Not following in the footsteps of ones father is not an entirely new concept,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Holy Fathers, Secular Sons: Clergy, Intelligentsia, and the Modern Self in Revolutionary Russia (Studies of the Harriman Institute) (Studies of the Harriman Institute) (Hardcover)
Not following in the footsteps of ones father is not an entirely new concept, says "Holy Fathers, Secular Sons: Clergy, Intelligentsia, and the Modern Self in Revolutionary Russia". Around 1860, the sons of clergymen were allowed to leave the strict caste of the clergy to pursue their own interests if they so pleased. What followed was an interesting endeavor where the sons began to push social reform throughout the country, and interestingly enough, did so by retaining the values of the Russian Orthodox Church. "Holy Fathers, Secular Sons: Clergy, Intelligentsia, and the Modern Self in Russia" is a must have for community library collections on history for tackling an event that's so under covered by most libraries.
