Orlando Figes\u00a0(born 20 November 1959) is a famous modern British historian. from 1987 to 1999 he was a\u00a0Lecturer\u00a0in History and\u00a0Fellow\u00a0at\u00a0Trinity College,\u00a0University of Cambridge\u00a0, before taking the Chair as Professor of History at\u00a0Birkbeck College, University of London.\u00a0Figes became known for his work :\u00a0A People’s Tragedy\u00a0(1996),\u00a0a study of the\u00a0Russian Revolution, combines\u00a0social\u00a0and\u00a0political history\u00a0with biographical details in a historical narrative. Almost a thousand-page book written by a specialist quickly became a bestseller.<\/span><\/p>\n Published in 2002,\u00a0Natasha’s Dance\u00a0is a broad cultural history of Russia, here interest of the historian moved from politics to culture. This book also had a great success. Ten years after the publication, the film director\u00a0Joe Wright\u00a0revealed\u00a0that in understanding of 19th century Russian Culture, for his 2012 film\u00a0Anna Karenina, Natasha\u2019s Dance and its author were the inspirations. Indeed, this is one of the most critical analysis of Russian Culture, written with a perfect knowledge of a material and upon virtuous possession of instruments of a modern theoretical reflexion. Not only the content stands behind the success of a book, but completely perfect style, that make readers read the\u00a0\u00a0work as a novel.<\/p>\n\n [wpai_display_imported_files_here]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" February 5, 18:00, ISU Bookstore “Ligamus will host the presentation…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19846,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[67],"tribe_events_cat":[51],"class_list":["post-14802","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-qaz-en","tribe_events_cat-events","cat_events"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/14802","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14802"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/14802\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14802"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14802"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=14802"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
