Anachronism Stew | |
| The Winternight Trilogy / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Invoked. Many of the female characters wear sarafans despite the trilogy taking place centuries before such outfits became popular. The author explains their appearance in the glossary of the first book, saying many Western audiences associate this dress with medeival Russia and she deliberately played to these perceptions. | |

Bears Are Bad News | |
| The Winternight Trilogy / int_8d718b9e | comment |
Bears Are Bad News: Medved, the Big Bad of the first book, often takes of massive one-eyed bear; his name is even slavic for "bear." Apparently an Invoked Trope: he's essentially the Anthropomorphic Personification of fear, specifically fear of death, and to the ancient Slavic peoples, bears were the scariest things around, and their beliefs shaped him accordingly. | |

Wicked Stepmother | |
| The Winternight Trilogy / int_b070362d | comment |
Wicked Stepmother: Anna Ivanovna is often very mean to her stepdaughter Vasya and tries to make her join a convent even though she knows Vasya would hate that. In some ways this is explored more deeply than is usually the case; Anna Ivanovna is herself a victim of mistreatment, abuse, and manipulation, is intensely faithful to the Orthodox Church but has the power to see spirits, leading her to believe that she is haunted by demons everywhere she goes (while everyone else, who can't see the spirits, merely believe she is insane and treat her as such), is only a little older than the girl she's a stepmother to, and was put in an unwanted Arranged Marriage when all she wanted to do was become a nun. She's an antagonist to Vasya, certainly, but she's also quite pitiable. | |

Death of the Old Gods | |
| The Winternight Trilogy / int_d2a11313 | comment |
Death of the Old Gods: The figures of old Russian mythology are increasingly pushed aside by the Orthodox Church. Vasilisa has the power to see both household and wild spirits, and grows up in the deep country, where those spirits are still given at least some belief. Later, as she travels elsewhere in Russia, she sees that the Church has almost wiped out belief in these figures, and as such they are rapidly fading from the world entirely. | |
