This collection of "Stitesiana" includes twenty-nine essays on
Russian culture, which the author desired to be collected and
published in a single volume. This collection represents the bulk
of twenty years of scholarship, besides the well-known monographs,
which includes book chapters in collective volumes and scholarly
journals, and diverse pieces in popular magazines. Some of these
essays appeared before the monographs did, and illustrate how
Stites worked with his material, presented it, and allowed it to be
utilized.
Six essays set forth Stites's approach to cultural history and
cover great deal of ground and time. The second set is related to
"Revolutionary Dreams," and fall into two categories: futurism and
science fiction, and rituals and symbols. The next grouping
comprises a diverse set of essays related to "Russian Popular
Culture," which he conceived as seed with more to follow. The final
set corresponds to "Serfdom, Society, and the Arts in Imperial
Russia."
