Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of thirteen major essays on eighteenth-century Russia by one of the most distinguished Western historians.

This is a substantial contribution not just to the history of Russia, but to early modern Europe generally.
Book Synopsis The French Language in Russia by : Derek Offord
Download or read book The French Language in Russia written by Derek Offord and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: -- With support from the Arts and Humanities Research Council of the UK and the Deutsches Historisches Institut Moskau --The French Language in Russia provides the fullest examination and discussion to date of the adoption of the French language by the elites of imperial Russia during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is interdisciplinary, approaching its subject from the angles of various kinds of history and historical sociolinguistics. Beyond its bearing on some of the grand narratives of Russian thought and literature, this book may afford more general insight into the social, political, cultural, and literary implications and effects of bilingualism in a speech community over a long period. It should also enlarge understanding of francophonie as a pan-European phenomenon. On the broadest plane, it has significance in an age of unprecedented global connectivity, for it invites us to look beyond the experience of a single nation and the social groups and individuals within it in order to discover how languages and the cultures and narratives associated with them have been shared across national boundaries.

Book Synopsis A Linguistic History of Russia to the End of the Eighteenth Century by : A. P. Vlasto
Download or read book A Linguistic History of Russia to the End of the Eighteenth Century written by A. P. Vlasto and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1986 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first complete and balanced historical grammar of Russian to appear in many years. Clear and readable, with none of the technicalities of theoretical linguistics, it is destined to become the standard introduction in English to Slavonic philology. Focusing on language as it was actually used, the book is accessible to those students of Russian whose main interest is in literature rather than philology. Vlasto traces the merging of Russian with Old Church Slavonic to the evolution of classical modern Russian--the standard literary language--at the end of the 18th century.

Book Synopsis Translation and the Westernization of Eighteenth-Century Russia by : Sergey Tyulenev
Download or read book Translation and the Westernization of Eighteenth-Century Russia written by Sergey Tyulenev and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2012-09-03 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book considers the role of translation in the reformation of Russia along Western European lines in the eighteenth century. Translation is presented as a key social-systemic factor in the dynamics of the relationship between the system and its environment — between Russia and Western Europe. The author draws on contemporary historiography and social theory, primarily Niklas Luhmann’s social systems theory, but also concepts of other sociologists and historians, such as Gumilev, Bourdieu, Habermas, Jameson, amongst others. This allows the author to conduct a comprehensive analysis of social involvements of translation. Importantly, this case study aspires to pave the way for research of the social role of translation of universal validity.

Download or read book The First Epoch written by Luba Golburt and published by University of Wisconsin Pres. This book was released on 2014-07-30 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the shadow of Pushkin's Golden Age, Russia's eighteenth-century culture was relegated to an obscurity hardly befitting its actually radical legacy. Why did nineteenth-century Russians put the eighteenth century so quickly behind them? How does a meaningful present become a seemingly meaningless past? Interpreting texts by Lomonosov, Derzhavin, Pushkin, Viazemsky, Turgenev, Tolstoy, and others, Luba Golburt finds surprising answers.
Book Synopsis Patrons of Enlightenment by : Colum Leckey
Download or read book Patrons of Enlightenment written by Colum Leckey and published by University of Delaware. This book was released on 2011-08-16 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patrons of Enlightenment is the first English language study of the St. Petersburg Free Economic Study, one of the most prestigious and influential public associations in Imperial Russian history. Established in 1765 under the personal protection of Catherine the Great, its mission was to enlighten the villages and country estates of the Russian Empire by spreading the gospel of scientific agriculture to noble landowners and the peasants working their land. Emulating the patriotic associations of Western and Central Europe, it also sought to put the finishing touches on the cultural westernization of Russia initiated by the reforming tsar Peter the Great. Within the walls of its meeting house in St. Petersburg, it offered a neutral space where people of different rank, status, and lineage assembled to debate the great issues of the day, above all else the role of a privileged and enlightened nobility in a society anchored in serfdom. For its network of readers and correspondents in the provinces, it provided an opportunity to earn distinction on Russia's public stage through its voluminous publications and its flagship journal, the Transactions of the Free Economic Society. The Society provided the template for public activity and initiative in Imperial Russia, as hundreds of other organizations in the nineteenth century would emulate its example.
