The metaphor of the nomad may at first seem surprising for Russia given its history of serfdom, travel restrictions, and strict social hierarchy. This book traces the image of the nomad and its relationship to Russian national identity through the debates and discussion of works by writers like Karamzin, Pushkin, Goncharov, and Dostoevsky.
