Medieval Russian Culture, Volume IIUniversity of California Press Michael Flier and Daniel Rowland ISBN: 0520086384 price: $48.00 hardcover
A stimulating and provocative collection, these essays
challenge received notions about the culture and history of
medieval Russia and offer fresh approaches to problems of textual
interpretation, the theory of the medieval text, and the analysis
of alternative, nonverbal texts. The contributors, international
specialists from many disciplines, investigate issues ranging
over history, cultural anthropology, art history, and ritual.
They have produced a worthy companion to the first volume of
Medieval Russian Culture, published in 1984.
