Aprašymas
John Fennell's history of thirteenth-century russia is the only detailed study in English of the period, and is based on close investigation of the primary sources, many of which have not been analysed in detail before. His account concentrates on the turbulent politics of the northern area (from Novgorod to the eastern boundary of Suzdalia) which was ultimately to become the tsardom of Muscovy, but he also gives detailed attention to the vast southern empire of Kiev until its political eclipse under the Tatar invasions of 1237-1240. It is a tortured picture that he conjures up - an age of crisis and chaos, of complex and crippling in-fighting between innumerable quasi-autonomous districts, and of the incessant struggle for power between the huge disorganised and unwieldy princely family, the descendants of Ryurik, whose strife left the country divided and impotent before the Tatar invaders. Even Aleksandr Nevskiy himself, the great hero hailed so often as Russia's bulwark against 'Western Aggression', passively accepted the authority of the Tatar Khanate of Saray, with disastrous consequences as Professor Fennell's re-evaluation of his career shows.
In other hands this grim story of Russia at its lowest ebb might have seemed both impenetrable and rebarbative, but Professor Fennell guides his readers with clarity through even the knottiest tangles. The result is a major addition to medieval historiography: an essential acquisition for students of Russia itself, and a book which decisively fills vast blank on the map of the European Middle Ages for medievalists generally.
