Historic Origin and Social Development of Family Life in Russia

"Historic Origin and Social Development of Family Life in Russia" provides an in-depth examination of the evolution of the domestic unit within the Russian context. From the early communal structures of Slavic tribes to the shifts brought about by the influence of the Church and various state regimes, Elaine Elnett, Ph.D., explores how external pressures and internal cultural shifts shaped the Russian family.The work analyzes the roles of husbands, wives, and children, as well as the legal and religious frameworks that governed marriage and inheritance over several centuries. By tracing the trajectory of these social dynamics, the book offers valuable insights into the broader history of the Russian people and their unique social identity. This scholarly study remains a significant resource for those interested in historical sociology, the development of gender roles, and the cultural foundations of pre-revolutionary Russia. It delves into the intricate relationship between the individual family unit and the larger community, illustrating how social norms were both preserved and transformed through periods of intense historical change.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
