Hello Fellow Listmembers,

While preparing our Museum's interpreters for yesterday living history
appearance, I supposed it could be appropriate to prepare them with some
analogy for their time (1895). If necessary and if asked about, they could
compare public views of pictures from NY WTC towers today with some
imagined newspaper article from their time, reporting some European
incident with Russian anarchists involved.

This historical perspective seems fruitful for interpretation of the
current events, because the concept of political terrorism, as well as the
term for intelligentsia itself, are usually described as results of
political struggle under Russian empire during the late part of 19th century.

But, at this time, schedule was diverse and too short for this issue.
Maybe somebody connected with re-enactments can figure out this comparation
for his or her sake.
Sincerely,

Jadran Kale
