Super rare ALS in French, signed “A. Herzen,” one page, 7.25 x 9, December 24, 1858. Letter with extremely interesting content, referring to Tsar Alexander II and to the emancipation of the serfs, Herzen’s greatest cause. In part (translated): "How can you ask which one is the relation between the 'Bell' and the Emperor Alex. and his ministers? Alex's ministers are either idiots or thieves. They are enemies of the emancipation of peasants. Alex is better, but he is of such a feminine weakness…thus the necessity of chasing the rascals around him and urge the emancipation movement." In fine condition, with a long diagonal crease.
