Edited by Mark Lipovetsky, Lisa Wakamiya
Part of the Cultural Syllabus series
Hardback
Description
Late- and Post-Soviet Russian Literature: A Reader is an introduction to the most important works of Russian literature of the last fifty years. Organised both chronologically and thematically, it is a structured presentation of significant cultural developments and literary works intended for wide use in undergraduate courses on Russian literature and culture.
Each chapter includes a selection of literary texts, excerpts from the Russian press, and scholarly writings that help to elucidate the relationship between art, its historical and cultural contexts, and its reception.
Much of the reader’s contents will appear in English translation for the first time.
At present, no anthology of late- and post-Soviet writing exists.
Late- and Post-Soviet Russian Literature: A Reader addresses this absence, and brings university curricula in Russian literature, culture, history, and area studies into the twenty-first century.
