内容简介:
It is history on an epic yet human scale. Vast in scope,
exhaustive in original research, written with passion, narrative
skill, and human sympathy, A People's Tragedy is a profound account
of the Russian Revolution for a new generation. Many consider the
Russian Revolution to be the most significant event of the
twentieth century. Distinguished scholar Orlando Figes presents a
panorama of Russian society on the eve of that revolution, and then
narrates the story of how these social forces were violently
erased. Within the broad stokes of war and revolution are miniature
histories of individuals, in which Figes follows the main players'
fortunes as they saw their hopes die and their world crash into
ruins. Unlike previous accounts that trace the origins of the
revolution to overreaching political forces and ideals, Figes
argues that the failure of democracy in 1917 was deeply rooted in
Russian culture and social history and that what had started as a
people's revolution contained the seeds of its degeneration into
violence and dictatorship. A People's Tragedy is a masterful and
original synthesis by a mature scholar, presented in a compelling
and accessibly human narrative.

Written in a narrative style that captures both the scope and
detail of the Russian revolution, Orlando Figes's history is
certain to become one of the most important contemporary studies of
Russia as it was at the beginning of the 20th century. With an
almost cinematic eye, Figes captures the broad movements of war and
revolution, never losing sight of the individuals whose lives make
up his subject. He makes use of personal papers and personal
histories to illustrate the effects the revolution wrought on a
human scale, while providing a convincing and detailed
understanding of the role of workers, peasants, and soldiers in the
revolution. He moves deftly from topics such as the grand social
forces and mass movements that made up the revolution to profiles
of key personalities and representative characters.
Figes's themes of the Russian revolution as a tragedy for the
Russian people as a whole and for the millions of individuals who
lost their lives to the brutal forces it unleashed make sense of
events for a new generation of students of Russian history.
Sympathy for the charismatic leaders and ideological theorizing
regarding Hegelian dialectics and Marxist economics--two hallmarks
of much earlier writing on the Russian revolution--are banished
from these clear-eyed, fair-minded pages of A People's Tragedy. The
author's sympathy is squarely with the Russian people. That
commitment, together with the benefit of historical hindsight,
provides a standpoint Figes take full advantage of in this
masterful history. --This text refers to an out of print or

媒体评论
A soft focus on Lenin has, for the most part, suffused accounts
of the Soviet Union. He has been portrayed as a man drawn into
revolutionary activity by the death of his brother and driven by a
selfless desire to improve the lot of working people. As for the
undeniable violence of his rule, this was often explained away. . .
. Orlando Figes, a fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, is
properly skeptical of such excuses. In A People's Tragedy, he has
produced an engagingly written and well-researched book that will
leave few readers with any doubts that the Bolsheviks, and
especially their leader Lenin, were ruthless killers, willing to
sacrifice millions of lives for the sake of power and their own
personal ambitions. . . . Figes has written a marvelous account of
one of history's greatest tragedies, and his book will stand for
some time as a standard of historical scholarship. -- The New York
Times Book Review, Steven Merritt Miner
What explains the terrible trajectory taken by the Russian
Revolution of 1917?
This question has tended to divide students of the Russian past
into two opposing camps. There are those, like the historian
Richard Pipes, who find in the Communist dictatorship and the
descent into the gulag a deep impress of the old czarist autocracy
and the old patrimonial state. And there are those, like Aleksandr
Solzhenitsyn, who claim that that same dictatorship represented
instead a fulfillment of the vision of Karl Marx and thus a radical
break in Russian history. A British historian, Orlando Figes, has
now entered the fray with A People's Tragedy, a 900-page history of
the Russian debacle. It succeeds handsomely as an engrossing
account of the revolution, but falls short of its implicit goal of
resolving this great historiographical debate.
Figes's particular method is to embark on a social-political
narrative that takes us from the Volga famine through the next
decades, highlighting the upheavals of peasant life, the rise of a
class of liberal gentry and professionals, the subversive role
played by radical intellectuals and revolutionaries, and the
debilitating split between reformers and absolutists within the
imperial regime itself. It then proceeds through World War I and
the two revolutions of 1917 and brings the story to a close in 1924
with Lenin's death, when the fundamental elements of the
totalitarian order that came to be known as Stalinism were all in
place.
A People's Tragedy never does arrive at a convincing interpretive
equilibrium. Still, it has its unmistakable virtues. For one thing,
Figes richly conveys the human dimensions of the catastrophe. For
another, he powerfully brings home the blindness of the imperial
authorities as well as the brutal illiberalism of revolutionary
activists, and he clarifies the way in which these two forces
conspired together to transform a chaotic social revolution into an
unparalleled political calamity. If he has not resolved one of the
more long-standing debates about the Bolshevik Revolution, he has,
at the very least, helped pave the way for future attempts. --
