"How Much Land Does a Man Need?" by Leo Tolstoy‚ and Faust in "Faust‚" part 1 written by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe‚ are similar and different in many ways. The characters of the devils as drawn by Goethe and Tolstoy also have many things in common. Both of the stories are about greed and what people are willing to do to get what they want. "How Much Land Does a Man Need" is a well-crafted adaptation of a short story by 19th century Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy. The story follows the life of a poor

It is obvious through his previous publications that Tolstoy has always harbored a somewhat pessimistic

Tolstoy uses” The Death of Ivan Ilyich” to illustrate to his readers the undesirable consequences of living a life as Ivan Ilyich did. The theme of the story is lies and deceit.
