Edyta Bojanowska uses Ivan Goncharov's gripping travelogue--a bestseller in nineteenth-century Russia--as a unique eyewitness account of empire in action. Slow to be integrated into the standard narrative on European imperialism, Russia emerges here as an assertive empire eager to emulate European powers and determined to define Russia against them.-- Provided by publisher.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
From London to Cape Town, or how to run a successful empire -- Pineapples in Petersburg, cabbage soup on the Equator -- Prying open Japan, prospecting Korea -- Eastward ho! -- Russians confront human diversity -- The bestseller and its afterlife.
