In a set of engaging essays, the contributors present richly human stories of individual and group experiences, as well as of key events in Russian history. We see the effects of reforms; the consequences of an economy and society built on serfdom; as well as the development of a civil society, the ""woman question,"" urbanization, secularization, and modernity. As this book vividly shows, individuals, groups, and events raised out of obscurity remind us of the messiHuman tradition around the world.National characteristics, RussianHistoryRussiaSocial conditionsRussiaHistory1613-1917National characteristics, RussianHistory.947Worobec Christine1706722MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910810993903321The human tradition in imperial Russia4094385UNINA
