Guide

There has never been a consensus on the anglicization and transliteration of east European and Eurasian proper nouns. This difficulty is compounded here by the fact that this volume deals with a vast array of historical periods and geographical regions. In most instances proper nouns are given according to the evolving English-language conventions based on indigenous usage; hence, Belarus rather than Belorussia or Byelorussia, Kyiv rather than Kiev. Normally, the forms remain the same regardless of the period under discussion. It seems to us unduly cumbersome (and, in some cases, simply inaccurate) to use different spellings for the Soviet and post-Soviet periods. Inconsistencies must inevitably arise, but the editors stress that they intend nothing political in the conventions employed here. Names and titles from languages that use non-Latin writing systems are transliterated according to simplified versions of the Library of Congress conventions; the Ukrainian apostrophe, however, is rendered with double quotation marks (). Names and terms that now have a generally accepted form without diacritical marks in English are given as such in the text; hence, Wroclaw, Gdansk, Kazan, Chisinau, Perm, glasnost, etc.
