内容説明
This volume of selected essays illustrates cultural relations between Great Britain and Russia from the beginning of the 18th century to the middle of the 19th century. It covers a wide variety of topics, such as mutual perception and awareness, the creation of images and stereotypes, translations and fictional representations, travel accounts and newspaper reports. Some essays deal with particular areas of British awareness of Russian culture (eg folk song) or of individual writers (such as the fabulist Ivan Krylov); others recount individual British encounters with Russia (eg. George Borrow or the Governess Lucy Atkinson). Taken together, they provide a mosaic of often little-known but fascinating aspects of cultural interchange.
