*From The Pen Of Early Soviet Culture Commissar Anatol Lunacharsky- Yulii Martov

Click on title to link to early Bolshevik Culture and Education Commissar Anatol Lunacharsky's profile of left-Menshevik leader Yulii Martov from his 1923 "Revolutionary Silhouettes". Lunarcharsky may have been a "soft" Bolshevik but he had insights into the Bolshevik leadership (and here into the 'softness' of the best of the Menshevik leadership) that helped explain the successes (and some of the subsequent political problems) of that leadership.
