| 3 hours Russia and the West This course explores the central and most controversial issue of Russian literary and philosophical tradition: Russia's relationship to the West. Various events and aspects of Western political and social life, from revolutions to resorts, will be examined through the lens of Russian fiction, travelogues and diaries, philosophy and historiography. We will examine how the images of the West reflect Russia's own cultural biases, national concerns, and aesthetic preoccupations. Central to this issue is Russia's own conceptualization of its identity: is it a part of Europe (the West) or Asia (the East), or a unique hybrid of the two with its own distinct destiny? The course unfolds chronologically, covering three centuries of Russian history from Peter the Great's Westernizing reforms to Putin's all-out war. Readings will include works by Pushkin, Dostoevsky, Mayakovsky, Solzhenitsyn, Pelevin, and Limonov. Restricted to Undergrad - Chicago. | ||||||||
