Der 19-jährige Fürst Dmitri Nikolajitsch Nechljudow hat seine Universitätsstudien nach dem dritten Studienjahr abgebrochen. Mitja, wie der Fürst von seiner bald 50-jährigen Tante, der Gräfin Belorezkaja, gerufen wird, will sich fortan lieber vor Ort um das Wohl seiner siebenhundert leibeigenen Bauern kümmern und findet, dafür benötige er keinen Hochschulabschluss. Die Tante hält überhaupt nichts von den hochfliegenden Plänen des Neffen und belehrt den Jungen, die Armut einiger Bauern sei nun mal ein unvermeidliches Übel.

Part 4: When Anna and Vronsky continue seeing each other, Karenin consults with a lawyer about obtaining a divorce. During the time period, a divorce in Russia could only be requested by the innocent party in an affair and required either that the guilty party confessed or that the guilty party be discovered in the act of adultery. Karenin forces Anna to hand over some of Vronsky's love letters, which the lawyer deems insufficient as proof of the affair. Stiva and Dolly argue against Karenin's drive for a divorce.

Story0
War and Peace is rightly considered to be one of the most important books ever written. Leo Tolstoy's epic novel chronicles the Napoleonic Wars from the viewpoint of five noble Russian families: Rostov, Bolkonsky, Bezukhov, Drubetskoy and Kuragin. The main story begins in 1805 with Napoleon's impending invasion of Austria, and ends with his disastrous retreat from Moscow in 1813, moving deftly between geopolitics, military strategy, family alliances, religion and philosophy as the men and women of these families try to survive and get ahead.
