Prince Andrew Bolkónski
Location:
In a medical tent in Borodíno
Andrew finds himself in a make-shift theatre with three operating tables. There are two other men being operated on, and Andrew thinks he recognises the one having his leg amputated.
A doctor comes and orders Andrew to be undressed. Andrew passes out from the pain in his abdomin but awakes with his leg bandaged. He looks closely at the man that he recognised, who is sobbing and frightened, and begging to be allowed to look at his leg.
Andrew realises it is Anatole Kurágin, who he had despised for so long, but feels sudden empathy, love and forgiveness in the aftermath of his near-death experience.
