Description

Excerpt from A History of Russian Literature The Slavs, like the Latins, the Celts, and the Germans, belong to the Aryan or indo-european race. Oppressed for many years by the Western peoples, which drew the word slave from the appellation Slav, scorned by their German neighbours, who would not regard their race in any other light but that of ethnological matter (et/mo logz'seher Stofi), they probably owed their inferiority solely to their geographical position. Modern civilisation, like that of the ancients, built itself up almost independently of the Slavs. Yet they have raised their protest against a too absolute decree of exclusion, and they have right on their Side. The Slav nation did not, indeed, hollow out the channels of the double movement, intellectual or religious, Renaissance and Reform, from which the modern era issued, but it opened them in two directions. Copernicus and John Huss were both Slavs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
