Christian Rus in the Making, 2 Teile

The study of the Rus and its religious shaping has been an on-going discussion from the time of the emergence of this field of study in the 19th century. These volumes bring to light, and to a wider readership, cutting edge research on the religious culture and politics of the Rus and at its periphery, as well as interdisciplinary approaches to the early production of Slavonic texts during and immediately after Christianisation. One of the two volumes is dedicated to the textual production and sources of the period. By highlighting work by scholars from and working in Eastern Europe, this publication is an invitation to a global academic dialogue by making new research on Rus culture and letters available in English.
