Book excerpt: Excerpt from Revelations of Russia, Vol. 2 of 2: Or the Emperor Nicholas and His Empire, in 1844 Towards autumn, the steppe is constantly set fire to sometimes through carelessness, sometimes through wilfulness, at others for the sake of the young cr0p of grass which shoots up through the ashes, when the mists and dewy nights of autumn give a fresh and ephemeral life to the productions of the earth. The fires sometimes extend for many hundred versts, and give rise to frequent accidents. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Revelations of Russia, Vol. 2 of 2: Or the Emperor Nicholas and His Empire, in 1844 After the regions of wood and plain and morass, come those of the steppes, which, with few interruptions, cover the whole of the south of the Russian empire, European as well as Asiatic. The vast and monotonous plains which are thus denominated, stretch from the foot of the Carpathian mountains, across the whole of Asia, with slight variation in their character, except where some wide river or its tributary its waters into the Euxine, the Caspian, or the sea of Ural. These steppes are neither desert nor prairie; they partake of the nature of both. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Recipes for Russia written by Alison K. Smith and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2008-02-26 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alison K. Smith examines changing attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs about the production and consumption of food in Russia from the late eighteenth century through the mid-nineteenth century. She focuses on the way that competing ideas based either in "traditional" Russian practice or in new practices from the "rational" West became the basis for Russians' understanding of themselves and their society. The Russians who participated in the process of self-definition were variously private authors and reformers or public servants of the Russian imperial state. Some had great success in creating a sense of themselves as ultimate authorities on a given topic. For example, a series of cookbook authors developed a system of writing Russian cookbooks in ways that borrowed from, but were still quite different from, foreign sources. Others found the process of mediating these ideas more difficult; agricultural reformers, in particular, sometimes found traditional practices, now deemed irrational, hard to eliminate. Recipes for Russia looks at the process of nation-building within the framework of the modern world—that is, it looks at the way individuals sought to define their nationality not only against outside influences but also by incorporating those outside influences into some coherent, yet national, whole. While Smith looks at food as part of Russian culture, she also connects it with the social, legal, and economic background that formed the culture, while examining the pre-reform period in significant detail. As a result, Recipes for Russia illuminates the great changes of this period, both in the food habits of Russians and in their views of themselves and of their nation.
