This 1904 Rostov-on-Don edition is a landmark early study of the Russian revolutionary movement by the German historian Alfons Thun, a professor at the University of Basel. Based on his firsthand experience living and studying in Russia, Thun's work provides a systematic and objective analysis of the development of Russian populism ("narodnichestvo") and radicalism from the 1860s to the 1880s, including the rise and activities of the "People's Will" ("Narodnaia Volia"). Published on the eve of the 1905 Revolution, this book offered one of the first comprehensive foreign scholarly perspectives on a politically explosive subject. Issued by the provincial publisher N. Paramonov, this volume is a significant artifact of pre-revolutionary Russian intellectual and publishing history, valuable for historians of the revolutionary movement, scholars of Russian-German academic relations, and collectors of early 20th-century historical works.
