| Title | Imperija dolzhna umeret': istorija russkih revoljucij v licah. 1900–1917 |
| Description | Mikhail Zygar’s book The Empire Must Die was written in 2017 to mark the centenary of the two Russian revolutions — the February and October Revolutions. Step by step, it traces the events that led to the ignominious collapse of the Romanov dynasty and plunged Russia into one of the greatest catastrophes in its history, whose consequences are still felt today.
Drawing on a wide range of contemporary written sources — archival documents, letters, newspapers, proclamations and memoirs — Zygar seeks to understand what caused the downfall of a regime that had once seemed unshakable. Was its collapse inevitable? Who played a direct role in the events that brought it about? And why was the Provisional Government of the young democratic Russia unable to prevent the Bolshevik seizure of power, which became the first step towards the establishment of one of the darkest dictatorships of the twentieth century? |
