Choked by the dust of the primitive country roads, marching past fields of ungarnered grain, the Russian regiments hastened to the German frontier. Mobilisation had not yet been completed. Guns stood in the arsenal yards in disordered array. Transport facilities for the artillery were lacking. In village and hamlet, at the very height of the harvest season, the young men were driven from the fields straight to the recruiting stations. For the tsar was bound by his treaties with France. He had borrowed billions of francs from the Paris bankers. The military treaties stipulated that Nicholas was to launch his armies against Germany fourteen days after war was declared. In the West, the German army corps were driving irresistibly through Belgium and rapidly approaching Paris. From Paris came panicky calls to Petrograd urging the Russians to take the offen- sive against Germany without delay. On July 30, the Russian Military agent in Paris sent an urgent report to General Headquarters: “It is now hardly likely that the French army can as- sume the offensive in the very near future. The most I ex- pect is a slow retreat.... The success of the war will entirely depend on our movements in the next few weeks and on the diversion of German army corps to the Russian front.”2 1 August 2, 1914.

In vain, did General Yanushkevich, Chief of Staff, plead against an immediate attack. Paris was insis- tent. The French Ambassador, Maurice Paléologue, haunted the Foreign Ministry, demanding that the Russian armies should at- tack. And on July 31 the Supreme Commander, Grand Duke Nicholas, the tsar’s uncle, nicknamed “Big Nicholas,” informed Paléologue that the Vilna and Warsaw armies would take the of- fensive “to-morrow at dawn.”1 Unprepared for war, the Russian armies invaded Germany. Not expecting such precipitate action on the part of the Rus- sian generals, Kaiser Wilhelm was obliged to retard the advance on Paris. The German High Command transferred the Reserve Corps of the Guards, the Eleventh Infantry Corps and the Second

I can truthfully aver that when I set pen to paper I had no rigid mental attitudes toward the phases of the Russian revolution, so that such interpretations as I venture on have come out of my study of the facts themselves.

  • Communist Manifesto”
    IN THE VANGUARD OF REVOLUTIONARY ACTION: THE FIRST RUSSIAN EDITIONS OF THE “COMMUNIST MANIFESTO” 1. The story behind the first Russian translation of the “Communist Manifesto” is rather enigmatic. It was published without indicating not only the authors or the editor and the printer, but also without a title page, publication date or place of publication. The publication of it was quite a surprise to Marx, who wrote to Engels (29.04.1870): Finally, ONE COPY of the Russian translation of our Communist Manifesto for you. I saw in the Werker, etc., that the Kolokol Publishing House, which was willed to Bakunin, also includes ‘this stuff’, so ordered 6 copies from Geneva. It's very interesting for us.1 The information about this edition appeared also in Marx and Engels’ preface to the second edition, where they claim that it was translated by Bakunin and published early in the “’sixties by the printing office of the Kolokol”2. Nevertheless, this information is questionable. One must remember that Marx and Engels were not exactly precise with such details. It is a well-known fact that Engels, for example, wrongly attributed the 1882 translation to Vera Zasulich and not Plekhanov in the preface to the German edition in 1890. We know for sure that the text was printed in Geneva by Ludwig Czerniecki. This can be verified not only because the paper and fonts match those from “Kolokol” of 15 February 18693; it is also confirmed in the correspondence between the printer and Nikolai Ogarev. It was published by Volnaya Russkaya Tipographiya4, probably in September 1869.

These two remarkable men - enemies then collaborators - share an alliance which would become the driving force behind the preservation of museum treasures. In its exploration of the Louvre Museum as a living example of civilization, FRANCOFONIA is a stunning and urgently relevant meditation on the essential relationship between art, culture, and history.

The first was the news that, after 22 years as délégué général, Gilles Jacob stepped up to become Président while handing down the reins to Thierry Frémaux, the latter now divides his time between Cannes and duties as head of the Institute Lumière in Lyons. The other was the presence on the Croisette of seven previous Palme d’Or directors: Francis Ford Coppola (The Conversation, 1974, and Apocalypse Now, 1979), Ermanno Olmi (The Tree of Wooden Clogs, 1978), Shohei Imamura (The Ballad of Narayama, 1983, and The Eel, 1997), David Lynch (Wild at Heart, 1990), Joel and Ethan Coen (Barton Fink, 1991), and Abbas Kiarostami (The Taste of Cherries, 1997). One might add, too, that over the past quarter century each of their eight award-winning films helped considerably to set the tone and style of the world’s mostrevered film festival. Apocalypse Now Redux In the case of Apocalypse Now -- aka Apocalypse Now Redux, to denote a new version of an old film -- Francis Ford Coppola returned to Cannes with the completed version of his work-in-progress presented here 22 years ago. No less than 53 minutes were added to the re-edited 203-minute version, in addition to a re-mastered Technicolor transfer and a re-mastered soundtrack.
