The Great Russian Famine of...

Sarah Willards

The Great Russian Famine of 1601-1603 was one of the most catastrophic events in Russian history, causing widespread death, social instability, and economic distress. This famine occurred during a period of political turmoil, just after the death of Tsar Ivan the Terrible and amid the struggle for the Russian throne. The famine’s impact was felt across Russia, particularly in the central and southern regions, and it highlighted both the fragility of the agrarian economy and the vulnerability of the Russian people to climatic and political disruptions.
The context of the famine is crucial to understanding its devastating effects. In the late 16th century, Russia was already experiencing significant strain, including the collapse of the feudal system, a declining central government, and the outbreak of the Time of Troubles, a series of civil wars and foreign invasions. The Russian agricultural system, heavily dependent on the success of yearly harvests, was not equipped to deal with the combination of extreme weather, crop failure, and a lack of effective governance.
The famine itself was primarily caused by a series of poor harvests, which were exacerbated by severe weather conditions, including droughts and unseasonably cold winters. The summer of 1601 saw a significant drought, which devastated crops, and the following winter brought freezing temperatures that further hindered the ability to cultivate food. As a result, grain production plummeted, and prices soared, making food increasingly inaccessible to the general population.

Common Ground - Second Language...

Florencia G. Henshaw, Maris D....

"Common Ground is accessible to teachers at all levels yet firmly rooted in current questions of second language acquisition (SLA). One of its primary strengths is the authors themselves, both of whom are accomplished language teachers who understand the challenges and opportunities in communication-focused language teaching. Their experience, expertise, insight, and enthusiasm for language teaching translate into a book that is refreshingly practical for teachers, especially teachers who are striving to break from traditional drills commonly presented in textbooks. I hope this book finds its way into the hands of every language teacher who is looking for concrete examples of how SLA principles meet the realities of the classroom." —Stacey Margarita Johnson, Vanderbilt University
