Features: This book was written during the harsh period of Russian Tsarist rule and embodies the author's intense religious sentiments. It explores humanistic care for the vulnerable, doubts about the sacred conventions of government measures, and more. The fate of a book often signifies its power, and this book is a perfect example. Its destiny was fraught with challenges; upon its birth, it faced censorship from the Tsarist authorities. Even with the author Tolstoy's worldwide reputation, it could not be published smoothly. The reason lies not in the explosive subversive force of the Chinese text against the political authority of the old era. The work is filled with humanistic care for the vulnerable, questioning the rationality of the sacred conventions of government measures, discussions on the boundaries of the rights and obligations of the people, of course, and also the prophetic debates of later discourse on civil disobedience, the refusal of conscience, and more. These words, even if picked up today, remain as fresh as ever.
