The struggle for Smolensk (XVl-XVll cc.)
14.99 €
The struggle for Smolensk, rightly called "the key to Moscow", its accession to Moscow in the early 16th century and its loss in the early 17th century are associated with two important stages of national history - the gathering of Russian lands around Moscow and the crisis of the emerging Russian statehood. It is the events related to Smolensk that are discussed in detail in the proposed book. Published in 1940, the work has not been reprinted since then, and to the reader, unaccustomed to the indispensable in those days citation of texts of Marxist classics and class approach, it may seem strange, but all this is more than compensated by the coverage and reference to many rare historical sources. An epic historical canvas unfolds before us, packed with many interesting details. Everyday life, betrayal and heroic deeds neighbor on the pages of the book.
