Vladimir C. Nahirny's brilliant study of major issues in Russian
social and intellectual history synthesizes historical and
sociological perspectives in an analysis of the nineteenth century
Russian intelligentsia. He clarifies the concept of the
intelligentsia itself, analyzes findings bearing on the social
origins of different generations of intelligentsia, and enlarges
understanding of conditions that facilitated the emergence of
ideological groups among them. The Russian Intelligentsia develops
a conceptually focused view of this distinct social group, arguing
that the Russian intelligentsia can best be understood on the basis
of orientation to ideas rather than on social or occupational
position. Rather than simply providing an intellectual history or
biographical sketches of major figures, Nahirny illuminates these
concepts through data, creating an immersive context unlike other
discussions of these groups. This book was, and will be, of
interest to those interested in the problematic and contradictory
social-political roles of intellectuals during this time.
