Accessible to students, tourists and general readers alike, this book provides a broad overview of Russian history since the ninth century. Since then, new material has come to light on the history of the Soviet era, providing new conceptions of Russia's pre-revolutionary past. Paul Bushkovitch emphasizes the enormous changes in the understanding of Russian history resulting from the end of the Soviet Union in 1991.
Bushkovitch describes well-known cultural figures, such as Chekhov, Tolstoy and Mendeleev, in their institutional and historical contexts. The book traces not only the political history of Russia, but also developments in its literature, art and science. Though the 1917 revolution, the resulting Soviet system and the Cold War were a crucial part of Russian and world history, Bushkovitch presents earlier developments as more than just a prelude to Bolshevik power.
