Abstract(s)
Following Pierre Nora's concept of topical historical memory, the author examines Lev Tolstoy's War and Peace and Alois Slovák's Cairn of Peace. Both these cultural facts seek to resist the return to the Middle Ages and create a certain mechanism of humanistic historical memory for the whole of mankind. In this context the historical views of the author of War and Peace acquire a renewed meaning, since it was precisely his view of history that prevented him from receiving the 1902 Nobel Prize. His prediction of an imminent anthropological catastrophe, the first symptom of which was indifference towards the simultaneous destruction of thousands of human beings in the name of invented historical values, unfortunately went unheard by his contemporaries and came to fruition in the 21st century.
