RESURRECTION 

BY LEO TOLSTOY 

Translated by 

MRS.  LOUISE MAUDE 

TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE 

Opinions about Tolstoy and his work differ, but on one point
there surely might be unanimity.  A writer of world-wide
reputation should be at least allowed to know how to spell his
own name.  Why should any one insist on spelling it "Tolstoi"
(with one, two or three dots over the "i"), when he himself
writes it "Tolstoy"? The only reason I have ever heard suggested
is, that in England and America such outlandish views are
attributed to him, that an outlandish spelling is desirable to
match those views.
