Overview

English summary: ""Voices from the Steppe"" presents 101 sources on the history of the Kazakh Steppe and Russia's South Urals region from the sixteenth to the mid-twentieth century. It offers a range of texts-local histories, songs, poems, letters, memoirs, religious-legal writings, and official documents--that shed light on politics, culture, spirituality, economic activities, gender, and daily life in one of the world's great grasslands. The volume foregrounds the voices and experiences of ethnic non-Russians in living in what eventually became part of the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union. The texts have been translated from published and unpublished materials in Kazakh, Tatar, Bashkir, and Russian, and are appearing in English for the first time. German description: Das Buch umfasst 101 Quellen zur Geschichte der kasachischen Steppe und der russischen Region Sudural vom 16. bis zur Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Es vereint eine Reihe von Texten - lokale Geschichten, Lieder, Gedichte, Briefe, Erinnerungen, religios-rechtliche Schriften und offizielle Dokumente -, die Aufschluss geben uber Politik, Kultur, Spiritualitat, wirtschaftliche Aktivitaten, Geschlecht und das tagliche Leben in einem der grossten Graslander der Welt. Der Band stellt die Stimmen und Erfahrungen von ethnischen Nicht-Russen in den Vordergrund, die in dem Gebiet lebten, das schliesslich Teil des Russischen Reiches und der Sowjetunion wurde. Die Texte wurden aus veroffentlichten und unveroffentlichten Materialien in Kasachisch, Tatarisch, Baschkirisch und Russisch ubersetzt und erscheinen zum ersten Mal in englischer Sprache.
