"Original Russia" is a multifaceted work, two lines are clearly drawn in it: the Slavs and Byzantium. At the very time when great creative work is going on in Russia, the mercenaries of the Second Rome are destroying myriads of "heretics", devastating Asia Minor, Egypt, North Africa, burning Italy with a war - the Eastern Empire, which has begun to impoverish, fiercely defends the slave-owning order and the interests of the autocratic church.< /p>

In this novel, Valentin Ivanov acts not only as a writer, but also as a researcher-historian. "Original Russia" is the first work not only in Russian, but also in world literature, dedicated to the era of the VI century.
