Russian 253: Dreamers,Drunkards,and the Women Who Endured Them:19th-Century Russian Literature
3.00 Credits
Colgate University
I. Helfant Written largely by an educated elite, eerily self-conscious because of czarist censorship and political repression, Russian literature of the 19th century nevertheless confronts many of the crucial concerns of human existence. In this course, students read a combination of short stories and novels, concentrating upon the canonical "greats" (Pushkin, Lermontov, Gogol, Turgenev, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, and Chekhov) but also adding a sampling of writers one might otherwise never encounter, including neglected female authors. By examining literary depictions of such social institutions as dueling and gambling, courtship and marriage, adultery and spousal abuse, work and leisure, the course emphasizes the relationship between literary text and cultural context. Particular attention is paid to the cultural construction of gender, as well as the relationship between humans and nature. A range of theoretical and critical texts informs discussions, as do film adaptations of certain works. All works are read in translation, but a FLAC section of the course may be offered for advanced Russian language students, with a primary emphasis on the development of advanced language skills.

Russian 314: Dostoevsky and His World
3.00 Credits
Colgate University
I. Helfant Reading Dostoevsky's novels is tiring, exhilarating, exasperating, and unsettling. One of the greatest writers of the 19th century, Dostoevsky was obsessed both with the social injustice he saw in czarist Russia and with humanity's eternal struggle between good and evil, religious faith and atheism, rationality and irrationality, sexual lust and purity. One of the characters in The Brothers Karamazov exclaims, "God and Satan are at war and the battleground is the human soul," and Dostoevsky seems to have shared this conviction. In this course students read a variety of Dostoevsky's fictional works, as well as selections from his diaries and journalism in a shared quest to unravel his complexity as a man and as a writer. All works will be read in translation, but a FLAC section may be offered for advanced Russian language students with a primary emphasis on the development of advanced language skill
