False Dmitry in Russian Literature

• Gebundenes Buch

Writing the Time of Troubles traces recurring fictional representations of the man who briefly reigned as Tsar Dmitry, showing how eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Russian playwrights and novelists reshaped and appropriated his equivocal career as a means of drawing attention to and negotiating the social anxieties of their own times.
