The author of Lolita translates the celebrated, medieval epic Russian poem about a doomed campaign led by Prince Igor Sviatoslavich the Brave. A chivalric expedition is undertaken in the late twelfth century by a minor prince in the land of Rus’ to defeat, against overwhelming odds, a powerful alliance in a neighboring territory. The anonymous poet who chronicled this adventure packed unprecedented metaphorical agility, keenness of observation, and fascinating imagery into the lean and powerful tale of the doomed campaign. Discovered in the late eighteenth century and only narrowly distributed, the original manuscript was destroyed in a fire, leading to endless debate about the provenance and authenticity of the extant versions. It also served as the basis of Borodin’s opera Prince Igor. Translated by Vladimir Nabokov, the verses that constitute “The Song of Igor’s Campaign” are presented in their original rhyme and meter, and Nabokov’s extensive annotations provide illuminations on all the aspects of the text.

This is Robert Mann's translation of the only surviving epic song from the Kievan period. The tale depicts the defeat of Prince Igor Sviatoslavich by the Polovtsy in 1185. As Mann explains in his commentary, the tale incorporates numerous song lines and motifs from early Russian wedding ritual. Phases in the battle are portrayed metaphorically as moments in the wedding ritual. The Kiev prince has a dream that is fashioned after a wedding song in which the bride dreams that she will be taken away from her maiden home. Foreign nations sing praise and reproach, a motif that follows the wedding practice of singing praise and reproach to participants in the wedding. This edition also contains translations of a later epic tale from the Moscow period (known as the Zadonshchina). Mann is the author of: Lances Sing: a Study of the Igor Tale; The Igor Tales and Their Folkloric Background; Pesn' o polku Igoreve; Skazanie o Mamaevom poboishche: Zabytyi spisok N. G. Golovina (Berkeley Slavic Specialties); Where the Ice Never Melts; A Bunch of Stories; Discoveries in Russian Literature: ); Dostoevsky: What They Don't Teach You in School

In 1792 a manuscript was discovered in Moscow which contained a hitherto-unknown epic poem in archaic Russian narrating the events of a military campaign of the 12th-century Russian Prince Igor. Published anonymously in 1795, debate has raged over the work's authorship and authenticity ever since.
