Ekaterina Furtseva. A Woman in Power
49.99 €
Ekaterina Furtseva has remained in Russian history as "Ekaterina III". In this way she was associated with Catherine the Great and with Catherine Dashkova, who headed the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences.Having started her career "from the machine", she found herself at the top of the party hierarchy in the crucial years of Khrushchev's rule. Her ouster from the political Olympus was a personal tragedy for her, but the path of the woman-legend was just beginning.The role she was to play as Minister of Culture overshadowed the career achievements of many of her successful contemporaries. For through her mouth the authorities spoke to the intelligentsia in the language not of threats and directives, but of dialog and persuasion. Ekaterina Furtseva truly loved her work.
