ロシアの歴史
The failure of the 1905 revolution caused Pokrovsky to emigrate, first to Finland before making his way to France in 1908. Pokrovsky would remain in French exile until the coming of the October Revolution in 1917. It was in French exile that Pokrovsky wrote his first major historiographic work, "The History of Russia from Earliest Times," published in five volumes from 1910 to 1913.
