Wie ich die Revolution erlebte
How I experienced the Revolution

Summary/Abstract: On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution, the magazine "Osteuropa" publishes two special issues, "Experienced Red October" (9/1967) and "The World - 50 Years After Red October" (10/11, 1967). The present first issue deviates from our customs in two respects: instead of the present it is focused on the past, on the time around October 1917, furthermore it does not contain any investigations based on sources, but private recollections from eyewitnesses of the events of that time. Most of the authors are Germans, many of them longstanding members of the publisher of our journal, the „Deutsche Gesellschaft für Osteuropakunde“, or even their predecessor, the German Society for the Study of Eastern Europe, who here for the first time hand over their memories of that time to the public.
