Часть текста: although many of the rich landholders in Russia passionately desire the maintenance of serfdom, no one is found to justify the institution ‒ no one to undertake its defence: not even the government. It is nevertheless a question of capital importance. Indeed, the whole Russian Question, for the present at least, may be said to be included in that of serfdom. Russia cannot make a step in advance until she has abolished slavery. The serfdom of the Russian peasant is the servitude of the Russian empire. The political and social existence of Western Europe formerly was concentrated in châteaux and in cities. It was essentially an aristocratic, or municipal existence. The peasant remained outside of the movement. The revolution took little thought of him. The sale of national property had no effect upon his condition, except to create a limited provincial bourgeoisie. The serf knew well enough that the land did not belong to him: he only looked for a personal and negative emancipation: an emancipation of the labourer. In Russia the reverse is the case. The original organization of that agricultural and communistic people was essentially democratic. There were no châteaux, very few towns, and those few nothing but large villages. No distinction existed between the peasant and the citizen. The rural commune, as it still exists, is the exact image of the great communes of Novgorod, Pskow, Kiev. Moscovite centralization, indeed, destroyed the autonomy of the towns: but the humble word commune preserved its self-government, its trial by jury, its justices of the peace, till after the reign of Ivan the Terrible: that is to say, till the XVIIth century. The soil was not as yet the subject of individual ...

Часть текста: Cambridge) and admiral Putiatin; but when friendship becomes a passion it may dim the mind as well as love or ambition. Mr. G. Williams, in the letter inserted in your esteemed journal (November 15), tries to smooth the bad impression produced on public opinion by your very truthful and beautiful correspondence concerning the Russian Universities. He says,—«The two main grievances, of which the students, had to complain at the outset were the abolition of their uniforms, and the imposition of certain tuition fees». The first assertion proves that Mr. Williams did not attentively read your correspondence; the second, that he does not understand the state of things in Russia, in spite of his having travelled in that country. The uniforms were worn by order of the government, and. during the reign of Nicholas the rules regarding them were so stringent that the uniform was for the students rather a subject of hatred than of love. Certainly, they did not much trouble themselves about the abolition of it, though they knew that in the present time it was abolished in order to excuse any aggression of the police against the students, who had the right to claim the protection of the authorities of the University. The tuition fees, however small they may seem to Mr. Williams, are too heavy for poor men in Russia; and, as the instruction in our country was a gratuitous one ever since the establishment of colleges — as the government maintains them with the State's revenues — it had no right at all to withdraw the sums destined for that purpose, and to employ them for other wants. But still the students kept the peace, and formed, in silence, a fund with voluntary contributions to help those who were not rich enough to pay the fees. Now, this fund has been seized by the government, and the new rules submitted the students to a...

Часть текста: остановиться придется возле. Места нет. О Тате я думал, что ее можно инсталлировать к 1 сент. и, стало быть, ехать отсюда в начале августа. Пиши подробнее и понятнее твой план. Ольгу целую; жду от нее письма немного поподробнее. Лиза, которая в Лозанне теперь, ей кланяется много и Мейзенбуг. Прощайте. Рукой Н. А. Герцен: 15 мая 1866 г. 7, Quai Mont Blanc. Genève. Дорогой мой Sandro-Specolino, наконец-то и получили несколько слов от тебя. Нечего мне говорить и рассказывать, как я радуюсь при одной мысли, что ты скоро приедешь. It would be awfully nice! If you don’t mean to be peevish and difficult we might arrange a jolly little uncomfortable hole for your dear bonity here! — It would be good for your pocket too. — Do, doooo come. But now, how, where, when for how long?? — Do answer quickly. As to Berthe, you know how heavily my solitude weighs upon me, I long to have a companion and friend. — I like Berthe already, for your sake and thanks to the portraits you give of her character — if they be thine my affection can only increase after personal acquaintance. It is true I’ll feel my «Zeroness» by the side of her, I am rather afraid of if. Confess it is anything but agreeble. But I hope she will be kind to me, so I will profit of her company ‑ give her my warmest, kindest regards if she still shines upon the «City of Flowers». — So we will soon see <1 нрзб.>, welcome Phoebus, we require you here — it is so cold, that I have caught a cold and must stay indoors. — And so let thv dear head be kissed by thy own sisters ruby lips and forget not to give the compliments to Schiff and C°, Levier et Berduschek. You might well send me the photographes of both. B. owes me one, promised at her goods[292]. NB Летать пишется с е. I wish you would do the same for my [293].

Часть текста: – Я сказал Ламорисиеру: «Генерал, стыдно надоедать русским республиканцам и оставлять в покое агентов русского правительства». – «А вы знаете их?» – спросил меня Ламорисиер. – «Кто их не знает!» – «Nommez-les, nommez-les [488] ». – «Ну, да Яков Толстой и генерал Жомини». – «Завтра же велю у них сделать обыск». – «Да будто Жомини русский агент?» – спросил я. – «Ха, ха, ха! Это мы увидим теперь». Вот вам человек. Рубикон был перейден, и, что я ни делал, чтобы воздержать дружбу Головина, а главное, его посещения, все было тщетно. Он раза два в неделю приходил к нам, и нравственный уровень нашего уголка тотчас понижался – начинались ссоры, сплетни, личности. Лет пять спустя, когда Головин хотел меня додразнить до драки, он говорил, что я его боюсь; говоря это, он, конечно, не подозревал, как давно я его боялся до лондонской ссоры. Еще в России я слышал об его бестактности, о нецеремонности в денежных отношениях. Шевырев, возвратившись из Парижа, рассказывал о процессе Головина с лакеем, с которым он подрался, и ставил это на счет нас, западников, к числу которых причислял Гол<овина>. Я Шевыреву заметил, что Запад следует винить только в том, что они дрались ,...
