Krátky popis
'Beautifully written and suggestive' W H Auden, NEW
YORKER'Ingenious and subtle ... exactly what good critical writing
should be' GUARDIAN'Delightful' SUNDAY TIMES'The fox knows many
things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing.' This fragment of
Archilochus, which gives this book its title, describes the central
thesis of Isaiah Berlin's masterly essay on Tolstoy. There have
been various interpretations of Archilochus' fragment, Isaiah
Berlin has simply used it, without implying anything about the true
meaning of the words, to outline a fundamental distinction that
exists in mankind, between those who are fascinated by the infinite
variety of things (foxes) and those who relate everything to a
central all-embracing system (hedgehogs).When applied to Tolstoy,
the image illuminates a paradox of his philosophy of history, and
shows why he was frequently misunderstood by his contemporaries and
critics. Tolstoy was by nature a fox, but he believed in being a
hedgehog.
