Specifications
The novella The Death of Ivan Ilyich (1884-1886) occupies a central place in Tolstoy's creation during the years 1880-1890.
Its theme - the recounting of the end of a judge - Tolstoy defines as a "description of the simple death of a simple man." The main meaning of the work lies in the reflections the sick man makes about his entire past life, as well as the conclusion that a "decent, cheerful, pleasant life" is worse than the horror of death.
The Death of Ivan Ilyich, both in conception and execution, is a masterpiece that is ranked among the great creations of world literature. Tolstoy's realism within it reaches its highest perfection. The main character, in the complexity of his nature and the movement of his inner life, along with the social circumstances surrounding him, presents a remarkable depiction for its completeness, richness, and truth of life.
