- Tabachnikova is sole editor of this interdisciplinary, 535-page output, featuring 23 chapters from 24 contributors arranged in five parts. She developed relationships with contributors and undertook all editor duties herself, managing the peer review process and overseeing the work of two translation editors (she also assisted with translating chapters 5 and 18). Tabachnikova wrote the 47-page introduction, setting out the book’s framework and contextualising each contribution as part of that framework. Tabachnikova was also sole author of chapter 11 (‘Patterns of European Irrationalism from Source to Estuary’, 55 pages) which traces breaks and continuities in cases of European irrationalism.

- Additional information
- Tabachnikova is sole editor of this interdisciplinary, 535-page volume, which features 23 chapters from 24 contributors arranged in five parts. The book was conceived following the conference she organised at the University of Bristol (Russian Irrationalism in the Global Context: Sources and Influences, 30-31 March 2010) as part of her Leverhulme Trust Early Career Research Fellowship. Tabachnikova developed and maintained a network of potential contributors, oversaw the collection of drafts, organised the peer review process, and liaised as editor with the publisher, Brill. She also oversaw the work of two translation editors (Elizabeth Harrison and Christopher Tooke) and translated chapters 5 and 18 jointly with Harrison. For the finished work, Tabachnikova compiled the preliminary information, which includes contributor profiles, and wrote the 47-page introduction. The first third of this introduction cogently sets out the framework of the book, and it goes on to summarise and contextualise all contributions as part of that framework. Tabachnikova also wrote one of the volume’s chapters (‘Patterns of European Irrationalism from Source to Estuary’, 55 pages) tracing breaks and continuities in cases of European irrationalism by comparing the radical thought of Hamann and Shestov with the concealed and complex irrationalism of Chekhov.
