  Examines the Silver Age as a cultural construct - the byproduct of an anxiety that permeated society in reaction to the social, political, and cultural upheavals brought on by the Bolshevik Revolution, the fall of the Romanovs, the Civil War, and Stalin's Great Terror. This title analyzes why it occupies such prominence in Russian consciousness.
