In Search of the True Russia: The Provinces in Contemporary Nationalist Discourse de Lyudmila Parts

In Search of the True Russia: The Provinces in Contemporary Nationalist Discourse

Autor Lyudmila Parts
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 aug 2020
Russia's provinces have long held a prominent place in the nation's cultural imagination. Popular culture has increasingly turned from the newly prosperous, multiethnic, and westernized Moscow to celebrate the hinterlands as repositories of national traditions and moral strength. Lyudmila Parts argues that this change has directed debate about Russia's identity away from its loss of imperial might and global prestige and toward a hermetic national identity based on the opposition of "us vs. us" rather than "us vs. them." In Search of the True Russia offers an intriguing analysis of the contemporary debate over what it means to be Russian.

Recenzii

"A fascinating study of how the internal Other of the provinces has been replacing the external Other of the West in post-Soviet cultural discourse. Useful for anyone interested in contemporary Russian culture."
—Anne Lounsbery, New York University

“A valuable exploration of how the symbolic geography of the provinces as an authentic Russian space is connected to the discourse of Russian nationalism.”—Russian Review
“A thought-provoking, topical book about an important theme. . . . In her comprehensive book, Lyudmila Parts analyses this phenomenon, the significance of the provinces in the new Russia, from the viewpoint of literature, journalism and cinema.”—Scando-Slavica

Notă biografică
