Journal Title: Молодий вчений - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 50

Abstract

The article deals with the peculiarities of the perception of the phenomenon of death in the work of L. Tolstoy. He perceives death as one of the forms of affirmation of life order, in which death is the main justification of life. Russian thinker builds a holistic system of death, which combines rational, spiritual, religious and artistic and intuitive understanding of it. Ultimately, the existential experience of Tolstoy's death overcomes a reasonable awareness of the meaning of life, which is based on the moral and ethical component that gives the interpretation of death a holistic sense. According to L. Tolstoy, the love for all living things is the only spiritual source of life that overcoming the existential fear of death. It is the spiritual inspiration of the Living through Love that reveals the value characteristics of the Living being, reveals its meaning and meaning to the intelligent consciousness. Thus, L. Tolstoy realizes the drama of human existence, which is in contradiction between the inevitability of death and the inherent man's thirst for immortality.
