Ozymandias - An Ordeal in Prague Pt 1 Ozymandias

    • History

This Statue of Liberation: when it was built, why it was built, and the story of its removal involves two biographies, one of Marshal Ivan Konev himself & one of Vaclev Havel. Both of these men are 20th century giants, but their history continues as a 21st century drama. An Ordeal in Prague, a clash of geographies, ideologies & lasting legacies shows us the light of liberalism and the shadow of authoritarianism.
