Bethink Yourselves is a non-fiction book written by the renowned Russian author Leo Tolstoy in 1904. The book is a call to action for the Russian people to reflect on their actions and to consider the consequences of their behavior. Tolstoy argues that the Russian people have lost their way and have become too focused on material possessions and power, neglecting their moral and spiritual values.The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Tolstoy discusses the causes of the current state of Russian society, including the influence of Western ideas and the corruption of the government. In the second part, he offers a critique of the Russian Orthodox Church, arguing that it has become too entwined with the state and has lost its spiritual purpose. In the final part, Tolstoy offers a solution to the problems facing Russian society, calling on individuals to live a simple and moral life, free from the temptations of power and wealth.Throughout the book, Tolstoy draws on his own experiences and beliefs, including his Christian faith and his commitment to pacifism. He also uses examples from history and literature to illustrate his points and to demonstrate the importance of individual responsibility.Overall, Bethink Yourselves is a powerful and thought-provoking book that challenges readers to consider their own values and actions. Tolstoy’s message is as relevant today as it was over a century ago, and the book remains a classic of Russian literature and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
