Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Russia's history reads like a series of dramatic reinventions, from medieval principalities to a sprawling empire, from tsarist rule to Soviet power, and from Cold War superpower to a modern state still shaped by its past. Each era left deep marks on the country's politics, culture, and identity, and understanding those layers is key to making sense of Russia today.This book traces Russia's story from the early Slavic tribes and the rise of Kievan Rus through the Mongol invasion, the reign of the tsars, the upheaval of 1917, the Soviet decades, and the turbulent post Soviet years. The major turning points are covered honestly, without glorifying or oversimplifying any period. The founding of Kievan Rus and the long shadow of the Mongol occupation. The rise of the Romanov dynasty and the expansion of the Russian Empire. The revolutions of 1917 and the creation of the Soviet Union. Life under Stalin, the Cold War, and the eventual collapse of the USSR. Post Soviet Russia and the forces shaping the country in the twenty first century.A clear and grounded starting point for students, history readers, or anyone trying to understand the headlines coming out of Russia today.…

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Russia's Epic Saga: From Ancient Tribes to Revolutionary Dawn"The History of Russia" invites readers to journey through a vast land where steppe nomads forged empires, tsars wielded absolute power, and revolutionaries reshaped the world, evoking the fierce resilience of a people enduring invasions, reforms, and upheavals. From Kievan Rus' Christianization to 1917's seismic shifts, this book captures the emotional intensity of a nation's quest for identity amid Orthodox faith, autocratic rule, and cultural brilliance, highlighting the high stakes of unity built across diverse peoples and unforgiving landscapes.It opens with early tribes and Varangian influences, where fortified towns and trade routes laid foundations for Rus'. Kiev rises as a central power under princes like Vladimir, embracing Christianity and Byzantine ties.Mongol invasions shatter unity, shifting power to emerging centers like Moscow. Princes gather lands through Orthodox alliances, culminating in Ivan the Terrible's tsardom and Oprichnina terror.Time of Troubles brings famine and invasions, resolved by Romanov accession stabilizing the realm. Peter the Great westernizes with reforms, building St. Petersburg and expanding through Northern War.Catherine the Great's Enlightenment ideals drive territorial growth and arts patronage. Napoleonic invasion tests endurance at Borodino, with Moscow's burning marking patriotic triumph.Alexander II emancipates serfs amid reforms, as industrialization under Witte accelerates. Late 19th-century tensions fuel Marxist movements and Russification.Golden Age literature with Pushkin and Tolstoy reflects identity debates between Slavophiles and Westernizers. World War I strains the empire, leading to 1917 revolutions toppling Romanovs.Bolsheviks promise peace and land, navigating civil war and new structures. Reflections tie autocracy, faith, and multi-ethnic empire to enduring legacies.Comparable to Robert Service's "A History of Modern Russia," which chronicles eras with insightful depth, this volume aligns with 2025 trends in Eurasian histories emphasizing resilience and cultural crossroads. Its broad marketability appeals to students, travelers, and global affairs readers, promising steady sales for bookstores in Russian studies sections. By highlighting emotional stakes like devotion amid tyranny and renewal through revolution, it connects readers to Russia's profound spirit, inspiring reflection on how ancient roots influence today's world. This history traces Russia from Slavic tribes and Kievan Rus' through Mongol yoke, Moscow rise, Romanov reforms, Peter and Catherine expansions, to 19th-century industrialization and 1917 revolutions.
