History of Adyghe Literature

Autor Kadir I. Natho
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 aug 2019
This book "History of Adyghe Literature II" is the continuation of volume I, describes and analyzes the literary works of Adyghe writers in the Soviet Unions and covers the complex and productive creative period of the fifties-sixties of the twentieth century. It shows that, despite the rigid Party regulations and strict frameworks and "conflict-free theory," especially after and before Khrushchev's "thaw" and regardless of constant reproaches and insistence of critics and Party leaders that writers should write only on the themes of revolution, collective farms and Great Patriotic War, how Adyghe writers stubbornly worked and succeeded to create great literary works practically in all literary genres, especially great novels. I am trying to present this rich, great and interesting literary treasure to the English reader.
