This publication in three volumes originated in papers delivered at
two conferences held in May 1988 at the University of California,
Berkeley, and the Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies in
Washington, DC. Like many other conferences organized that year in
the United States, Europe, and the Soviet Union, they were convened
to commemorate the millennium of the acceptance of Christianity in
Rus'. This collection of essays throws light on the enormous, truly
unique role that the Christian tradition has played throughout the
centuries in shaping the nations that spring from Kievan Rus'-the
Russians, Ukrainians, and Belorussians. Although these volumes
devote greater attention to Russian culture, the investigation of
the issue in the history of Christianity in Ukrainian and
Belorussian cultures occupies an important and integral part of the
project. Volume ISlavic Cultures in the Middle AgesEdited by Boris
Gasparov and Olga Raevsky-Hughes Volume IIRussian Culture in Modern
TimesEdited by Robert P. Hughes and Irina Paperno Volume IIIRussian
Literature in Modern TimesEdited by Boris Gasparov, Robert P.
Hughes, Irina Paperno, and Olga Raevsky-Hughes This title is part
of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University
of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the
brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on
a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality,
peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using
print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in
1993.
The dramatic political struggle of Boris Pasternak and the
continued success of his novel. Dr. Zhivago, have often taken
center stage in discussions of this writer. Olga Raevsky Hughes
chooses instead to focus on the aesthetics underlying Pasternak's
snuggles and successes to explore the ways in which his views of
art and the artist were applied in his writings. Professor Hughes
examines those aspects of Pasternak's views on art that he himself
considered crucial: the beginnings of poetry in his life, the
relation of his art to life, his relationship to his time, and his
responsibility to lite and to society. Pasternak's views on art are
analyzed as he himself saw them in his autobiographies, critical
essays, and letters; and also as they were reflected in his work.
Pasternak is allowed to speak for himself: accordingly, all of his
published works are used, including letters, little-known works,
and available variants of his early poems. Originally published in
1975. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
