Decentralization and Self-Government in Russia, 1830-1870

Decentralization and Self-Government in Russia, 1830-1870

Frederick S. Starr

sidottu
The turbulent period of renewal and innovation that followed Russia's crushing defeat in the Crimea has been interpreted, historically, in terms of the emancipation of the serfs and the evolution of the gentry class. But, contends Frederick Starr, such an approach underestimates the breadth and intensity of the impulse for local reforms per se. After tracing the ideological sources of the reform, Mr. Starr examines in detail the legislative process by which administrative decentralization and public self-government were instituted. Originally published in 1972. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Notes of a Pianist

Notes of a Pianist

Louis Moreau Gottschalk; Frederick S. Starr

Princeton University Press
2006
pokkari
Notes of a Pianist chronicles the life of one of the most remarkable musical minds of the American experience, the great nineteenth-century New Orleans-born composer and pianist Louis Moreau Gottschalk (1829-1869). An important cultural and historical work, the book recounts Gottschalk's experiences as he traveled and performed throughout the last decade of his life. Born to an English-Jewish father and a Haitian mother, Gottschalk is remembered as one of the great New Orleans musicians and composers, his music a combination of the classical tradition in which he was trained, and the New Orleans tradition into which he was born. His art form took him far outside the boundaries of Louisiana, however. While still a child, he studied piano in Paris and gave a concert at the Salle Pleyel, after which Frederic Chopin is said to have remarked: "Give me your hand, my child; I predict that you will become the king of pianists." Gottschalk returned to the United States in 1853, and later lived in Cuba, Puerto Rico, Panama, and South America, during which time he kept-sometimes sporadically, sometimes daily--the notebooks that formed the basis of Notes of a Pianist. Published for the first time in 1881, the book continues to resonate with American cultural and musical life. Notes of a Pianist demonstrates Gottschalk's importance not only as a reporter of the musical life and tastes of Americans during the Civil War, but also as a forefather of Louisiana's rich musical culture.

The Tidepool and the Stars

The Tidepool and the Stars

Frederick Feied

Xlibris Corporation
2001
pokkari
Steinbeck achieved international renown, but he remains one of the most misunderstood of modern writers, called a Communist in the 'thirties, a fascist in the 'forties, and a social Darwinist in the 'sixties. The Tidepool and the Stars offers an alternative to such extremes of social and literary criticism. Author Biography: Frederick Feied earned his Ph.D. at Columbia University, taught at the University of California at Berkeley and Michigan State University among other institutions, has been a book reviewer for The San Francisco Chronicle and drama critic for The San Francisco Bay Guardian, and now lives and sails in the Greek islands.
