A Companion to Russian History
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, dramatic changes have transformed the way historians have studied and interpreted Russia's past. This Companion provides an overview of Russian history, from the earliest appearance of the Slavs in history to the present day. It features 28 provocative essays written by both prominent and emerging international scholars covering the major debates in the subject.
The Companion is structured chronologically, yet reflects the weight of interest in Russia's recent history by giving its greatest coverage to the twentieth century. It offers a balanced review of both traditional and cutting-edge topics, demonstrating the range and dynamism of the field.
