Life

Anastassija Alexejewna Bizenko grew up in a farming family in the Ukraine. Like her husband, she was a member of the Social Revolutionary Party .

On November 22, 1905, she committed an assassination attempt on Adjutant General Viktor Sakharov , who was known as the "butcher of Saratov ". The court initially sentenced her to death for murder. She was exiled to Siberia on the basis of petitions that argued with her "insufficient intellectual development" and her "female gender". She spent the exile with five other women, all of whom belonged to the revolutionary underground and who became known as the Schesterka (Russian: six), including Maria Alexandrovna Spiridonova . During her trial, Bizenko refused to reveal her identity for months and stood before the court as a nameless person.

After her liberation through the revolution in 1917, Anastassija Alexejewna Bizenko was appointed as the only woman in the delegation that negotiated the Brest-Litovsk peace treaty and in which she represented the party of the Left Social Revolutionaries . During the negotiations with the Germans, her party rejected the peace treaty, and Bizenko joined the party of revolutionary communism , a splinter group of the former left social revolutionaries. She later joined the CPSU .

In 1938, Bizenko was shot in the course of the Stalinist purges and buried near Kommunarka .
