Pressezitat
“Keenan does a fine job of giving us a sense of the period’s byt’, Russian for ‘everyday life’. … excellent and novel feature of the book is Keenan’s frequent comparison of St Petersburg to other contemporary European cities such as London, Vienna and Paris. … Keenan’s book offers a much better sense of what was typical and exceptional in St Petersburg in the eighteenth century than has previously been available.” (Simon Werrett, History, Vol. 100 (341), July, 2015)"Like his mentor Lindsey Hughes's work, Keenan's book is clear, authoritative and lively. It is therefore a worthy monument to her memory." - G. M. Hamburg, Slavonic & East European Review
"In St Petersburg and the Russian Court, 1703-1761, Paul Keenan offers a comprehensive and succinct analysis of the city ... Its value to scholars of eighteenth-century Russia goes without saying." - Colum Leckey, Canadian Slavonic Papers
