Excerpt from The Created Legend
The Created Legend his Paradiso. And just as the problem there was the abuse of bodily beauty, so it is here the idealism of bodily beauty. It is natural that the over draping of our bodies, the supposed symbol of our modesty, but in reality an evidence of our lust, should form part of his thesis. But M. Anatole France has already pointed out brilliantly in Penguin Island how immodesty originated in the invention of clothes.

Reseña del editor
For there is nothing either good or had hut thinking makes it so Shakespeare To the impure all things are impure. Nietzsche In The Little Demon Sologub has shown us how the evil within us peering out through our imagination makes all the world seem evil to us. In The Created Legend, feeling perhaps the need of reacting from his morose creation Peredonov, the author has set himself the task of showing the reverse of the picture: how the imagination, no longer warped, but sensitized with beauty, is capable of creating a world of its own, legendary yet none the less real for the legend. The Russian title of the book is more descriptive of the authors intentions than an English translation will permit it to be. Tvorimaya Legenda actually means The legend in the course of creation. The legend that Sologub has in mind is the active, eternally changing process of life, orderly and structural in spite of the external confusion. The author makes an effort to bring order out of apparent chaos by stripping life of its complex modern detail and reducing it to a few significant symbols, as in a rather more subtle morality play. The modern novel is perhaps over-psychologized; eternal truths and eternal passions are perhaps too often lost sight of under the mass of unnecessary naturalistic detail.

The author examines the tension between the beauty of the physical world and the need for inner purity, ultimately suggesting that it is through finding beauty in oneself and others that true transformation can occur.
