Language and Culture in Eighteenth-Century Russia
Author: Victor Zhivov
Publisher: Studies in Russian and Slavic
ISBN: 9781618118073
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 524
Book Description
Victor Zhivov's Language and Culture in Eighteenth-Century Russia is one of the most important studies ever published on eighteenth-century Russia. Historians and students of Russian culture agree that the creation of a Russian literary language was key to the formation of a modern secular culture, and this title traces the growth of a vernacular language from the "hybrid Slavonic" of the late seventeenth century through the debates between "archaists and innovators" of the early nineteenth century. Zhivov's study is an essential work on the genesis of modern Russian culture; the aim of this translation is to make it available to historians and students of the field.

This is a collection of thirteen major essays on eighteenth-century Russia by one of the most distinguished Western historians.

The First Epoch
Author: Luba Golburt
Publisher: University of Wisconsin Pres
ISBN: 0299298140
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
In the shadow of Pushkin's Golden Age, Russia's eighteenth-century culture was relegated to an obscurity hardly befitting its actually radical legacy. Why did nineteenth-century Russians put the eighteenth century so quickly behind them? How does a meaningful present become a seemingly meaningless past? Interpreting texts by Lomonosov, Derzhavin, Pushkin, Viazemsky, Turgenev, Tolstoy, and others, Luba Golburt finds surprising answers.

The Russian Empire in the Eighteenth Century: Tradition and Modernization
Author: Aleksandr Kamenskii
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317454693
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
Russia's 18th-century drive toward modernity and empire under the two "greats" - Peter I and Catherine II - is captured in this work by one of Russia's outstanding young historians. The author develops three themes: Russia's relationship to the West; the transformation of "Holy Russia" into a multinational empire; and the effects of efforts to modernize Russia selectively along Western lines. Writing in a clear, crisp style, Kamenskii enlivens the narrative with observations from contemporary literary figures and political commentators that point up the lasting significance of the events he describes.
