Tolstoy's "What Is Art?"

Leo Tolstoy compares art with speech by referring art as a form of communication. There are two kinds of communication good and evil in Tolstoy in "What is art?". According to Tolstoy, excellent art is the reason that mankind is perfect (Tolstoy 383). Tolstoy emphasized that this is the movement of human beings to move forward. Tolstoy speaks to his reader that speech gives knowledge from the history of humanity but art teaches people's emotions in the past. As knowledge becomes obsolete in society, it is replaced by new and more relevant information.

I would like to talk about literature and movies as art. According to Tolstoy's art definition, these art forms evoke some kind of emotions as people experience. The type of emotion depends on the type of book you read and the type of movie you watch. Tolstoy's art definition is limited to the area of ​​our emotions. I would like to add that art helps our ideas. Think more critically. Both literature and movies will help us get into the role of characters. Thanks to Mario Puzo's "Godfather" series, I lived in Italian gang life in the USA. I learned how to go up to the top through famous books and the protagonist of the movie, Michael Corleone. I would imagine myself as an Italian who lived in the 1950s to run my own mafia, not in my most ambitious dream. Thanks to Mario Puzo, I was able to transcend time, geography, even even sex. I have a chance to see life from another angle.

Tolstoy's art philosophy Tolstoy handles art from a very specific and narrow perspective, but this art is genuine, the classification of counterfeit arts and the quality of art. Tolstoy says that art works are "real" as long as "one person consciously passes through certain external signs, gives the feeling of others and others feel these emotions and experiences" Can classify (10) He believes that art can be defined only as a god just like God Ramses is intended to win the interests of God by building these art works If you build the largest temple in the name, he will be displayed as a worshiped by God, respected by people, and not despised by enemies. In the arts of Asia and Egypt, healing of the gods is always part of the medium scale work of outsourced work.
