History EN ↓ Odcinki: 103

The episode and episode descriptions will provide information, context and commentary on how each chapter plays out. The goal is for each episode to be under 10 minutes. There are multiple English versions of W&P containing variations in the translation of Tolstoy's French and Russian. The original work fluctuates back and forth between these two languages. There are also variations on how War & Peace is chaptered. This podcast follows the commonly used chapters contained in Penguin Classics and the Everyman's Library.
