Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Following the break-up of the Soviet Union, various assertions of nations and identities have [re]emerged. This seminar explores the extent to which post-colonial approaches to literature can be utilised in an analysis of literary works produced in the post-Soviet space. We will introduce, discuss, and critique key concepts from post-colonial theory, while drawing on contemporary cultural theory to critically examine the term identity and to problematise commonly deployed identity categories (eg. ‘East’/’West’, ‘Self/Other’, ‘Centre/Periphery’). Alongside an exploration of texts produced in the major urban centers of Russia, our comparative approach will also cover works from geopolitically contested or “peripheral” areas (eg. Ukraine, Caucuses, central Asia).
