A critical analysis of the selected short stories was done with the use of library research. The formalistic, sociological, psychological, and historical approaches were used in the study. The paper was divided into the following parts: The first chapter served as the background of the study.

The fifth chapter presented the summary, findings, conclusions, and recommendations. 1. The socio-economic conditions existent during Tolstoy’s life are still true today. Such socio-economic conditions are poverty, elitism, existence of tenants, and the big gap between the rich and the poor. 2. The stories of Tolstoy echo universal truths, such as the power of love, the futility of excessive jealousy, and the generative quality of death. 3. These short stories do not only delight but also satirize societal conditions of that era. 4. The characters and themes project down-to-earth realities. 1. The theory of infection is the impact of the whole story on the reader. Such an impact brings about varied reactions from the reader as the reader feels how the author has felt when the prose was written. 2. Socio-cultural conditions such as poverty, abuse of power, and low moral fabrique of his times have greatly influenced Tolstoy’s formulation of his Theory of Infection. 3. To depict this theory in his stories, Tolstoy used the following literary techniques: character and characterization, themes and thematic designs, and the use of images and character symbols. 1. The following studies may be of interest to future researchers: a. A parallelism on Tolstoy and Mahatma Gandhi b. Tolstoy’s “The Kingdom of God is Within Us” and modern morality c. Beyond text: a study on though and learning in Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina. 2. Literary criticism on other works of Tolstoy may also be worked on. 3. Incorporation of Tolstoy’s philosophical writings in the tertiary level of education.Item Tolstoy's application of his theory of infection in his selected short stories(1999-04) Padawil, Virginia Tambol.The study entitled, Tolstoy’s Application of his Theory of Infection in his selected short stories, aimed at answering the following questions: Firstly, what is theory infection?
