The i nterest which attends t he trends in modern worl d events in which the Soviet Government plays such an im- ~ portant role, has been reflected in a corresponding interest In the history of' Russ1a o The present theme has been selected a.s a. subjeot of research beoause of its timeliness . It forms t he historical antecedent f or many of the event s of worl d- wide im­ portance which ha ve their origin i n the Soviet Union's pursuit of its ob jectives and wl11, it 1s hoped, contribute something to the understanding of the present by a study of the past. The Husst s n Revolution of 1917 and its background has heen the sub ject ,of .an abundance of writ ings, a factor which pre­ sents the historical investigator wi th problems of compressi­ b1l1ty and selectlvlty of an unusual natur e. That t he subject of the HU9sian Revolution should interest so many writers 1s not unusual wh en, viewing it in t he present light of histor1cal perspective, 1t stands out as the most fundamental social up­ heaval of mod err') times . Apar t from historians, write r s on world polItIcs , economists. sociologists, sta tesmen, and philo­ sopher s have all viewed the event from their particul a.r fields of int erest and have reoorded their impressions. The problem faCing the 1nvestigator in this subject 01.' arriving at obJeotlve truth 1s not eas,., for, added to the inherent dIfficulties of the main problem, are the complexIti es arising from oppos ing 2 subjective viewpoInts among various writers . In an art icle evaluating the bIbliography on the HU 88ian Revolution proper, Professor Ke.rpovl ch points out some diffi­ cult ies whlch the investIgator should have in mind . F1rst of all, he says, the field is crowded with an abundance of per­ sonal memoi rs masquerading as his tory. Seoondly, such origi­ nal documents as are now extant are 1n the hands of a govern­ ment whioh 1s not amiss to using them for propaganda purposes. 'Thirdly, the writings of many of the revolutionary leaders have to be used with caution because they have been used by their authors as a means of politi cal pamphleteering . The writer goes on to evalua te some works with whi oh he 1s personal ly ac­ quainted but does not, by any means, attempt to cover the en­ tire field , 1 1 M. M. Karpovich, "The RUssian Revolution of 1917", The Journ­ al of Modern H1story, 1930, 21258-280. In undertaking the present paper I will endeavor to limit the use of numerous direot Quotations believing t hat, in the empl oyment of t he narrative style, reader interest is increased. Howeve r , 80me wi ll necessarily have to be included to i llustrate or suppor t particular statement s, or because t he pertinency of the remark is such that the idea is best oonveyed in the lang­ uage of the orig1na1 writer. The ava1labi1ity of source mater­ ial w111 alao be taken into oonsideration in the use of quota­ t ions . The general 'plan of the thesis will be best' developed if the causal relationships ar e kept within the groups in whioh 3 men find themselves assooiated in modern socIety: the politi­ cal, social, and eoonomi c. Some overlapping will occur be­ cause these factors nre so interrelated as not to be always oapable of sharp distinction. The writer w1l1 endeavour to give some attention to those intangibles which so often elude the historian such as the temper of the people, group psychology, etc., but which play such vital roles in t he history of na­ tions. It 1s the belief of the writer that the Russian Revo­ lution throws new lIght on Russi an history. To understand the soclal upheaval of 1917 one must become acquainted not only with the Tsarist regime but even more with t he Russian Revolu­ tionary movement. While the events of 1917 represent a complete break wlth the past, they do, on the other hand, present a se­ quel to the previous history of the r evoluti onary movement. Proper historical perspeotive will best be served 11' previous developments ar e g1ven t~elr share of attention proportionate to their relative 1mportance. Each of the following chapters could be elab o~ ted upon and made a special study. For the sake of historical interest, it has been deemed more advisable to array 1n general all the components rather than to treat isolated phases 1n detail . The dating of the Julian calendar, which was i n force in Russia during the time period covered by the present paper will be kept. Conversion to the Gregorian Calendar can be made by adding thirteen days . For the sake of uniformity, a single spelling of Ru s sian names has been maintai ned even though , SOUrces contain vari a t1ons . The writer wishes t o acknowledge with gratitude the numer- 4 OUB suggestions and comments prof f ered by t he professor ial staff of the history department at Marquette. Likewise, a ~im1.lar debt of gratitude 1$ due to lIbrar i a ns and others who want beyond the ordinary obli ga tions of their offi ce i n their coope ration. '. 5 Chapter I The Historical Background A neoessary prelude to the understanding of the sign1f1 .. oant historioal events which took place in Russ1a in 1917 re­ quires a study of earlier events together wIth an exposItion of the'ir causal relationship with the broade,r aspecta of the revolutionary movement as a whole. lienee, this i nitial sur­ vey chapter will consider two aspects of the Russian revolu­ tionary movement. The fIrst part w111 highlight the influenoe of ideas, under which I shall 1nolude the writings whioh had the greatest infiuence on the movement., Seoondly, I shall t reat of the polItical aspeots of the struggle against Teardom. This tr.eatment represents, not an exhaustive ooverage of every faotor, but a 8urvey of the more remote oauses which are ohro­ nolog1cally antecedent to the proximate causes whioh are treat­ ed in later ohapters. Supplement1ng this, 1t will be neoessary to inclUde oertain other 'aspeotswhieh l1e outside this range but whioh l'orm part, of the baokground, 8uch, for example, aa Russia's peouliar histor10al development. The l'aot that ldeas, expressed through the vooal or writ­ ten medium, have and had a potent influenoe on sooial movements is quite obvious. Tli.. precede and glve form and direotion to oonor ete actions. In the Russian revolutionary movement, the serv1ce rendered by wr1ters, praotically all of whom lived dur- 1ng the n1neteenth oentury, bears a striking resemblanoe to the Influenoe exercised by Voltalre, Rousseau, Condorcet, and others 6 on the Frenoh Revolution. In Russia, most or the literary efforts originated from, and oirculated within, that special class whioh we know as the intelligentsia. This t erm is used to designate that social oaste, which had m.embers from differ­ ent economio layers of the populati on, and whose manners, cus­ toms, and mutual int erest in soclal problems, made it a dls­ t1nct group within the RUssian population.

  • Socialism in Europe and the Russian Revolution India and the Contemporary World Society Ofthefuture
    Socialism in Europe and II the Russian Revolution Chapter 1 The Age of Social Change In the previous chapter you read about the powerful ideas of freedom and equality that circulated in Europe after the French Revolution. The French Revolution opened up the possibility of creating a dramatic change in the way in which society was structured. As you have read, before the eighteenth century society was broadly divided into estates and orders and it was the aristocracy and church which controlled economic and social power. Suddenly, after the revolution, it seemed possible to change this. In many parts of the world including Europe and Asia, new ideas about individual rights and who olution controlled social power began to be discussed. In India, Raja v Rammohan Roy and Derozio talked of the significance of the French Revolution, and many others debated the ideas of post-revolutionary Europe. The developments in the colonies, in turn, reshaped these ideas of societal change. ian Re ss Not everyone in Europe, however, wanted a complete transformation of society. Responses varied from those who accepted that some change was necessary but wished for a gradual shift, to those who wanted to restructure society radically. Some were ‘conservatives’, others were ‘liberals’ or ‘radicals’. What did these terms really mean in the context of the time? What separated these strands of politics and what linked them together? We must remember that these terms do not mean the same thing in all contexts or at all times. We will look briefly at some of the important political traditions of the nineteenth century, and see how they influenced change.

  • THE Bolsheviks' Destruction of the Russian Constituent Assembly and the Making of the FIRST COMMUNI
    57 DOI: https://doi.org/10.31577/SPS.2019-2.4 Pieter C. van DUin - ZUZana POLÁČKOvÁ1 Pieter C. van Duin, University of Leiden, Leiden, Holandské kráľovstvo Zuzana Poláčková, Historický ústav SAV, Bratislava THE BIG BANG OF COMMUNISM: THE BOLsheviKs’ DestrUCtiOn Of the rUssian COnstitUent assemBLy anD the maKing OF THE FIRST COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP (NOVEMBER 1917-JANUARY 1918) This essay examines the suppression by the Bolsheviks in January 1918 of Russia’s first democrati- cally elected parliament, the All-Russian Constituent Assembly, and the various steps taken and argu- ments used by them during the preceding weeks to achieve this goal. Although Lenin and his Bolshevik party had never intended to tolerate the emergence of the Constituent Assembly as a competing political institution to their so-called Soviet democracy, they had to take care to present their repressive interven- tion as a rational and inevitable act from a revolutionary point of view. This crucial historical episode reveals the true character of the communist movement and communist ideology, which developed into one of the most dangerous threats to European democracy. There were several socialist parties in Rus- sia who tried to fight the Bolsheviks and to present a democratic-socialist alternative, in particular the moderate (‘Right’) wing of the Socialist-Revolutionary Party. The last section of this essay pays some additional attention to Viktor Chernov, a leader of the democratic group of Socialist-Revolutionaries and the President of the Constituent Assembly. In 1921 he fled to Czechoslovakia, where he lived until 1929. Key words. Communism; Bolshevism; democracy; Russia; Socialist-Revolutionaries; Viktor Chernov The Bolshevik seizure of power in Petrograd on 7 November 1917 (25 October on the Old Russian calendar), known among faithful communists as the ‘Great October Revolution’, was shocking to most non-Bolsheviks and even to some Bolshevik party members themselves.

  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

The uncovering of previously unused Russian and British sources throwing fresh light on his life, intellectual development and occupations has made possible a fuller assessment of a significant figure in Glasgow’s contribution to Slavonic Studies. Brennan lived and taught in Russia for 20 years. The resulting intense and unusually intimate experience of Russian life probably explains unconventional aspects of his Glasgow appointment. Brennan was an undoubted educational and social success in Russia. Events in the shape of the February Revolution of 1917 forced him to return to Britain. Glasgow’s timely offer of a new position was the start of a very different life. This aspect of Brennan’s career is reviewed mainly through his commitment to extensive public activities. KEYWORDS H.
