- Abstract
- Disgracing punishments, having originated in the late medieval epoch, survived for at least three centuries, and for over four in Russia. They assumed a gender hue and were practiced in peasant communities up until the 1920s; and it were women (in Russia, as in most other cultures of the patriarchical type) that were subject to infi delity and adultery punishments. The article seeks to answer a range of questions such as: Under what conditions and in what ways were such punishments applied to women in nineteenth and early twentieth century Russia? Why both in Europe and in some parts of Russia were there regions in which these punishments did not exist? What are specifi cities of the Russian practices in regard to disgracing gender-biased violence directed against missteps related to the female body?
