520 8  The French Language in Russia' provides the fullest 
       examination and discussion to date of the adoption of the 
       French language by the elites of imperial Russia during 
       the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is 
       interdisciplinary, approaching its subject from the angles
       of various kinds of history and historical 
       sociolinguistics. Beyond its bearing on some of the grand 
       narratives of Russian thought and literature, this book 
       may afford more general insight into the social, political,
       cultural, and literary implications and effects of 
       bilingualism in a speech community over a long period. It 
       should also enlarge understanding of francophonie as a pan
       -European phenomenon. On the broadest plane, it has 
       significance in an age of unprecedented global 
       connectivity, for it invites us to look beyond the 
       experience of a single nation and the social groups and 
       individuals within it in order to discover how languages 
       and the cultures and narratives associated with them have 
       been shared across national boundaries.
