"Pushkin is ours, Soviet!": Essays on the history of philological science in the Stalin era
29.99 €

Soviet humanities, contrary to popular belief, were not a sphere for the implementation of purely political ideas: intellectual life in the Stalin era was a complex mixture of personal interests and public demand. The book by Vladimir Turchanenko and Dmitry Tsyganov is devoted to a particular episode in Soviet intellectual history from the 1920s to the 1950s and is built around the idea of “classics” and “classicality,” which was very significant for Stalinist culture and which, under the watchful eye of party functionaries, was embodied in the almost sacred figure of A.S. Pushkin through the efforts of humanities theorists. In this book, the history of Soviet Pushkin studies ceases to be a series of dates, events, and names: the researchers reconstruct the circumstances of public discussions and internal intrigues, behind which the struggle for institutional and managerial resources was often hidden. Reflecting on the key ideas, projects, and personalities of philological science in the 1920s–1950s, the authors place them in the rapidly changing context of Stalin’s cultural policy. Vladimir Turchanenko is a philologist, historian of literature and culture, specialist in intellectual history and the history of Pushkin studies, and research fellow at the Institute of Russian Literature and Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Dmitry Tsyganov is a philologist, historian of literature and culture, specialist in intellectual history and the history of Soviet literary studies, and research fellow at the Institute of Russian Literature and Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
