Review:
"...the Cambridge history offers some important insights." Vasily Rudich, New Criterion
"...offers a solid introduction to its subject matter." Choice
"...an immensely useful book." The Times Higher Education Supplement
"Professor Moser has had no easy task, and the overall result is a testimony to his very considerable skills as an editor. He facilitates the transition from one period to the next by furnishing at the beginning of each chapter a brief thumbnail sketch of the new period. In themselves these sketches are models of judiciousness. Read in sequence, they provide a fine condensed history of the entire literature....this volume will clearly become an important tool for both teachers and students of the Russian literary tradition." J. Douglas Clayton, Canadian Slavonic Papers
