Duda, Katarzyna2022-12-122022-12-122002Polonia Sacra, 2003, R. 7 (25), Nr 12 (56), s. 5-28.1428-5673http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/2092The review of the Russian literature about war presented in the paper, is not, for obvious reasons, the full picture of the subject, which does not go out of date. Presented works seem to be the most representative for the issues outlined. Omitting propaganda works, which serve ideology, it must be said that war is perceived invariably as aggression, inflicting suffering on a human by another human, who, filled with pride, claims a right to correct the world according to his own, egoistic idea. It turns out, however, that “correcting” cannot mean “destroying” and murdering. Life, as the greatest of gifts, is disgraced during war by usurpers of God's rights. Therefore, war, no matter what war it might be, shall never be inscribed in an optimistic triad of Faith, Hope and Love. At the same time, war – each and every war – leaves a never overcome trauma, deeply rooted in human consciousness.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/wojnaliteraturaliteratura rosyjskahistoria literaturytotalitaryzmmartyrologiacierpienieczłowiekhistoriaZSRRZwiązek RadzieckiRosjawojskopolitykaniewolapatriotyzmreligijnośćwarliteratureRussian literaturehistory of literaturemartyrologysufferinghumanhistoryUSSRSoviet UnionRussiaarmypoliticsenslavementpatriotismreligiousnessArticle
