Dr. Istvan Deak, Seth Low Professor of History, Columbia University:

““… an eminently objective, well balanced, and interesting presentation of a complex story which, by itself, is full of pitfalls. The film pays equal attention to political, institutional, social, and cultural history, but what catches the eye and ears of the viewer are the parts dealing with the arts and culture …”

Prof. Gustav Bayerle, Central Eurasian Studies, Indiana University-Boomington:

““… not only very educational, but also entertaining and of high artistic and professional quality. Nowadays students can relate better to visual images than to the written word and I found that even months later at final exam time they seemed to be better prepared on the periods covered by the cassettes."
