Book Description:

The authors in this anthology dispel the illusion that if communism failed in Russia it was due to an accident of history, having been tried in the wrong country and implemented by incompetent leaders. The evidence presented here should demonstrate that its failure was not only inevitable, but also anticipated long before it occurred.

Author Biography
(Editor)
Until World War I, Krasinski was considered, together with Adam Mickiewicz and Slowacki, a national "poet-seer." At present his reputation has been significantly diminished, but he is rightly viewed as a major figure of the romantic period. His best work, the poetic drama The Undivine Comedy 1835), deals with the problem of a poet's moral responsibility in a social framework (an important romantic dilemma) and with the problems of revolution. Iridion (1836), another poetic drama, is set in third-century Rome.
