Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to discern the interdependence of political and cultural Russia and the Balkan states. Archival documents in Sarajevo and Vienna provide insight into decisions and directives influencing the shaping and fruition of some cultural activities as well as the curtailing or denial of others. In particular, the censorship criteria of dailies and periodicals testified to the vigilance of the authorities to control public discourse. The juxtaposition of everyday public discourse, literary renderings and political circumstances during the 1875-1878 uprising in Bosnia-Hercegovina, and the subsequent Austro-Hungarian occupation, shed new light on these historic events.
