For your third blog post, use the resources in Seventeen Moments of Soviet History (1917) and Module Three of the Digital History Reader (1917 – Did the War Cause a Revolution?) to examine a significant aspect of the Russian Revolution.  You should also consult the Freeze text (the last part of the Chapter 8 and Chapter 9 up to the October Revolution).

You may focus on an event, a development or an individual. (We will talk in class about how to identify a topic and use the Seventeen Moments website.) Your post should use (and cite) primary sources (texts, music, or images). You may also use a particular image or primary document as a focal point for your post. In any case, your post should address some aspect of the following question:

What was the relative importance of immediate events, long-term social and economic developments, the crisis in political authority, and the stresses of the war to the revolutions of February and October, 1917?
