Sobre este artículo
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1977. first edition. hardcover. Book VG+: toning/offset to endpapers and paste downs, light foxing fore edge of text block, text clean and unmarked, binding tight./DJ VG: mild age toning, mild sun to spine, one tiny closed tear top front, NOT clipped.. 8vo 307pp. from front flap: "This brilliant and extensive tour of the Russian mind supplies startlingly fresh insights. Using sharp anecdotes, Ronald Hingley portrays the national brand of leg-pull (vranyo), analyzes the Russian's tendency to keep his official and personal psyche in separate compartments, and deals with that splendid traditional institution, the skandal. As well as discussing the conflicting claims that the Russian mentality is, in spectacular excess, either kind or cruel, generous or mean, energetic or torpid, Hingley describes the phenomena in Russia of campus revolutions, women's lib, female political assassins, alcoholism, the cult of youth, and much more. The Russian Mind is a provocative book that will have great appeal to the American mind." #02412.
