War, Progress, and the End of History

Description:

Living in the tumultous times of the late 1800s, Solovyov felt the winds of change in his Russia. He knew revolution and more war was imminent, and a tremondos ideological shift was about to occur: he intuited this, feeling but unable to know. He stood at the cusp of change--the romanticism of the end of the last century, to the horror of the next (re. Hitler, Stalin,etc.). He knew there would be a falling away from the truth to delusion. This inner knowing was almost to much for him, expressing himself in that meloncholic writing style seen later with Alexander Solzinytzen in the 1970s. Harry Laine
