This second edition of this beloved Russian textbook deepens our understanding of the dramatic history of the Russophone world
Since 2007, Advanced Russian Through History has been a classic textbook helping students develop high levels of proficiency. However, recent world events have compelled a reconsideration of the history of the Russian imperial project.
This second edition of Advanced Russian Through History decenters the history of Russia from the history of ethnic Russians. Scholars from across the Russophone world contributed essays and minilectures, providing new perspectives on the history of peoples in the Russophone world, enriching students' understanding of the diversity of speakers of the Russian language and the cultures and histories of peoples in the Russophone world, from Kyivan Rus' to current times, including the Muscovite State, the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union, the Russian Federation, and Russia's war against Ukraine.
This textbook meets the needs of contemporary Russian language students who have at least intermediate reading proficiency: it consists of fifty chapters, each with its own essay and at least one minilecture, as well as learning tasks focused on comprehension, interpretation, and linguistic analysis. The book also features a wealth of supplementary materials available through its website, including scholarly articles and video recordings of lectures, news articles, and broadcasts; films; poems; songs; anecdotes; podcasts; and interviews.
