Book Synopsis Russia's 'Age of Silver' (Routledge Revivals) by : Ian Blanchard
Download or read book Russia's 'Age of Silver' (Routledge Revivals) written by Ian Blanchard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1989, Russia’s ‘Age of Silver’ represents a major contribution to the history of the international economy during the eighteenth century, challenging old prejudices and establishing the importance of Russian precious-metal production. Ian Blanchard examines the nature of the Central and South America specie crisis of 1670 to 1760, and the response of European precious-metal producers. He highlights the rise of the Russian copper industry to a position of world supremacy, and the Siberian gold and silver mines to ‘old world’ supremacy. The study explains why Russia experienced little inflation and why no metal was exported: the economy acted as a sponge, absorbing the flood of coins as monetary expansion was paralleled by rapid economic growth. These developments doubled average per capita incomes over the course of the century, so that between 1788 and 1807 the average Russian enjoyed an income equivalent to that of their British counterpart. Providing a comprehensive analysis, this reissue will be of particular value to students and researchers with an interest in Russian economic history.

Book Synopsis The Fallacy of the Silver Age in Twentieth-Century Russian Literature by :
Download or read book The Fallacy of the Silver Age in Twentieth-Century Russian Literature written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, Ronen critically examines the term "Silver Age", which over the years has gained such wide currency among historians and connoisseurs of 20th century Russian culture. The author traces the origin and the controversial development of what he condemns as an influential misnomer. Ronen sets out to debunk the myth that attributes invention of the term to Nikolai Berdiaev, and in turn traces this widely used catchword in the critical idiom from an abscure, avante-garde manifesto to the present day. He lays to rest the use of the term which he sees as the most misleading constituent of Russia's contemporary cultural self-awareness and self-assessment.

Book Synopsis Routledge Revivals: The Long Road to Freedom (1989) by : Walter Laqueur
Download or read book Routledge Revivals: The Long Road to Freedom (1989) written by Walter Laqueur and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Long Road to Freedom is a comprehensive and thorough assessment published so far of glasnost, perhaps the most important term to have entered the international political dictionary in recent years. It explains the origins of glasnost against the background of Russian and Soviet history and shows in fascinating detail how, as the result of the glasnost revelations, our knowledge of the Soviet Union has had to be reconsidered. The book examines the impact of glasnost on Soviet cultural life, the economy, and foreign policy. It discusses the polarization of public opinion, the open debates inside the Soviet Union on burning social problems, and the emergence of a new influential "Russian party." The book also considers likely future trends and developments in a spirit of critical sympathy and in full awareness of the limits of glasnost, the enormous difficulties and possible setbacks likely to face the Soviet reform movement the years to come.

Book excerpt: The twenty-two essays in Cultural Mythologies of Russian Modernism, six of which appear in Russian, display the enormous advances that have taken place among Slavists in the study of the fascinating, but tragically circumscribed period in Russian literature that extends from the turn of the century to the Stalinist holocaust. This collection offers a definitive statement of how features of the Pushkin era were transformed during the Modernist age into a cultural mythology that encompassed personal and literary behavior, and such far-reaching issues as national identity and cultural destiny.
