I am delighted to see that finally one of the interminable postings I do about books has provoked a response and hope that this exchange will not be one of the last on EarlySlavic, if no one has stepped forward to take over being the list moderator.
Daniel Waugh’s review raises many important issues related to early printing in Muscovy. One of them is the complex relationship between printed books and manuscripts. I could not agree more with Dan’s assessment of I. V. Pozdeeva’s enormous contribution to our understanding of this problem. However, the whole idea of juxtaposing printed and manuscript cultures, and correspondingly the debate about which culture had a greater impact on Muscovy seem to become increasingly irrelevant.
