About This Novel

"War and Peace" is one of Tolstoy's three masterpieces. The novel uses the chronicles of the four aristocratic families of Bolkonsky, Besukhov, Rostov, and Kuragin as plot clues. It expresses the contradiction between the Russian nation and the Napoleonic invaders, the Russian social system and the will of the people from the two aspects of war and peace, and affirms the great historical role of the Russian people in the war. He worked hard to write the people's history, described the Patriotic War as a just war for the people, and highly praised the people's rising patriotic enthusiasm and optimism. Aesthetically using and describing historical materials and describing people in historical events is a basic creative principle of "War and Peace" and an important reason for the novel's magnificent epic style.

War is for peace

People in war long for peace, and the reasons for starting wars are often varied. In a war, there is always one side who is the aggressor and one side who is the righteous. The aggressive side is for conquest, but the righteous side is for peace. For the Russian people, the Napoleonic invaders were destruction and the origin of war. And they can only take up arms to defend their homes. This was a Patriotic War, and they were fighting for peace. War cannot be without death. Napoleon was a very outstanding military strategist and politician, but he could not resist this fact. Therefore, peace is rare. Fortunately, Russia won in the end.

I wish war would never happen again

I often hear the older generation talk about the past. They lived in an era where there were constant wars. They had poor food, clothing, and warmth. They also had to avoid being hunted by invaders. After studying history, we also know that the harm caused by war is not only the death of the country, but also the people who suffer. Looking back on history, I am miserable and shed tears. This book explains the two kinds of life, "war" and "peace". We don't want war, we long for peace. Napoleon, this man's name is not very unfamiliar, his deeds, his achievements, but unfortunately he was defeated in the end. He has waged many wars with the Anti-French Alliance, so is he a bad person? His appearance was France's blessing. He defended his territory and his people were liberated. Therefore, he was too greedy and did many excessive things. But Napoleon had both merits and demerits, and his merits outweighed his faults. Therefore, war is not necessarily bad, but it is not necessarily good either. Many people take up arms because they defend their sovereignty. Peace should be what the people of every country need most. They are simple and kind-hearted and do not want to see their loved ones leave. They just want to live a stable life. May war never happen again, and may there be peace for all eternity.
