Book Synopsis Russian Peasant Bride Theft by : John Bushnell
Download or read book Russian Peasant Bride Theft written by John Bushnell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the history of Russian peasant bride theft - abduction, capture - from the adoption of Christianity in Kievan Rus in the late tenth century to the very early twentieth century. It argues that bride theft in eighteenth and nineteenth century Russia was practised in large part by, but not exclusively by, Old Believers, the schismatics who rejected the Church reforms of the mid-seventeenth century and shunned contact with the Orthodox Church; and that the point of bride theft, where the bride was often a willing party, often married secretly at night by an Orthodox priest acting illegally, was to absolve the bride and her parents of the responsibility for engaging in a formal Orthodox ritual which Old Believers regarded as sinful. The book also considers how bride theft originated much earlier in Russia and was a continuing tradition in some places, and how all this fitted into the Russian peasant economy. Throughout the book provides rich details of particular bride theft cases, of Russian peasant life, and of Russian folklore, in particular bridal laments.

Book excerpt: In 1670, Lady Elizabeth and other women were kidnapped from the streets of London and shipped to Virginia Colony. The women who survived the voyage were sold to colonists seeking wives or unpaid household workers. Each one was given a piece of paper saying they were married to the man who bought them, but no ceremony was performed. Lady Elizabeth certainly never agreed to any marriage as she was engaged to a Lord back home. Unable to escape, she is auctioned to widower, Glen Maclean, who promises to send her home to England in the spring if she'll stay on his farm for the winter to cook and care for his young daughter. The fact that Liz's mother died young and Liz spent her childhood years playing in the kitchen where she learned to cook means she can do what he asks. She wants only to return home to England, but she has no option but to accept Glen's offer and pray he keeps his word to send her home in the spring. Arriving at the farm, she is shocked to see the farmhouse has only two rooms…a kitchen and one bedroom. Given no choice, she must live in the sparse conditions so unlike living in her rich father's manor. She can only hope Glen will return her to England in the spring, or that her father will send someone to rescue her.

Adventure and romance together in high-speed pursuit of Happily Ever Afters throughout the universe. If you’ve been looking for love in all the wrong galaxies, find your alien mate with the Intergalactic Dating Agency! ALPHA STAR She just wanted a quiet place to hide from the world. Instead, she found adventure with a sexy alien seeking his mate and a once-in-a-lifetime chance for a cosmic love… Recovering from a traumatic concussion, Zoe Nazario fears she’ll never trust her own senses again. So when she stumbles over a shiny chrome cube, she laughs off its chirpy announcement that she’s the lucky bride of an alien prince. Aliens? Love? Yeah, no. Better to be dazed and confused—and alone—than desperately delusional. Sinclarion “Sin” Fifth-Moon Jax feels most at home roaming the infinite stars with his cybernetic enhancements and princely privilege to protect his misfit spaceship crew. But his imperial great-grandmother, despairing of his free-flying ways, demands he settle down to claim his solar system inheritance—and the Big Sky Intergalactic Dating Agency has already identified his perfect match in Sunset Falls, Montana, Earth! Grudgingly resigned to seizing the woman of his destiny, Sin instead gets an innocent Earther girl—who rejects him utterly. But when he realizes an interstellar menace is stalking his reluctant bride, he can’t just leave her behind…even if his five mating rings threaten to lock with desire when she’s near. The small-town Earther girl and the arrogant alien prince must join forces to survive a vast and treacherous universe, but what happens when they find that Sin’s inheritance might be a lie—and so is his perfect match with Zoe? RED SHIFT Unmated drakling shifters are one of the hottest threats in the universe, as everyone knows…everyone except this one drakling with amnesia and the innocent Earther girl trapped with him! Banished from his homeworld for refusing a mate that would tame his fiery beast, Honey the drakling followed his wandering prince into battle and then—more terrifying yet—into courtship. But then espresso-induced amnesia leaves him marooned in the backwater wilds of Big Sky Country, Montana, Earth, lost and alone but for a female with hair as dark as the night skies and hidden sparks in her eyes. Tisha Beauchamp just wanted a weekend in her granny’s remote cabin with her girlfriends to figure out her life plan. No one said a thing about an early snowstorm or invading aliens! And now she’s stuck in the mountains by herself—until her one-woman pity party gets crashed by a wild, red-haired man with no memories, strange dragon-ish tattoos, and a scorching touch… Though he has forgotten his name, his beast, and the freedom of space, the feverish urge to claim Tisha grows stronger with every night under the pale light of Earth’s solitary moon. But if he finds his way back to his ship and himself, how can he burn forever with his bold, bright Earther girl? DARK MATTER While it is a verifiable reality that the universe is vast and strange, no one in all those lightyears could ever love an emotionless, soul-sucking space vampire. Unless there are deeper truths out there somewhere… The secretive, ancient species of the vrykoly were designed to pilot the deathly cold distances of space, and Ivan has never known anything else; even his dreams have always been black and empty. Though he guides the Sinner’s Prayer to a neglected little planet to find brides from the Intergalactic Dating Agency, Ivan dispassionately considers bonding and mating to be irrational pursuits. But when his captain and first officer find incandescent love with the extraordinary females of Earth, this vrykoly is forced to wonder if he was—dare he say it?—wrong. After the tragic death of her first love, Montana river guide Delaney Nazario thought she’d be alone forevermore. So she quietly signed up with the Big Sky matchmaking outpost in Sunset Falls, hoping an alien will whisk her away. Instead it was her two roommates who found their mates—also staving off an attack by interstellar mercenaries trying to kidnap Earth women. Now Del is being guarded by a silent, hulking, scary vrykoly—who might be the only being in the universe she could never, ever date. But while there are deeper truths in the universe, there is also secret menace. And Big Sky’s only hope is a space vampire who’s never felt anything and an Earther girl who feels too much. AFTER BURN When Vaughn Quaye’s older sister goes missing in Big Sky Country, she’s willing to risk everything to hunt down the only man who seems to know anything about the mysterious mail order bride agency that closed under suspicious circumstances. Except Vaughn is risking more than her life–she’s discovering a universe of danger and desire she never knew existed. Dejo Jinn, sole proprietor of Jinn Data Recovery, just wants to steal–no, sorry, not steal, recover–the data left behind at the abandoned Intergalactic Dating Agency when it was forced to close after mistakenly losing some brides. He has no interest in revealing his extraterrestrialness to a clueless if distractingly curvy Earther, but after they are attacked and she sees his green blood, his secret is outed. Now reluctant partners, he’ll have the chance to steal–sorry, recover–the valuable data and she’ll get her sister back. Assuming they don’t end up dead. Or worse yet, end up dating. __________ For readers who love: alien mail order bride science fiction romance intergalactic dating agency fated mates prince royalty mercenary starship captain dragon shifter shapeshifter ginger cinnamon roll space vampire alpha male warrior strong woman heroine action adventure fast read fun steamy happily ever after HEA first love and books by Ruby Dixon, Honey Phillips, Tana Stone, Anna Hackett, Celia Kyle, Zoey Draven, Suzanne Wright, Celeste King, and Ava Ross.
