Temple Isaiah of Great Neck will be hosting a lecture on Sunday, March 10t at 2:00 P.M. titled “Vladimir Putin’s War Against the West” presented by Ronald J. Brown, a professional historian specializing in world history and events.
Brown discusses that the Russians believe that Moscow is the Third Rome, heir to the first Rome in Italy and the Second Rome in Constantinople.
Additionally, President Putin’s imperial dreams include not only Ukraine and other eastern European realms, but Central Asia as well.
Brown poses the question – Will Putin be able to restore the ancient Russian dream of Moscow as the Third Rome and create a new empire extending as far as Central Asia?

He is the author of three books on New York City religious history, a docent at the New York History Society and a featured speaker at the New York Council for the Humanities.
