The Slavic Dandy and the Russian Revolution

There was always this suspicion of the West a lot of this the Russians come by honestly how much of this lingering to this day is a vestige of Napoleonic times. There was an attempt in reaction against the French Revolution,. Annals and Napoleon, there was an attempt to russify Petrian culture by which I mean the culture centered on St Petersburg so to talk in Russian you might remember from war and peace it starts much of it in French then move slowly through the novel into more and more in a horrific Russian speech.
