In this highly original and controversial book, David Schimmelpenninck van der Oye examines Russian thinking about the Orient before the Revolution of 1917. Exploring the writings, poetry, and art of representative individuals including Catherine the Great, Alexander Pushkin, Alexander Borodin, and leading orientologists, Schimmelpenninck argues that the Russian Empire's bi-continental geography, its ambivalent relationship with the rest of Europe, and the complicated nature of its encounter with Asia have all resulted in a variegated and often surprisingly sympathetic understanding of the East among its people. 606 $aOrientalism$zRussia$xHistory 606 $aPublic opinion$zRussia$xHistory 607 $aAsia$xStudy and teaching$zRussia 607 $aRussia$xIntellectual life$y18th century 607 $aRussia$xIntellectual life$y1801-1917 607 $aAsia$xForeign public opinion, Russian 607 $aRussia$xRelations$zAsia 607 $aAsia$xRelations$zRussia 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aOrientalism$xHistory. 615 0$aPublic opinion$xHistory. 676 $a303.48/247050903 700 $aSchimmelpenninck van der Oye$b David$0515352 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453137003321 996 $aRussian orientalism$9855495 997 $aUNINA
