Book Synopsis Classics in Russia 1700-1855 by : Marinus Antony Wes
Book excerpt: What role did classical Graeco-Roman culture play in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Russian society, on the institutional level as well as in the lives of individual Russian intellectuals? Through a series of case-studies of classics-in-action the book illustrates the tension between aims and results, expectations and achievements.
