Music plays on Moldavanka: New essays on criminal and street songs
9.99 €
In the book of the writer, journalist and researcher of criminal subculture and grassroots folklore Alexander Sidorov collected essays on the famous noble and street songs – “Moldavanka music plays”, “Swim you, our boat is gentle”, “When I was a boy”, “Mitrofanov cemetery” and others. As in his famous book “The Song of My Moork”, the author tells not only about the history of the creation of pearls of “blat classics”, but also about many little-known historical and everyday facts related to them. The reader will be able to learn a lot of interesting information about the construction of the White Sea-Baltic Canal, the development of legal proceedings at the dawn of Soviet power, the rise and fall of the Socialist-Revolutionaries, as well as, if desired, to understand such specific topics as the basics of hand-to-hand “hooligan combat”, the classification of knives and daggers and the “cocainization” of Russia in the first decades of the last century.
