Часть текста: Gervinus The time has come when Russian serfdom should be made, if not an European, at least an English question. London, which has become the permanent oecumenical seat of council for all movements of liberty, emancipation, progression, can scarcely remain indifferent to such a question as that of white slavery in Russia[1]. White slavery in Russia has been too little attacked: perhaps because it has not been defended with the fierce tenacity of Transatlantic slaveholders. For it is to be remarked, that 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. ...

Часть текста: и дерзкого человека, которую он себе сделал. Он был у Ламорисиера, хлопотал без малейшей просьбы с моей стороны о моих бумагах, ничего не сделал и пришел ко мне пожать скромные лавры благодарности и, пользуясь тем, втеснить мне свое знакомство. – 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 ...

Часть текста: Я решился писать; но одно воспоминание вызывало сотни других, все старое, полузабытое воскресало – отроческие мечты, юношеские надежды, удаль молодости, тюрьма и ссылка [217] – эти ранние несчастия, не оставившие никакой горечи на душе, пронесшиеся, как вешние грозы, освежая и укрепляя своими ударами молодую жизнь. Я не имел сил отогнать эти тени, – пусть они светлыми сенями, думалось мне, встречают в книге, как было на самом деле. Ия стал писать с начала; пока я писал две первые части, прошли несколько месяцев поспокойнее… Цепкая живучесть человека всего более видна в невероятной силе рассеяния и себяоглушения. Сегодня пусто, вчера страшно, завтра безразлично; человек рассеивается, перебирая давно прошедшее, играя на собственном кладбище… Лондон, 1 мая 1854 г. <Предисловие к английскому изданию> Preface In order to write down one’s own recollections, it is by no means necessary to be a great man, or an extraordinary villain; a celebrated artist, or a statesman; it is enough to be merely a man, to have something to tell, and to be able and willing to tell it. Every existence is interesting; if not on account of the person, yet on account of the country, the epoch in which he lives. Man likes to penetrate into the inward life of another; he likes to touch the most delicate chord of another heart, to watch its beatings and penetrate its secrets, in order to compare, to verify, to seek a justification, a consolation, a proof of conformity. Memoirs, however, can be tiresome, the life of which they speak can be poor, insignificant. Then do not read them; that is the heaviest punishment to be inflicted upon a book. And as to that, no special right...

Часть текста: M.» endeavours to excite a feeling against him at the risk of rendering his position worse. He says that the accomplices of Bakunin at Dresden have been put to death; while he, who was taken with arms in his hand, still lives. It is not true that Bakunin was taken with arms in his hand. Ho was arrested 12 miles from Dresden. The Prussians, who shot the combatants, only ruled at Dresden for three days. Bakunin did not appear before the Prussian military tribunal, but before the Saxon tribunals, which have not executed any one of his accomplices. «But why has not Russia applied the knout to Bakunin?» «F. M.» asks himself, who does not know that the Russian nobles are exempted from corporal punishment. And what has been the crime of Bakunin against Russia? His acts in Saxony and Austria are not, and cannot be, incriminated in Russia. When individuals have the rooted ideas which «F. M.» entertains, it is not usual to entertain the public with the fancy of suspicions. We invite him to retract his calumny against a man whose devotion to his political convictions has led him into this misfortune, and We remain, Sir, your obedient servants. Ivan Golovine. Alexander Herzen. 27-th August 1853. P. S. Mazzini has requested us to add his signature to our last declaration. ________ ПЕРЕВОД КТО ТАКОЙ «Ф. М.»? (издателю «the morning advertiser») Милостивый государь, защитники Бакунина называют себя; обвинитель же продолжает скрываться за инициалами, которые, возможно, и не принадлежат ему. Мы предоставляем английской публике самой судить о щекотливости такого приема. Предъявить...

Часть текста: 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...

Часть текста: HERZEN — TO THE EDITOR OF «THE GLOBE» Cholmondely Lodge, Richmond, 23 d. oct. 1855. Sir, — it was not until to-day that I had the pleasure of reading the favourable mention made in your esteemed paper on the 15-th instant, of the English translation of my Memoirs. While thanking you, I am anxious to say that the title given by myself and repeated by the «Révue des Deux Mondes», was «Prison and Exile». The editor of a German translation (Hoffmann and Campe, Hamburg), thought it necessary to add the words «in Siberia», which are not to be found anywhere in my own writing of the title. The editor of an English translation has done the same thing. The observation made in your journal is perfectly correct. I only went as far as the Uralian Mountains. I have never been in Siberia. But the title rests entirely on the responsibility of the editors, and I avail myself immediately of this opportunity of saying so. — Accept, etc. etc. Alexander Herzen. P. S. You will oblige me if you will publish this letter, and you will oblige me doubly by having it translated into English. Unfortunately I know the language too imperfectly to write it. ___________ ПЕРЕВОД АЛЕКСАНДР ГЕРЦЕН ‒ ИЗДАТЕЛЮ «THE GLOBE» Чолмондели Лодж, Ричмонд, 23 октября 1855. Милостивый государь! Только сегодня я имел удовольствие прочитать в вашей уважаемой газете от 15 текущего месяца благоприятный отзыв об английском переводе моих мемуаров. Приношу вам свою благодарность и в...
