Description
The personality of the first Russian tsar, Ivan the Terrible, has always been a mystery to historians. No one could determine with certainty either his psychological portrait or his statecraft abilities with the clarity required by scientific knowledge. Some portrayed him as an advanced, not fully understood person, while others saw him as limited—and even insane. Some highlighted the mismatch between Ivan the Terrible’s mental potential and the weakness of his will. Such characteristics can sometimes be witty and plausible, but they are also arbitrary: the nature of Ivan the Terrible’s character remains a mystery to everyone.
Henri Troyat, having analyzed many existing sources, created his own version of the personality and era of Tsar Ivan IV’s rule—presenting it for the readers’ judgment.
