WHAT TOLSTOI WROTE

From the period of November, 1895, to 1899 Tolstoi worked on the following manuscripts:[1]

A. Fiction

1. The novel Resurrection (November, 1895-February, 1896, January February, 1897, July-December, 1898, and all of 1899).

2. The drama The Light That Shines in Darkness (December, 1895—planned it; January-April, 1896; October, 1896, and July-August, 1897—planned it).

3. The novel Hadji Murad (September, 1896; March April, 1897—planned it; September, 1897—June, 1898).

4. The story Father Sergius (June, 1898; August, 1898—planned it). Besides this, there are indications that he planned during this period:

5. The story Who is Right? (November, 1897).

6. Notes of a Madman (December, 1896, January, 1897).

7. The drama The Living Corpse (December, 1897).

8. The novel The Forged Coupon (June, 1898, December, 1899).

  1. This list has been compiled not only from Tolstoi's Journal, but from other sources. As far as can be judged from the Journal, Tolstoi during some months, while busied with the revision of some one of his manuscripts, would at the same time not write but only consider some other bit of work; this kind of creative work is noted in the list as "planned."
