| Abstract: | 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 interdisciplimary, 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 |

The French Language in Russia examines 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, it affords insight into the social, political, cultural, and literary implications and effects of bilingualism in a speech community and the ways in which languages and the cultures associated with them may be shared across national boundaries. Emeritus Professor Derek Offord is Senior Research Fellow at the University of Bristol. He is a specialist in Russian cultural and intellectual history and has also written on the modern Russian language. Dr Vladislav Rjéoutskí is Research Fellow at the German Historical Institute in Moscow. He is a specialist in eighteenth-century Russian and French social and cultural history and the history of education. DrGesine Argent is Centre Managerand Research Associate at the Princess Dashkova Russian Centre at the University of Edinburgh. Her research focuses on Russian language culture, language ideology, and language purism. This is an exemplary study of the history of language, it deserves to be a model for future studies of other languages.The scholarship is impeccable, the range of reading is wide, the judgements inspire confidence. - Peter Burke, Emmanuel College Cambridge
