Readings on the Russian Revolution brings together 15 important post-Cold War writings on the history of the Russian Revolution. It is structured in such a way as to highlight key debates in the field and contrasting methodological approaches to the Revolution in order to help readers better understand the issues and interpretative fault lines that exist in this contested area of history.The book opens with an original introduction which provides essential background and vital context for the pieces that follow. The volume is then structured around four parts - ’Actors, Language, Symbols’, ’War, Revolution, and the State’, ’Revolutionary Dreams and Identities’ and ’Outcomes and Impacts’ - that explore the beginnings, events and outcomes of the Russian Revolution, as well as examinations of central figures, critical topics and major historiographical battlegrounds. Melissa Stockdale also provides translations of two crucial Russian-language works, published here in English for the first time, and includes useful pedagogical features such as a glossary, chronology, and thematic bibliography to further aid study.Readings on the Russian Revolution is an essential collection for anyone studying the Russian Revolution.
