Constructing Russian Culture in the Age of Revolution: 1881-1940

This collection offers a pioneering new account of the relationship between literature and other cultural forms in Late Imperial Russia and Revolutionary Russia. The contributors here recontextualize Russian literature, and rethink the relations between literature and other cultural forms. The
book examines a number of, in Bourdieu's term, cultural fields in late Imperial Russia: science and objectivity, national and personal identity, and consumerism and commercial culture. Including contributions from leading specialists in Russian literature, cultural history, and cultural theory,
this stimulating, original, and controversial book will be a vital resource for all those interested in Russian culture during the age of Revolution.
