He is known for his books about Napoleon’s invasion of Russia and on the Crimean War, and many other works. Eugene Tarle was one of the founders of the Moscow State Institute of International Relations, Russia’s diplomatic university. He was considered the outstanding authority on the economic and social forces behind the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Era.
Born Grigory Tarle in Kiev, Russian Empire (modern-day Ukraine) into a prosperous Jewish family, he graduated from Kiev University in 1896. He lectured on history at St. Petersburg University until 1905, when he was badly wounded during a political demonstration. From 1909 he began to devote his time to the history of France and became greatly interested in the economic aspects of the French Revolution—its commerce, industry and the condition of the working class at this period.
In 1918 Tarle was appointed Professor of History at the University of St. Petersburg and in 1923 was elected a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences, becoming a regular Academician four years later. From 1927 he headed the Section of Universal History of the Leningrad Historical Research Institute. He was also a member of the American Academy of Political Science.
Tarle died in Moscow on January 6, 1955.
