from the book of" The history of corporal punishment in Russia",1913

in history •  6 years ago 

Many and various people have mutilated people in Moscow Russia. Under the patronage and encouragement of the royal authority, for large and small guilt, they snapped hands and feet, turned the human body into some formless stump. But much more widespread still was punishment at that time simply by beatings. If a person with nostrils torn out or without an ear was a very ordinary sight, then a man without scars on his back, who did not experience any beatings, was rare. ”
