NotesAn indispensable reference source for the history, politics, economics, religion and philosophy of the last century and a half. The definitive English edition. All Russian has been transliterated and appears in a green font. All italicized Russian has been transliterated as if it were not italicized. All transliterated Russian is linked to a popup window in which the user may view the Cyrillic. All Greek appears unaccented using the Symbol font. However all Greek text is linked to a popup window in which the accented Greek may be viewed. |
The translation . . . is masterly; not only faultless but immensely readable and displaying a fine ingenuity in making sense of the more abstruse—or merely tougher—Teutonic constructions. |
