At this meeting we will be moving into the 1917 Revolution, reading and discussing chapters 1, 3, and 5 of Lenin's (1917) and Gorky's "Karamora" (1925) (attached to this email). We additionally suggest that, to help understand the context in which Lenin was writing, you read chapter 2 of Sheila Fitzpatrick's The Russian Revolution (also attached here). We aren't planning on setting aside discussion time specifically for the Fitzpatrick (though by all means bring any questions, comments, or thoughts she may raise!), but we think it will be useful for our discussion and analysis of Lenin.
We look forward to seeing you on April 19th! Please email me (Nora) if you plan on attending so that I can order appropriate amounts of food and drink.
