Africa in Russia, Russia in Africa Three Centuries of Encounters edited by Maxim Matusevich

An interdisciplinary collection of essays on the history of political and cultural ties between Africa and Russia/the Soviet Union. An impressive international group of scholars - historians, political scientists and literary critics - come together to define the dimensions and to analyse and interpret the substance of these encounters. From the African ancestry of Russia's greatest poet to the experiences of radical black pilgrims in the USSR and the Soviet Union's Cold War adventures in Russia, it's all here.
