The Romanov Dynasty
The Romanov Dynasty
Discuss: If the Romanovs hadn’t been toppled by the Bolshevik Revolution, would Russia be better off today? They were dethroned, of course, after ruling Russia for three centuries. Was it their own fault, or proof of that axiom: Absolute power corrupts absolutely? Had they fostered the class division — depicted poignantly in 1925’s Strike by Sergei Eisenstein — that led to their own downfall? Even if those questions aren’t answered, considering the current geopolitical landscape, this lecture and conversation promises to be worthwhile.
