Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Russian Literature The period of the greatest activity of the two brothers was during their residence in Moravia. The Moravian princes, seeing that the people were unable to apprehend even the elementary truths of Christianity, addressed them selves to the Byzantine Emperor Michael; who selected Cyril for the purpose. The success of the Slavonic mission in Moravia, aroused and alarmed the German Hierarchy which, dreading the loss of its influence on the Moravians impugned these first missioners before Pope Nicholas I. The Pope summoned the brothers to Rome for trial, but it was his successor Adrian II who heard them, and so far from letting them be tried, made Methodius a Bishop and sent him to Moravia where he lived for sixteen years more. Cyril, worn out with toil, died at Rome. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Russian Literature: With a Lexicon of Russian Authors That the kingdoms of Europe are daily becoming more exposed to the risk of being subjugated by the barbarism of Russia, is the constant theme of declamation among a numerous and influential party in this country. It will be evident, however, on the slightest reflection, that it is not the barbarism of Russia which is to be dreaded, but her civilisation. Not only year after year is some new province added to the formidable acquisitions of the imperial sceptre, but day after day the internal resources of the people are becoming more and more developed, and the Russian language is rendered richer in its attractions in the same proportion as it is more widely diffused in extent.

This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Russian Literature To the difficulties inseparably attached to all literary criticism must, in the present case, be added the circumstance that the writers here reviewed belong to a nation whose history and civilization differ in many essential points from the history and civilization of Western Europe. I dare not flatter myself that in all cases I have succeeded in under standing aright the form and stir of mind which have given to the Russian people a literature of their own. I can only trust that an honest desire to comprehend and appreciate the character and aims of a people among whom I have lived for many years, and a warm sympathy with the progress they have made and - despite recent ominous events - are still making, may have proved sufiicient safeguards against glaring errors, and that justice has been done in these pages to the more illustrious writers and thinkers of modern Russia.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of Russian Literature But in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, the existence of this growing barrier was not yet perceptible. The eleventh and twelfth centuries in Russia were an age of Sagas and Byliny, already clearly stamped with the democratic character and ideal that is at the root of all Russian literature, and which offer so sharp a contrast to Greek and Western ideals. In the Russian Sagas, the most popular hero is the peasant's son, who is despised and rejected, but at the critical moment displays superhuman strength and saves his country from the enemy; and in return for his services is allowed to drink his fill for three years in a tavern.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Masters of Russian Literature in the Nineteenth Century But these trivialities, dressed in graceful idioms, are simply charming. To touch them, to analyze them, is like touching a soap-bubble. Fortunately, M. Dupuy has also all the Gallic acuteness and cleverness bf illus tration and, in spite of occasional glittering, illusive triteness, there is a solid basis of value, which remains even when the scintillations are dulled, when the iri descence is obscured by the veil of translation. His skill in giving the gist of a book is thoroughly characteristic and that, it is to be hoped, shines through the English.

Book Synopsis A History of Russian Literature by : Andrew Kahn
Download or read book A History of Russian Literature written by Andrew Kahn and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 860 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia possesses one of the richest and most admired literatures of Europe, reaching back to the eleventh century. A History of Russian Literature provides a comprehensive account of Russian writing from its earliest origins in the monastic works of Kiev up to the present day, still rife with the creative experiments of post-Soviet literary life. The volume proceeds chronologically in five parts, extending from Kievan Rus' in the 11th century to the present day.The coverage strikes a balance between extensive overview and in-depth thematic focus. Parts are organized thematically in chapters, which a number of keywords that are important literary concepts that can serve as connecting motifs and 'case studies', in-depth discussions of writers, institutions, and texts that take the reader up close and. Visual material also underscores the interrelation of the word and image at a number of points, particularly significant in the medieval period and twentieth century. The History addresses major continuities and discontinuities in the history of Russian literature across all periods, and in particular bring out trans-historical features that contribute to the notion of a national literature. The volume's time-range has the merit of identifying from the early modern period a vital set of national stereotypes and popular folklore about boundaries, space, Holy Russia, and the charismatic king that offers culturally relevant material to later writers. This volume delivers a fresh view on a series of key questions about Russia's literary history, by providing new mappings of literary history and a narrative that pursues key concepts (rather more than individual authorial careers). This holistic narrative underscores the ways in which context and text are densely woven in Russian literature, and demonstrates that the most exciting way to understand the canon and the development of tradition is through a discussion of the interrelation of major and minor figures, historical events and literary politics, literary theory and literary innovation.

Book Synopsis A Literary History of Russia by : A. Brückner
Download or read book A Literary History of Russia written by A. Brückner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Literary History of Russia Western Europe has hitherto lacked any satisfactory account of Russian literature as a whole: there have not been wanting brilliant studies of single writers; much has been written upon Turgenev, Dostoevsky, and especially upon Tolstoy, and isolated chapters upon most of the other well-known authors, but the development which led up to these, the environment which produced them and the lesser writers whose work throws light upon theirs, has remained obscure. What should have enabled a country which every one had regarded as not less behindhand in literature than in the other adornments of civilisation, suddenly to produce a series of writers who anticipated a point of view to which the foremost literatures of Europe were gradually working their way (for Gogol was the first realist), has been hidden from all but the few who have made a serious study, not merely of Russian literature during the last sixty years, but of the whole psychological evolution which the Russian people went through under their political and social conditions. Of the few who had studied this in the country itself and had entered into the spiritual life of a people that differs in so many ways from the Western Europeans, none seems to have been capable of playing the interpreter. It is perhaps natural that, when found, the interpreter should prove to be a Pole, a hereditary member of the European world, yet as a Slav capable of entering into the minds of fellow-Slavs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Young Folks' History of Russia (Classic Reprint) written by Nathan Haskell Dole and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Young Folks' History of Russia It has been well said by a recent author that the aim of all the great reforms made in Russia since Peter the Great has been to undo what he did or tried to do. That struggle is still going on, and with Such throes that it sometimes seems as though the building itself must fall in ruins. The history of modern Russia is the history of a transition, and must needs be unfinished until the transition is complete. The death of an emperor or the execution of an assassin is not the end of an epoch. In a book for young people a long list of authorities may be spared; it is sufficient to state that the facts have been drawn from the best sources, - Russian, German, French, and English. In the first part Russian names have been done away with English equivalents take their places. A table follows for convenience. In all cases difficult words are avoided so far as possible, and it is hoped that this Young Folks' History of Russia is at least readable.
