The Keys to Happiness by Laura Engelstein

The Keys to Happiness by Laura Engelstein

The revolution of 1905 challenged not only the social and political structures of imperial Russia but the sexual order as well. Throughout the decade that followed-in the salons of the artistic and intellectual avant-garde, on the pages of popular romances...

[Engelstein's] sensitivity to the interplay of conceptions of gender and class with politics and science makes the book valuable not only to Russianists, but to historians of culture and society in general... Laura Engelstein has made a remarkable contribution to the scholarly literature.
