Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book collection is not one single book but a collection of 98 Russian folk songs. Russian folk songs are historically significant literary gems, with this collection being one of the largest ever compiled and translated into English. The songs explore themes of love, marriage, war, and everyday peasant life, using allegory and proverb, in a mixture of religious and secular subjects. Each manuscript of the songs consists of narrations of fairytale-like events, with repeated refrains, an abundance of synonyms, superlatives, and similes based on natural imagery, and a simple verse structure with regular meter. The songs are an ideal entry point to Russian literature, history, and the human condition in a bygone era, encapsulating the broader themes of classic Russian literary history; love, loss, and life in the face of adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
