Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the evolution of virtue in Russian literature, Russell Scott Valentino examines how traditional masculine heroism, tied to property, was challenged by a new commercial ethic influenced by consensual fantasy. This study highlights the tension between self-interest and social value in the context of modern Russia's shifting economic landscape. Valentino addresses a fundamental question faced by Russian authors since the early 19th century: the integration of a self-interested commercial man into the fabric of Russian society as a respected masculine figure.
