An original and thought-provoking text, Russian and Soviet History
uses noteworthy themes and important events from Russian history to
spark classroom discussion. Consisting of twenty essays written by
experts in each area, the book does not simply repeat the
conventional themes found in nearly all Russian history texts,
anthologies, and documentary compilations. Rather, it showcases
current thinking on Russian cultural, political, economic, and
social history from the end of the sixteenth century to the demise
of the Soviet "experiment." Informed by archival work in the former
Soviet Union and a broad range of published sources, this book is
intended to introduce students to Russian history in an accessible
and provocative format. Its eclectic essays offer readers an
incomparable taste of the complexity and richness of Russia as it
has evolved from late Muscovy to the modern era. This text is
perfect for undergraduate and graduate students in Russian history
and is a great resource for scholars in the field. Contributions
