Judas Iscariot And Others is a collection of short stories by acclaimed Russian author, Leonid Andreyev. The book features a variety of themes and topics, ranging from love and death to religion and philosophy. The titular story, Judas Iscariot, is a retelling of the biblical tale of the betrayal of Jesus, from the perspective of Judas himself. Other stories in the collection include The Seven Who Were Hanged, which follows the final days of seven political prisoners on death row, and The Red Laugh, a haunting tale of madness and obsession. Andreyev's writing is known for its vivid imagery and emotional depth, and this collection is no exception. Overall, Judas Iscariot And Others is a powerful and thought-provoking read, exploring the complexities of the human experience in a variety of contexts.Judas on his part pretended to believe in the extraordinary ignorance of the chief priest, and spoke in detail of the preaching of Jesus, of His miracles, of His hatred for the Pharisees and the Temple, of His perpetual infringement of the Law, and eventually of His wish to wrest the power out of the hands of the priesthood, and to set up His own personal kingdom. And so cleverly did he mingle truth with lies, that Annas looked at him more attentively, and lazily remarked: There are plenty of impostors and madmen in Judah.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
