Book Synopsis The Cambridge Companion to Twentieth-Century Russian Literature by : Evgeny Dobrenko
Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to Twentieth-Century Russian Literature written by Evgeny Dobrenko and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-02-17 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Russian history, the twentieth century was an era of unprecedented, radical transformations - changes in social systems, political regimes, and economic structures. A number of distinctive literary schools emerged, each with their own voice, specific artistic character, and ideological background. As a single-volume compendium, the Companion provides a new perspective on Russian literary and cultural development, as it unifies both émigré literature and literature written in Russia. This volume concentrates on broad, complex, and diverse sources - from symbolism and revolutionary avant-garde writings to Stalinist, post-Stalinist, and post-Soviet prose, poetry, drama, and émigré literature, with forays into film, theatre, and literary policies, institutions and theories. The contributors present recent scholarship on historical and cultural contexts of twentieth-century literary development, and situate the most influential individual authors within these contexts, including Boris Pasternak, Alexander Solzhenitsyn, Joseph Brodsky, Osip Mandelstam, Mikhail Bulgakov and Anna Akhmatova.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 1987 a group of published novelists, poets, and journalists met in Vienna to participate in the Wheatland Conference on Literature.

Each explored different facets of the condition of exile, providing answers to questions such as: What do exiled writers have in common? What is the exile's obligation to colleagues and readers in the country of origin? Is the effect of changing languages one of enrichment or impoverishment? How does the new society treat the emigre? Following each essay is a peer discussion of the topic addressed. The volume includes writers whose origins lie in Central Europe, South Africa, Israel, Cuba, Chile, Somalia, and Turkey. Through their testimony of the creative process in exile, we gain insight into the forces which affect the creative process as a whole. Contributors.

Book Synopsis Redefining Russian Literary Diaspora, 1920-2020 by : Maria Rubins
Download or read book Redefining Russian Literary Diaspora, 1920-2020 written by Maria Rubins and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the century that has passed since the start of the massive post-revolutionary exodus, Russian literature has thrived in multiple locations around the globe. What happens to cultural vocabularies, politics of identity, literary canon and language when writers transcend the metropolitan and national boundaries and begin to negotiate new experience gained in the process of migration? Redefining Russian Literary Diaspora, 1920-2020 sets a new agenda for the study of Russian diaspora writing, countering its conventional reception as a subsidiary branch of national literature and reorienting the field from an excessive emphasis on the homeland and origins to an analysis of transnational circulations that shape extraterritorial cultural practices. Integrating a variety of conceptual perspectives, ranging from diaspora and postcolonial studies to the theories of translation and self-translation, World Literature and evolutionary literary criticism, the contributors argue for a distinct nature of diasporic literary expression predicated on hybridity, ambivalence and a sense of multiple belonging. As the complementary case studies demonstrate, diaspora narratives consistently recode historical memory, contest the mainstream discourses of Russianness, rewrite received cultural tropes and explore topics that have remained marginal or taboo in the homeland. These diverse discussions are framed by a focused examination of diaspora as a methodological perspective and its relevance for the modern human condition.

Book excerpt: Exile and Identity focuses on the experiences of hundreds of thousands of Polish women forcibly transported deep into the USSR as prisoners or "special settlers" after the Soviet invasion and annexation of eastern Poland in 1939. Using firsthand accounts ranging from the briefly factual to the intensely personal, Katherine R. Jolluck reconstructs the daily lives and attitudes of Polish women based on reports collected upon their amnesty and evacuation from the USSR.

Book Synopsis The House of the Dead by : Daniel Beer
Download or read book The House of the Dead written by Daniel Beer and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Cundill History Prize The House of the Dead tells the incredible hundred-year-long story of “the vast prison without a roof” that was Russia’s Siberian penal colony. From the beginning of the nineteenth century until the Russian Revolution, the tsars exiled more than a million prisoners and their families east. Here Daniel Beer illuminates both the brutal realities of this inhuman system and the tragic and inspiring fates of those who endured it. Siberia was intended to serve not only as a dumping ground for criminals and political dissidents, but also as new settlements. The system failed on both fronts: it peopled Siberia with an army of destitute and desperate vagabonds who visited a plague of crime on the indigenous population, and transformed the region into a virtual laboratory of revolution. A masterly and original work of nonfiction, The House of the Dead is the history of a failed social experiment and an examination of Siberia’s decisive influence on the political forces of the modern world.
Book Synopsis Bread of Exile by : Dimitri Obolensky
Download or read book Bread of Exile written by Dimitri Obolensky and published by Harvill Secker. This book was released on 1999 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bread of Exile tells a remarkable story of the Russian nobility both before and after the October Revolution. It draws on hitherto unpublished private diaries, memoirs and notebooks spanning almost two centuries, written by Dimitri Obolensky's father, Prince Dimitri Aleksandrovich Obolensky, his mother, Countess Mary Shuvalov, his step-father Count Andre Tolstoy, his grandmother Countess Sandra Shuvalov, and his great-aunt, Sofka Demidov. The members of Dimitri Obolensky's family were aristocratic witnesses to successive phases of Russian history. These texts provide a fascinating documentation of life at the courts of Tsar Alexander III and Nicholas II, of the revolutionary unrest before and during World War I, the rise of Bolshevism, civil war and the realities of exile and emigration. The book gives an exceptional insight into the state of mind of the Russian emigre population and concludes with reminiscences of his childhood and his distinguished academic career by Sir Dimitri Obolensky himself.
