Tales of Three Centuries (Classic Reprint) by Michael Zagoskin Pdf

Excerpt from Tales of Three Centuries The few explanations which may be of use in this volume will be arranged best, no doubt, in the same sequence as the divisions of the book itself. I may begin, therefore, by stating that the town of Serdobsk can be found on any good map of Russia in the part devoted to the government of Samara, in which is indicated also the river Hopyor, which falls into the Don. Kolchugin's adventures in the first tale were caused by Suvoroff and the colonel's wife on the one hand, and by Pan Dubitski and the magician Tvardovski on the other. Whatever the positions may have been which they held during life, the Russian lady who so clung to her husband, whether from fondness or love of rule, and the unwilling host at Byali Folvark are very obscure persons now, and need no comment. With the other two characters the case is far different. Suvoroff's fame is increasing; even the present year has seen a new and elaborate biography of him by an English officer. Tvardovski, though little known beyond Poland and Russia, will receive justice outside the Slav world whenever his story is fittingly told.

An Infinite History by Emma Rothschild Pdf

An innovative history of deep social and economic changes in France, told through the story of a single extended family across five generations Marie Aymard was an illiterate widow who lived in the provincial town of Angoulême in southwestern France, a place where seemingly nothing ever happened. Yet, in 1764, she made her fleeting mark on the historical record through two documents: a power of attorney in connection with the property of her late husband, a carpenter on the island of Grenada, and a prenuptial contract for her daughter, signed by eighty-three people in Angoulême. Who was Marie Aymard? Who were all these people? And why were they together on a dark afternoon in December 1764? Beginning with these questions, An Infinite History offers a panoramic look at an extended family over five generations. Through ninety-eight connected stories about inquisitive, sociable individuals, ending with Marie Aymard’s great-great granddaughter in 1906, Emma Rothschild unfurls an innovative modern history of social and family networks, emigration, immobility, the French Revolution, and the transformation of nineteenth-century economic life. Rothschild spins a vast narrative resembling a period novel, one that looks at a large, obscure family, of whom almost no private letters survive, whose members traveled to Syria, Mexico, and Tahiti, and whose destinies were profoundly unequal, from a seamstress living in poverty in Paris to her third cousin, the cardinal of Algiers. Rothschild not only draws on discoveries in local archives but also uses new technologies, including the visualization of social networks, large-scale searches, and groundbreaking methods of genealogical research. An Infinite History demonstrates how the ordinary lives of one family over three centuries can constitute a remarkable record of deep social and economic changes.
