What was Lenin's personality?
Lenin's personality is not as prominent as many other historical figures. (Such as Stalin for example). Lenin was a closed, reserved man. However, noticeable traits include his determination, high self confidence, and extreme focus. It can be said that Lenin showed an obsession with revolution and hatred of authority. Many of his traits were also his weaknesses. His determination can be seen as obsession, his self confidence as arrogance, his focus can be seen as tunnel vision. In many ways Lenin's traits led him to many mistakes, however, also led him to many successes. As I said, its not easy describing Lenin's personality, as in many ways his actions support some of his traits, yet conflict with others. Lenin was influenced by the works of Karl Marx, Nicholas (Nicholay) Chemyshevsky and his older brother Alexander who was a socialist activist.
Who tried to take power away from Lenin?
Joseph Stalin along with Grigory Zinoviev and Lev Kamenev tried to take power from Lenin when Lenin was disabled by strokes. These three ran the government in Lenin's absence as he recovered and continued to do so secretly even when Lenin returned to work. The three would make governmental decisions in secret meetings after the general meetings that Lenin attended. Stalin restricted access to Lenin when Lenin was recovering. Stalin's biggest move for power was after Lenin made him Secretary General of the Communist Party. Once in that post, Stalin placed people loyal to him in many governmental offices. Stalin never did unseat Lenin, but he certainly tried and succeeded to take at least some of Lenin's powers away.
