From Romanovs to Reds: Russia's Revolutions at 100 (a History Talk Podcast)

Описание: In February 1917, the 300-year reign of the Romanov dynasty ended. Eight months later in October, Bolshevik forces led by Vladimir Lenin seized power, establishing the world's first state operated on Marxist principles. In the aftermath, a myriad of political, economic, social, and cultural changes reshaped life inside Russia as the establishment of the Soviet Union upended the global order. To mark the 100-year anniversary of the Russian Revolutions, hosts Brenna Miller and Jessica Viñas-Nelson interview expert guests Drs. Angela Brintlinger, Nicholas Breyfogle, and Stephen Norris. Join us to explore the causes of the Russian Revolutions, their profound consequences, and how the world is remembering their centennial anniversary today.

Guests:
Angela Brintlinger - Professor of Russian Literature and Culture in the Ohio State University Department of Slavic and East European Studies.

Nicholas Breyfogle - Associate Professor in the Department of History at the Ohio State University specializing in Russian Imperial History.

Stephen Norris - Professor of History at Miami University in Ohio specializing in Russian and post-Soviet studies.
