Russia Before the "Radiant Future": Essays in Modern History, Culture, and Society

Berghahn Books, 2011. Hardcover. Near Fine Condition. 9781845457617 Firmly bound, clean pages, a small number of pencilled asterisks in the margins of a few pages.

Written over a number of years, these pioneering works have been revised and updated and are complemented by others being published for the first time. Thematically, they cover major subjects in Imperial Russian history and in historical writing, such as ideas and their role in historical change; the intelligentsia, the nobility, and peasant society; and historiography. The twelve essays raise cardinal questions about current scholarship on Russian history before the upheavals of 1917 and offer original interpretations that are of interest to the educated layman as well as the professional historian. 312 pages.

Ice Age art: arrival of the modern mind

British Museum Press, 2013. Hardcover. Fine Condition/Very Good. 9780714123332 Firm binding, clean unmarked pages; 1" tear to rear lower corner of jacket-repaired but still visible, also some surface handling marks and shallow abrasions. This unique book explores the extraordinary sculpture and drawings created during the last European Ice Age, between 40,000 and 10,000 years ago – the oldest known figurative art in the world. Over 100 objects are featured alongside stunning illustrations, including small but exquisite sculptures made from mammoth ivory, engraved drawings, and jewellery from the age of the great painted caves, in addition to celebrated masterpieces. Featured are the Swimming Reindeer (13,000 years old), the so-called Willendorf Venus (25,000 years old) and the Vogelherd horse (32,000 years old), examining them in a new light. This compelling narrative is also illustrated with a wealth of contextual images, from classical sculpture to twentieth-century painting and even contemporary advertising campaigns, which demonstrate surprising aesthetic parallels between these ancient works and familiar modern pieces. In this way, Ice Age Art will bring home the point that the minds that created these objects in all their diversity and inventiveness were modern minds like our own, capable of highly sophisticated thought and expression. 288 pages.
