Description
8vo, br. ed. uncorrected proffs, very good. 373pp. dyta Bojanowska uses Ivan Goncharov's gripping travelogue a bestseller in nineteenth-century Russia as a unique eyewitness account of empire in action. Slow to be integrated into the standard narrative on European imperialism, Russia emerges here as an assertive empire eager to emulate European powers and determined to define Russia against them.
