Slavs and Tatars: Mirrors for Princes

Marc Notes: This publication brings together the writing of preeminent scholars and commentators, using the genre of medieval advice literature as a starting point, to discuss fate and fortune versus governance, advice for female nobility, and an Indian television drama as a form of translation of statecraft.
