Ylösnousemus I
Translation of Voskresenie.

"Ylösnousemus I" by Leo Tolstoy is a novel written during the late 19th century. The book lays the groundwork for an examination of morality, justice, and societal roles through the character of Katjusha Maslova, whose tragic life story reveals the challenges faced by women in a morally complex world. The opening of the novel introduces Katjusha Maslova at a significant turning point in her life. Escorted to court, she is described as a former bonding servant to well-off women, now caught in the harsh realities of her past transgressions, while the setting contrasts the beauty of spring outside with the oppressive, foul air of the prison corridors she navigates. The narrative hints at her backstory, detailing her tragic upbringing, romantic entanglements, and systemic failures that lead her to a life of desperation. We see the broader societal implications reflected through the characters surrounding her, like Prince Dmitry Nehljudof, who will play a pivotal role in her life, introducing themes of guilt and redemption.
