This book highlights the main features and trends of Russian
"political" thought in an era when sovereignty, state, and
politics, as understood in Western Christendom, were non-existent
in Russia, or were only beginning to be articulated. It
concentrates on enigmatic authors and sources that shaped official
perception of rulership, or marked certain changes of importance of
this perception. Special emphasis is given to those written and
visual sources that point towards depersonalization and
secularization of rulership in Russia. A comparison with Western
Christendom frames the argument throughout the book, both in terms
of ideas and the practical aspects of state-building, allowing the
reader to ponder Russia's differentia specifica.
