This collector's edition continues the collected works of the renowned Soviet historian and academician Yevgeny Viktorovich Tarle (1874–1955). A brilliant teacher, he possessed a literary talent unparalleled for a scholar, while remaining a highly respected expert in Russian historical scholarship, utterly devoted to historical truth. His popularizing style, lively language, and narrative dynamism, combined with strict, meticulous adherence to facts, place his works on a par with those of the great N. M. Karamzin, V. O. Klyuchevsky, and N. I. Kostomarov.
The sixth volume of this collected works presents "Talleyrand," in which Tarle explores the life and career of one of Europe's most outstanding and controversial diplomats, who, deftly adapting to the changing political regimes in turbulent France at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, managed to maintain his position at the very pinnacle of power for decades. This work is supplemented in this edition by articles and lectures by Tarle, which reveal the intricacies of European diplomacy during the same period.

Anniversary Collected Works" series is an exclusive book collection dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the birth of the renowned Soviet historian Yevgeny Viktorovich Tarle.
