John Reed: Zehn Tage, die die Welt erschütterten – Reportage aus der Mitte der russischen Oktoberrevolution | Neu editierte 2020er-Ausgabe, in aktualisierter Rechtschreibung, mit Vorworten und einem ausführlichen Begleitwort zu John Reed | Der journalistisch brillanteste Zeitzeugenbericht über die Russische Revolution stammt von einem Amerikaner: John Reed (1887–1920) war ein linksgerichteter Journalist aus Portland, der bereits über die Revolution in Mexiko berichtet hatte und im Ersten Weltkrieg als Kriegsberichterstatter für diverse Medien unterwegs war. Er spürt, dass sich im Jahr 1917 in Russland eine große Machtverschiebung anbahnt, reist nach St. Petersburg und wird die Revolution gegen das ausbeuterische zaristische System so hautnah miterleben, wie kein anderer Berichterstatter. Er interviewt die Mächtigen, spricht mit dem Volk, den Arbeitern, Matrosen, Marktleuten. Mit einem außerordentlichen Gefühl für die Psyche der Handelnden seziert er diese Zeit des Aufbruchs, die in der Luft schwebenden Visionen, den Enthusiasmus, die Atmosphäre des Umsturzes – wie sie einem Menschen selten mehr als einmal im Leben begegnen. – Die New York Times wählte ›Ten Days that shook the World‹ im Jahr 1999 auf Platz Sieben der hundert bedeutendsten journalistischen Werke aller Zeiten. © Redaktion Kallisto Books, 2020

Аннотация

“Ten Days That Shook the World” is American journalist and socialist John Reed’s first-hand account of the Russian October Revolution of 1917. First published in 1919, Reed died soon after the book was released and was buried at the Kremlin in Moscow, one of only three Americans interred there, in tribute to his friendship with Vladimir Lenin and his important contribution to the new Soviet regime. While it was intended as an impartial and unbiased account, by Reed’s own admission, “in the struggle [his] sympathies were not neutral.” While Reed sided with the Bolsheviks and the Communist Revolution, his account of this pivotal time in world history is riveting, detailed, passionate, and brutally honest. “Ten Days That Shook the World” remains one of the most important and consequential works of American journalism and continues to influence the modern understanding of this violent and transformative time. An important historical document by an eyewitness of an event that would change the political landscape for most of the 20th century, “Ten Days That Shook the World” is a must read for those interested in communism, socialism, and how the October Revolution shaped Russian history.
