Serfdom
9.99 €
One of the ugliest phenomena in the life of Russia in the 18th and 19th centuries was serfdom. The unresolved land issue was one of the causes of the 1917 Revolution, so serfdom influenced Russian society even after its abolition. In history and literature classes, schoolchildren are told about the stages of serfdom and legislative reforms, but what lies behind the dry lines of textbooks? The new book of the series "The Complete History of Epochs" is not just a study of how and why the institution of serfdom in Russia was formed and developed, but also an attempt to follow the fate of specific people, broken by the unjust structure of society. Interesting historical facts, portraits of landlords and prominent serfs, a description of the psychology and worldview of the time - this is what you will find on the pages of the book.
- Who did Praskovya Zhemchugova really love?
- Could a serf pull a sick tooth without the landlord's permission?
- Who was nicknamed "vicious chamberlain"?
- Who helped the painter Tropinin to get a free license?
