St. Petersburg: Nauka, 2002 416 p Serie: Russkaia Biblioteka Hardcover. 16 x 24 cm ISBN: 5020268348 Language: Russian
This monograph studies the history of one region of Ukraine, the so called Dnieper river Left Bank in the period prior to the takeover of this territory by the Left Bank Ukraine in the second half of the 14th century. The work starts with a geographical essay on Seversk land and then explores the pre-feudal period of its development. The second part of the book deals with the period known as `feudal fragmentation`: several co-existing independent kingdoms, political relations among them, including several wars among the princes (12th-14th centuries), and then the invasion of this land by the Tatars in 1223-1230s. Vladimir Mavrodin (1908-1987) was a pupil of the historian of Old Rus Boris Grekov, a scholar of authority. The first edition of this book was published in 1940. Afterword by A.Iu. Dvornichenko.
