Examining the role of arts and artists in society's value system, Richard Stites explores this shift in a groundbreaking history of visual and performing arts in the last decades of serfdom. Provincial town and manor house engaged the culture of Moscow and St. Petersburg while thousands of serfs and ex-serfs created or performed. Mikhail Glinka raised Russian music to new levels and Anton Rubinstein struggled to found a conservatory. Long before the itinerants, painters explored town and country in genre scenes of everyday life. Serf actors on loan from their masters brought naturalistic acting from provincial theaters to the imperial stages. Stites's richly detailed book offers new perspectives on the origins of Russia's nineteenth-century artistic prowess. 606 $aSerfdom$zRussia 606 $aArts and society$zRussia 607 $aRussia$xSocial life and customs$y19th century 615 0$aSerfdom 615 0$aArts and society 676 $a700.1030947 700 $aStites$b Richard$f1931-2010.$0479767 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777785703321 996 $aSerfdom, society, and the arts in imperial Russia$93785774 997 $aUNINA
