The French page on this is an utter stub. Could a native French speaker translate what we have here? seglea 20:59, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Identification of "Romans, France"[edit]

I have pointed the link on "Romans" (town in France) to Romans, Deux-Sèvres. If anyone believes this to be incorrect please revise the link. ("Romans" as such is a disambiguation page, not an article.) Thanks. --Disambiguation link repair - You can help! --Iggle 08:35, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just to add an English translation to the bibliography. "Le Climat depuis l'an Mil" exists in an English translation: Le Roy Ladurie, E., Times of Feast, Times of Famine: A History of Climate since the Year 1000, trans. Barbara Bray (London, 1972).

Key Source[edit]

This article and the bibliography seems to be very similar to the section on Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie in Marnie Hughes-Warrington's Fifty Key Thinkers in History. Perhaps a reference is needed if that is true? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ekkr (talkcontribs) 23:39, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bukharin's torture[edit]

The reference to Bukharin's reason for confession requires citation, in my opinion, and the fact of his torture by the NKVD far as I know is not supported or at least contested. See, for example: Hellbeck, Jochen. “With Hegel to Salvation: Bukharin's Other Trial.” Representations, vol. 107, no. 1, 2009, pp. 56–90. JSTOR, www.jstor.org/stable/10.1525/rep.2009.107.1.56

I would remove the phrase "but the truth was rather more brutal and sordid: Bukharin had been psychologically "broken" after months of torture by the NKVD, and had been reduced to such a state that he was willing to "confess" to anything", what to replace it with, if anything. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LemuelCushing (talkcontribs) 13:51, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
