Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of Stitesiana includes twenty-nine essays on Russian culture, which the author desired to be collected and published in a single volume. This collection represents the bulk of twenty years of scholarship, besides the well-known monographs, which includes book chapters in collective volumes and scholarly journals, and diverse pieces in popular magazines. Some of these essays appeared before the monographs did, and illustrate how Stites worked with his material, presented it, and allowed it to be utilized.
