Letters to the Editor

To the Editors:

I just wanted to compliment you on a fantastic job. I use articles from nearly every issue for some aspect of my classes on Russian history at California State University, Long Beach. My students especially liked the article on Regent Sophia. “It was interesting and readable,” said one student. The article became the basis for a lively discussion about women, power, and attitudes toward gender in Muscovy. I’ll be using the most recent article about Tsarina Elizabeth (Nov/Dec 2009) to continue the discussion for Petrine Russia. So thanks and keep up the good work!

Best,
