"For anyone concerned with or interested in the topic of cultural
development in Russia, particularly during the monarchy, this book
would be invaluable, providing as it does in-depth information on
the developments and transformations in Russian history, culture,
politics, customs and traditions. “Tsar and God” and Other Essays
in Russian Cultural Semiotics is likely to become a primary
reference source for future research in the study of the historical
transformation of the Russian state and Russian society."
