SLAV 28400 /38400 - Symbolism,Acmeism,and Futurism

Institution:

University of Chicago

Subject:

Description:

In 1910 Russian Symbolism, the dominant literary trend of its day, underwent a very public crisis, eventually resulting in the rise of two rival movements, Acmeism and Futurism, which dominated the Russian literary scene into the 1920s. We survey late symbolist writing and read as much as possible by the Acmeists and Futurists, contextualizing the readings in broader cultural history, particularly developments in the visual arts. We also use the three movements as an example of literary history. Winter.
