Abstract:

The majority of interpretations of literary animals focus on the animals' metaphoric or symbolic significance, overlooking the actual animal, which often completely disappears behind its metaphoric or mythological representation. Such traditional interpretations of animals expose the dominant anthropocentric focus of the humanities in general, and literary studies in particular. Yet, even as textual representations a lot of literary animals still exhibit some basic species-specific characteristics. By analyzing selected Russian fairytales through the animal studies perspective I will show that

Rose, Katherine Mae. "Multivalent Russian Medievalism: Old Russia Through New Eyes." Thesis, Harvard University, 2016. http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:33493416.

Abstract:

This thesis explores representations of medieval Russia in cultural and artistic works of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, with an eye to the shifting perceptions of Russia’s cultural heritage demonstrated through these works. The thesis explores the history of medievalism as a field of study and interrogates the reasons that medievalism as a paradigm has not been applied to the field of Russian studies to date. The first chapter is an investigation of architectural monuments incorporating Old Russian motifs, following the trajectory of the “Russian Style” in church architect

This thesis is a cross-disciplinary study of one of the culture-specific words important for a given society ("concepts") concept chest' (honor) - that has a considerable weight in the Russian cultural tradition. The study aims to transcend disciplinary boundaries in order to examine the cultural construction of honor in the Russian Worldview. "Concept" is not just a lexical item but a distinctive "file" containing semantic and aesthetic information. "Concepts" reflect and pass on people's values, ideals, attitudes as well as a way of thinking about the world. They provide important clue

Abstract:

This thesis is an analysis of works derived from Russian literature and cinematography as grouped by the morphemes 'kavkaz' and 'plen' in their titles. During the last 200 years at least ten such works have appeared, the most famous being Pushkin's Prisoner of the Caucasus. These have become a fascinating phenomenon of Russian culture and the goal of my study is to analyze the intertextual links among these works. The study as a whole is based on the approaches developed by Lotman, Barthes, Zholkovsky, Likhachev and others. Thus it takes into account the specific social, historical and cultura

Abstract:

<p> In the past ten years or more, social complexity has taken center stage as the focus of archaeologists working on the Eurasian steppe. The Middle Bronze Age Sintashta period, ca. 2100 - 1700 BC, is often assumed to represent the apex of social complexity for the Bronze Age in the southern Urals region. This assumption has been based on the appearance of twenty-two fortified settlements, chariot burials, and intensified metal production. Some of these studies have incorporated the emergence and subsequent development of mobile pastoralism as their primary foci, while others have concerned t

This thesis examines concepts of history and culture in six texts published between 1986 and 2006, as they relate to the loss of Russia’s future, according to Mikhail Epstein, with the collapse of the Soviet Union. The works, paired by decade in three chapters, are Vladimir Voinovich’s Moscow 2042 (1987) and Andrei Bitov’s “Pushkin’s Photograph” (1989); Andrei Lazarchuk and Mikhail Uspenskii’s Look into the Eyes of Monsters (1998) and Tat’iana Tolstaia’s Slynx (2000); and Sergei Luk’ianenko’s “Girl with the Chinese Lighters” (2002) and Aleksei Kalugin’s “Time Backwards!” (2005).

Abstract:

<p> This dissertation aims in part to redress the shortage of close readings of Vladimir Mayakovsky and Aleksandr Rodchenko's joint project, the book <i> Pro Eto.</i> It explores the relationship between the book's visual and verbal aspects, treating the book and its images as objects that repay attentive looking and careful analysis. By these means this dissertation finds that the images do not simply illustrate the text, but have an intertextual relationship with it: sometimes the images suggest their own, alternative narrative, offering scenes that do not exist in the poem; sometimes they a

Abstract:

Is there a direct correlation between the degree of an artist’s participation in ideologically defined discursive practices and the aesthetic value and expressive innovation of her or his work? How does the concept of the implied audience influence an author’s approach to the creative process? How relevant is the author’s own self-projection in her or his works to their aesthetic quality? Examining these and other questions, this dissertation studies the strategies of an artist’s engagement with or disengagement from repressive political systems which are understood here as mechanisms of putti

Abstract:

This dissertation concentrates on the history of frontiers, borderlands, and empires in Eastern and Central Europe in the eighteenth century. While the existing literature examines mainly ideological and political competitions among the empires for land, resources, and the stateless population; I explore more physical and material spheres of rivalry such as border security, economy and public health. This dissertation explores the politics of the Russian Empire in these spheres in the eighteenth century. It argues that the policies of improvement in migration control, border infrastructure, an

The importance of using an indigenous language as a medium of school instruction has been discussed in world education for a long time.

A 171 year delta C-13 tree-ring chronology from AD 1430 to AD 1600 evidences mostly wet summers during the 15th century but exceptionally dry conditions of the 16th century at the Upper Volga catchme

It provides a comparative analysis of the news values of three television news providers from three differing public systems: BBC’s News at 10, representing a British public service broadcaster, nominally independent of government control; Russia’s Vremya on Channel 1, a state-aligned broadcaster used, to a large extent, as a mouthpiece for the government; and France 2’s 20 Heures, a public service broadcaster, from a media system with a long history of state interve

Abstract:

Soviet writer Vasilii Grossman has been renowned in the West as a dissident author of Life and Fate, which multiple sources, including The New York Times have called "arguably the greatest Russian novel of the 20th century." Grossman, however, was not a dissident, but an official state writer attempting to publish for a Soviet audience. Grossman's work was criticized by Soviets as being "too Jewish", while Jewish scholars have called it "not Jewish enough." And, despite his modern critical acclaim, little scholarship on Grossman exists. In my thesis, I explore these paradoxes. I argue that Gro
