A history of Slavic studies in the United States by Clarence Augustus Manning
"A History of Slavic Studies in the United States" by Clarence Augustus Manning is an historical account written in the mid-20th century. This work explores the development and evolution of Slavic studies within the American educational and cultural landscape. Manning's analysis highlights how factors such as immigration and cultural exchange have shaped the study of Slavic languages, history, and culture in the United States, considering both formal academic frameworks and the contributions
of immigrant communities." "At the start of this historical account, the author outlines the challenges and complexities involved in compiling a comprehensive history of Slavic studies in the U.S. Manning emphasizes the slow emergence of formal Slavic studies in higher education, which largely began through individual efforts and gradually gained traction. He discusses the influence of various waves of Slavic immigration, especially in the context of American life and the unique factors that differentiate Slavic studies in the U.S. from those in other Western countries. The opening sets the stage for a detailed exploration of the contributions and challenges faced by emigrants and scholars alike in integrating Slavic culture into the broader American consciousness."
