Women in Ancient Rus

The role of women in Ancient Rus is not always given a proper assessment. Women often remain in the shadows of male figures and are perceived as the keepers of the hearth. Tatiana Muraveva's book "Wives and Maidens of Ancient... Rus" is a comprehensive study that tells about the role of women in the formation and history of the ancient Russian state. What influence did the ancient Russian princesses have on their husbands and brothers? How did Princess Olga transform from a bereaved widow into a avenger, and why did she accept Christianity? How did Anna Yaroslavna become the queen of France and fight for her happiness? What was called "the lament of Yaroslavna," and did it really exist? How did the daughters of foreign rulers become the wives of Russian princes? Was it all a coincidence or the design of the heroines of this book? You will find the answers to these questions in the book.
