| Abstract: |
In the history of calendrical reforms the Julian calendar that prevailed for centuries was gradually replaced by the Gregorian one from 1582 onwards. After these two calendars, some other calendrical systems were introduced in Europe, none of which prevailed beyond its limited (in time and place) political environment. In this work the following such unsuccessful calendars are reviewed: The French Revolutionary Calendar, the Theosebic Calendar invented by Th. Kairis and the Revolutionary Calendar of the Soviet Union. |
