Language attitudes 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. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 18th century|2fast 648 7 19th century|2fast 648 7 1700-1899|2fast 650 0 French language|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85051829|zRussia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n80001203-781|xHistory|y18th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006124 650 0 French language|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85051829|zRussia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n80001203-781|xHistory|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006167 650 0 Bilingualism|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85014030|zRussia.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n80001203-781 650 7 French language.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 934333 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Bilingualism.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/831739 651 7 Russia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1207312 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Rjéoutski, Vladislav,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2011093645|eauthor. 700 1 Argent, Gesine,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2015011859|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aOfford, Derek.|tFrench language in Russia.|dAmsterdam : Amsterdam University Press, [2018] |z9789462982727|w(OCoLC)1043458763 830 0 Languages and culture in history ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2017034262|v8. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1930687|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
