Russian Regional Flags
Description:
For the first time since the breakup of the Soviet Union, the flags of all federal subjects of Russia--Republics, Oblasts, Krais, and more--are documented in one volume in English. Based on a paper which won the Captain William Driver Award for scholarly achievement in Vexillology, this book belongs on every flag-lover's bookshelf.
Its 89 articles cover current and merged federal subjects. Each article provides the description of the territory's flag, including its proportions, year of adoption, designer(s), history, and meaning. A locator map places the territory in Russia, with grayscale illustrations of the flag and arms in each article. (81 of 83 current subjects have flags--8 more merged subjects are covered.)
32 pages of full-color plates illustrate the flags and arms described in the articles in beautiful detail.
All of the federal subjects are identified in English, Russian, and transliterated Russian. An extensive analysis of the flags explores their design, colors, symbolism, and meaning.
This book is a special issue of Raven, the annual scholarly journal of the North American Vexillological Association (NAVA); it is Volume 16--2009. Raven is a peer-reviewed journal published by NAVA: nava.org, and edited by Edward B. Kaye.
