The Philosophy of Leo Tolstoy

Leo (Lev) Tolstoy, author of classics such as "War and Peace" and "Anna Karenina", is not considered as an existentialist writer. In this video I take Leo Tolstoy's "Confessions" and "The Death of Ivan Ilyich" for an existential spin and discuss the phenomenon of existential dread : )
Music by Garbanotas; Footage from Jonas Mekas

"one foot in order, one in chaos, until death provide me relief" - Brilliant!

A Confession absolutely destroyed my mental health when I was a senior in high school. But in a way that needed to happen so I had the chance to rebuild myself better than before.

Amazing! Always waiting for your new video:)

Nice reading friend. Thank you.
But I do agree with others: fix the title. Should be more aligned. Will make this stronger. Thank you again.

[kynismos]

Bad title. That is not "the philosophy of Leo Tolstoy"

[divad]

Title: "The philosophy of Tolstoy"
*Proceeds to briefly talk about Tolstoy and then go on a rant about the problem of existence*

[NoufAbdulmajeed-ph]

Thank you.. We have to tolerate for the sake of what awaits us Beyond this chaotic existence. Solitude and contemplation helps.

Unlike your Camus video; this one is decent.
A bit self-absorbed, but decent.

I've found the answers that you and all philosophers knowingly seek, and that absolutely all humans seek - whether or not they know it. The Meaning of Life. And no, it's nothing you've heard as yet! But Leo Tolstoy was definitely on the correct path, when you understand his deepest of understandings. And it is indeed very "good news." The biblical prophet Elijah has returned, as prophesied, and testifies. If you want to know more, click and ye shall find.
