Über das Buch

The Death of Ivan Ilyich tells the story of Ivan Ilyich, a high-ranking Russian judge who lives a socially respectable but spiritually shallow life. Focused on career, comfort, and social approval, Ivan believes he has lived «properly.» Everything changes when he develops a mysterious, painful illness. As his condition worsens, Ivan confronts isolation—his family is more irritated than compassionate, and only his simple servant, Gerasim, shows genuine kindness. Facing death, Ivan is tormented by the fear that his life has been meaningless. He realizes that ambition and social status have led him away from true humanity. During his final days, Ivan undergoes a profound inner struggle. He begins to understand that a good life is measured not by appearances, but by compassion and authenticity. Moments before dying, he experiences a spiritual awakening, letting go of fear and accepting death with peace. Through Ivan's journey from denial to acceptance, Tolstoy explores the existential questions of mortality, the emptiness of materialism, and the possibility of spiritual redemption. The novella is a powerful meditation on how facing death can reveal the truth about life.
