Book excerpt: Excerpt from University of Buffalo Studies, 1919-1920, Vol. 1 Education has always been considered in Russia, by both the autocracy and its opponents, as an eminently serious and important matter. Russian literature, all but the very lightest, has concerned itself with the question. Education and schools are Viewed, and have always been Viewed, in intimate connection with life, but the kinds of life for which the reformers and the government wished the schools to prepare were, of necessity, totally different. It was the inability of the government either to stem the tide of the revolu tionary movement, or to bring about, under 'its own direction, the necessary and widely demanded educational and social reforms which led to the present state of affairs. But it must be kept con stantly in mind that the social revolution, of which the Soviet govern ment is the culmination, began in a very real sense with Peter the Great. The present is only the historical outcome of a long and intricate struggle between the Russian people and their gbvernment which, ready more than once to fall, needed but the final and too disintegrating conditions of the World War to bring it to an end. Riit the beginning was long ago. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
