This collection of journalistic articles, speeches, and essays by the great Russian Symbolist poet Alexander Blok (1880–1921) was published in Berlin in 1920 by the émigré "Skify" (Scythians) press. The texts were written at the fatal intersection of the 1917 Revolution and the Civil War, capturing Blok’s profound and conflicted meditation on the fate of Russia, the role of the intelligentsia, and the revolutionary cataclysm. Criticizing both the "Red Terror" and general anarchy, the book was censored in the Soviet Union in the 1920s. As one of the first post-revolutionary émigré editions of Blok’s prose, it is a key document of the Silver Age’s intellectual legacy and the early diaspora’s effort to preserve contested voices. It remains an essential text for understanding the spiritual and political crisis of the Russian intelligentsia.
