Abstract
Alexander Herzen's most influential writings were the columns in the journals he edited during his exile in London in the 1850s and 1860s, Poliarnaia Zvezdaand Kolokol, which played so distinct a part in inducing members of the Russian government to prepare the emancipation of 48,000,000 serfs and the other “Great Reforms” and in persuading so much of literate Russian society to accept them. By common consent, Herzen's autobiography, My Past and Thoughts,was his great contribution to the literature of Russia and the world. Only after these does one mention his sequence of essays on the revolutions of 1848, From the Other Shore.
