This issue focuses on Russia’s capital city as myth, as physical history, and as the future. Moscow began as the Tsar’s seat and centre of an empire (Moscow, the Third Rome Irina Sokolova), it has always led a dramatic and apocalyptic existence as Sergei Rumiantsev explores in a pyro-history of the city (A Fire in Russia is More than Just a Fire), and a turbulent and its politicised architectural history is made apparent through the discussion of Stalinist architecture in Alexei Tarkhanov’s A Vision of Paradise and Moscow Metamorphoses by Catherine Cooke. We also get a glimpse of how the city is expected to progress in the 21st Century (Moscow as a Global City Catherine Cooke). This ROSSICA is an introduction to a city too often overlooked or underestimated by visitors to Russia.
