Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1877 edition. Excerpt: ... LECTURE II. ON THE SCANDINAVIAN ORIGIN OF THE ANCIENT RUSS. In the preceding lecture I sought to take a survey of the ethnography of ancient Russia; I gave you Nestor's relation of the foundation of the Russian state, and I added a description of its founders, the Russ, derived from Greek and Oriental sources. I am now going to lay before you evidence from other sources to corroborate Nestor's account of the Scandinavian origin of the Russ. I freely confess that most of this evidence is by no means new; but considering the opposition which has been raised against this view, it cannot be too often repeated, and I hope also to be able to present to you fresher and more correct views as to some of the details of the subject than have hitherto been entertained. As I have mentioned before, the Greek form of the name Russ is Rhds, 'P&jy (or Rusioi, 'Povo-wi), and from the close of the ninth century Byzantine literature abounds in references to the Rhos. There is no doubt that the Greeks were thoroughly acquainted with this people, and it is evident that they well knew how to distinguish them from other neighbouring nations and particularly from the Slavs. But if we ask for the real nationality of the people to whom the Greeks applied the name Rhds, Byzantine literature itself gives us no direct and positive answer. A designation of them which sometimes occurs, is Scyths (skv&cll) or Tauroscyths (TavpoTKv8al); but that is a learned name, not a popular one, referring only to their dwelling in the territory of the ancient Scyths, north of the Black Sea, without reference to their nationality. A few of the Byzantine authors give us a little more definite suggestion on this subject, inasmuch as, in mentioning the expedition of 941, they design the...

This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relations Between Ancient Russia and Scandinavia and the Origin of the Russian State The Lectures which are here presented to the public were delivered at Oxford in May, 1876, by invitation of the Curators of the Taylor Institution as administrators of the Ilchcstcr Bequest for the encouragement of the study of the Slavonic Language, Literature, and History. Within the boundaries set by the terms of the endowment, it was natural to me to choose a subject which, at the same time as being Slavonic, had some reference to Scandinavia, and I could not long be in doubt as to the choice. I give the Lectures here, in the main, so as I had at first written them, with such slight modifications and additions as, in revising my manuscript, I thought necessary. According to this plan I have not hesitated to insert several details of a philological kind which I was obliged to leave out or abridge when delivering the Lectures, but which are in fact so important to the purpose I had set myself that it seemed to me they could not well be omitted here; such will be found, for instance, in the inquiry into the names of the Dnieper rapids, the Old Russian proper names, the history of the name Varangian, &c.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relations Between Ancient Russia and Scandinavia and the Origin of the Russian State I beg to express my best thanks first and foremost to the Curators of the Taylor Institution, not only for their honourable invitation to lecture at Oxford, butj also for their liberality in undertaking the printing of the Lectures at the cost of the endowment; next, to all those who have met me with kindness, as well with respect to the present work, as during my stay in England.

Book Russia s Identity in International Relations

Download or read book Russia s Identity in International Relations written by Ray Taras and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together leading scholars from Russia and outside experts on Russia, this book looks at the difference between the image Russia has of itself and the way it is viewed in the West. It discusses the historical, cultural and political foundations that these images are built upon, and goes on to analyse how contested these images are, and their impact on Russian identity. The book questions whether differing images explain fractiousness in Western-Russian relations in the new century, or whether distinct 'imaginary solitudes' offer a better platform from which to negotiate differences. Providing an innovative comparative study of contemporary images of the country and their impact, the book is a significant contribution to studies of globalisation and international relations.
