Description:

This course will examine Russian identity as it is expressed in the literature of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Russian attitudes toward Western Europe and the East, which are fundamental to modern Russian culture, will be considered. The course will also focus on two major crises of identity - one caused by emigration, the other by multiculturalism. The latter crisis includes the rise of Jewish identity in Russia from the late nineteenth century into the twentieth, as well as the ambiguous status of Soviet Russia as a multicultural state. Taught in English. Offered every two years.
