Talk:Leo Tolstoy bibliography

message: I think this article would greatly benefit from some organization, perhaps dividing the list into sections of novels and short stories.  Chronological order should be maintained within the sections of course.   Verkhovensky 06:04, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Organization

message: Currently, "Family Happiness" is in the SHORT STORY section of this bibliography.  Yet, if one clicks on the link, one reads "Family Happiness is an 1859 NOVELLA written by Leo Tolstoy."  Furthermore, the article ends with "This article about a 19th century NOVEL is a stub." As well as, "Categories: NOVELS by Leo Tolstoy | 1859 NOVELS| 19th century NOVEL stubs."  Luckily, I own a collection of Tolstoy's works that includes "Family Happiness;" in this collection, "Great Short Works of Leo Tolstoy," "Family Happiness" is 81 pages long.  Wikipedia's article on "novellas," states that a story is typically considered a novella if between 85 and 300 pages.  Personally, I do not care if "Family Happiness" is considered a short story or a novella, I just wanted to point out these contradictions.  --Quicksandhigh 16:01, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Family Happiness

message: I have added "Aloysha the Pot" to the short story section.  Tolstoy wrote this short story in 1905.  In the anthology, "Great Short Works of Leo Tolstoy" the short story takes up seven pages.  If no one objects, I will write, or at least begin, an article on "Aloysha the Pot."  If anyone has any suggests or would like to help me out, feel free to let me know.  --Quicksandhigh 16:18, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Alyosha the Pot

message: I read this book recently, and unless it has some alternative name, it has yet to be listed here. Would appreciate if it popped up. ~~ --  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deadagain33 (talk • contribs) 22:53, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

==== Quotations ====
*»Before the end of the 1880's Tolstoy appears to have lost interest in turning popular legends and tales into short stories that would illuminate his religious and moral convictions. In 1903, however, a special circumstance led him to attempt more stories of this kind. He was invited to contribute to a volume on behalf of persecuted Jews of Russia, especially those attacked that year - in the terrible pogroms at Kishinev. Other distinguished authors, including Chekhov, gladly offered manuscripts for the proposed book. Tolstoy's three brief stories for this purpose were translated into Yiddish by the eminent Jewish writer Sholom Aleichem and appeared in a volume published in Warsaw.«www.ourcivilisation.com/smartboard/shop/smmnsej/tolstoy/chap9.htm
