Treasures into Tractors: The Selling of Russia's Cultural Heritage, 1918-1938.

¶ Unlike the widely publicized controversy surrounding Soviet and Nazi looting of art during World War II and its restitution, Soviet sales of masterpieces and other valuables during the interwar period have until now remained largely ignored outside a small community of scholars. The international contributors to this book explore the fate of Russian art collections and libraries following the Russian Revolution in 1917, the institutions and individuals responsible for their sale, and the prominent collectors, libraries, and museums that acquired them. These Europeans and Americans reveal the extent of the Soviet government's voluntary "realization" of Russia's cultural patrimony between Wars I and II and its consequences for the international art market and perceptions of Russian art.

ANNE SALMOND

The Trial Of The Cannibal Dog: Captain Cook In The South Seas

Penguin Books (NZ) 2004 Paperback, 544pp. "The PAPERBACK REPRINT of Anne Salmond's bestselling book on Captain Cook's voyages in the Pacific.The Pacific voyages of James Cook sailed across perilous tropical seas, survived hurricanes and volcanic eruptions, discovered unknown lands and peoples and made their Captain an icon of imperial history. Yet, as Anne Salmond shows, the story of these epic South Sea journeys is far more than one of conquest and control. She has devoted a lifetime to the study of relations between Europeans and Polynesians, and this book is the result. In Salmond's account, Cook's great voyages regain their dreamlike quality as they encounter the last major human communities untouched by wider worlds. Far from being little wooden islands of Englishness in a Polynesian sea, his ships and the men in them are as much changed by what happens as the islanders they meet. We see them alarmed and entranced by the islanders' open sexuality, shocked by human sacrifice and cannibalism, but also forging relationships with Pacific Island friends and lovers, acquiring tattoos and learning to speak Polynesian languages, with Cook himself granted the status of high chief in many areas before his violent downfall. ", (ISBN: 9780141010038). Very Good.
