First published in English in 1977, The Spirit of Russia by Thomas Garrigue Masaryk, edited by George Gibian, is a profound exploration of Russian thought, literature, and culture.

Masaryk’s incisive analysis of Russian character, politics, and literature makes this book an essential resource for understanding Russia’s intellectual and cultural heritage. This is a must read for scholars of Russian literature.
