Description
The climax of a number of articles and polemics on morality, social justice, and religion is this sophisticated investigation of the essence of art. Tolstoy considers and rejects the notion that beauty may unveil and reinvent, seeing the question of the nature of art as a religious one. He comes to the conclusion that art must ultimately be a force for good, for the advancement and enhancement of humanity.
