夫·托尔斯泰的艺术创作和艺术思想中,宗教和人心是两个关键因素。托尔斯泰批评官方宗教的虚伪性,坚持认为宗教应该落实到人心,与人的良心结合起来,才能产生真正的宗教意识。一般艺术由于缺少这种宗教意识,而引起托尔斯泰的强烈不满;真正的艺术,应该以人的良心为基础,表现具有人类共通性的情感内涵,从而帮助实现人类的大团结。

Religion and conscience are two key elements in Lev Tolstoy’ s artistic conception and his writing .Tolstoy criticized the hypocrisy of the official religion and insisted that religion should be reflected people’ s needs and be combined with people’ s conscience by which the real religious consciousness can be produced.Tolstoy is rather unsatisfactory with the ordinary arts for their lack of that kind of religious sense The real art is based on people’ s conscience, representing commonality of emotional connotation of human being so as to realize the great union of mankind all over the world.
