Críticas
Markova and Kamp's translation makes available to English-language readers a resource valuable on two levels. Kamp's comprehensive introduction emphasizes the importance of this work for scholars considering the development of ethnographic method, Russian feminism, and nineteenth-century Russian scholarship more generally. * Religious Studies Review * This work provides us with an enduring portrait of a moment after the Kokand Khanate was defeated, when its forms of Islamic rule were officially gone but before Russian imperial law, administration, and culture had come to dominate rural Central Asian communities. * Acta Via Serica * A uniquely intimate portrait of life in an Uzbek village, by turns fascinating and frustrating. Marianne Kamp and Mariana Markova are to be thanked for their fine job of translating and editing this text. * The Russian Review * Muslim Women of the Fergana Valley is a must-read for students specializing in the history of Russia and Central Asia, women's studies, and anthropology. * H-SAE *
Reseña del editor
Muslim Women of the Fergana Valley is the first English translation of an important 19th-century Russian text describing everyday life in Uzbek communities. Vladimir and Maria Nalivkin were Russians who settled in a "Sart" village in 1878, in a territory newly conquered by the Russian Empire. During their six years in Nanay, Maria Nalivkina learned the local language, befriended her neighbors, and wrote observations about their lives from birth to death. Together, Maria and Vladimir published this account, which met with great acclaim from Russia's Imperial Geographic Society and among Orientalists internationally. While they recognized that Islam shaped social attitudes, the Nalivkins never relied on common stereotypes about the "plight" of Muslim women. The Fergana Valley women of their ethnographic portrait emerge as lively, hard-working, clever, and able to navigate the cultural challenges of early Russian colonialism. Rich with social and cultural detail of a sort not available in other kinds of historical sources, this work offers rare insight into life in rural Central Asia and serves as an instructive example of the genre of ethnographic writing that was emerging at the time. Annotations by the translators and an editor's introduction by Marianne Kamp help contemporary readers understand the Nalivkins' work in context.
