This monograph studies the spiritual and religious aspects of Leo Tolstoi` works: three main novels, several less studied stories, and the writer`s notes. What is the meaning of human life? What is the supreme truth? The author argues with a common interpretation of Tolstoi as a teacher of "spiritual ecumenism". Tarasov shows numerous examples of his Russian Orthodox interpretation of “rightness" and truth in Tolstoi`s stories.
