Bøker av Daniel H Shubin

This volume is a new translation of Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace, for the American reader, by Daniel H. Shubin. For War and Peace to have the recognition of the greatest historical-fiction novel ever composed is an understatement, as it does not include its aspect of the philosophy of history provided by Tolstoy in regard to the conflicts and wars between France and Russia, and Napoleon's invasion of Russia and retreat. It is equally entertaining as it delves into Russian traditions, home life, adventure, love, ambition romantic manipulation, and the responsibility of parents and landlords. the aristocracy and the peasantry. In addition is the incorporation of Tolstoy's Christian humanist philosophy by using several characters of the novel as his mouthpiece.Individual agonies of the difficulty of dealing with life's issues in so many aspects is included in almost each chapter. Likewise there is hardly an event or scenario that does not deal with some facet of personal success or happiness, and death and its impact on others, the failure of relationships, and hope that provides perseverance for the future. Especially noticeable is Tolstoy's ability to allow some random event to affect lives and situations.

Daniel Andreev was a complex genius encompassing many spheres of comprehension, including philosophy, religion, history, culture, and political science. Daniel was simultaneously a mystic entity having a connection to the realms beyond the terrestrial sphere of our own, and he traversed the heavenly regions and nether regions, and recorded them. Daniel transcended the mundane and secular progress of contemporary existence, and this instilled in him the endurance needed to survive his 10 years of suffering in Soviet prisons, and his spinal handicap. All of this provided Daniel the ability to compose his meta-philosophy of history: Rose of the World. Alla Andreeva (Bruzhes, Ivashev-Musatov) loved Daniel because he was a genius and was a person not of the ordinary category. At the moment Daniel and Alla met an indivisible and lifelong connection was created. Daniel H Shubin has written several books on Russian history, philosophy and religion.

Aleksander Mikhailovich Dobrolubov was a successor to a long line of wanderers or pilgrims in Russia's history. Such people abandoned their secular associates, means of income, permanent home, family, and subjection to the state, and departed into society as religious nomads, working wherever work would be offered them. This was their moral self-perfection, Christian self-realization, departure from sin and attainment of holiness. Dobrolubov was Russia's mystic pilgrim, preaching his version of Christian spirituality in central Russia, Siberia and central Asia, during the early years of Soviet Russia. Living the Holy Spirit, walking and thinking in the Holy Spirit, every day and in every activity, this was Aleksandr Dobrolubov. This volume includes an original translation from the Russian of Dobrolubov's book, From the Invisible Book, a compilation of his divine poetry, visions and revelations, and his concept of the Holy Spirit life. Born in 1876, he died in about 1943.
