What Makes a Restaurant Ethnic? (A Case Study Of
FORUM FOR ANTHROPOLOGY AND CULTURE, 2017, NO. 13 WHAT MAKES A RESTAURANT ETHNIC? (A CASE STUDY OF ARMENIAN RESTAURANTS IN ST PETERSBURG) Evgenia Guliaeva Th e Russian Museum of Ethnography 4/1 Inzhenernaya Str., St Petersburg, Russia [email protected] A b s t r a c t: Using restaurants in St Petersburg serving Armenian cuisine as a case study, the article studies the question of what makes an ethnic restaurant ethnic, what may be learnt about ethnicity by studying a restaurant serving a national cuisine, and to what extent the image of Armenian cuisine presented in Armenian restaurants corresponds to what Armenian informants tell us. The conclusion is that the composition of the menu in these restaurants refl ects a view of Armenian cuisine from within the ethnic group itself. The representation of ethnicity is achieved primarily by discursive means. Neither owners, nor staff, nor customers from the relevant ethnic group, nor the style of the interior or music are necessary conditions for a restaurant to be accepted as ethnic. However, their presence is taken into account when the authenticity or inauthenticity of the restaurant is evaluated. Armenian informants, though, do not raise the question of authenticity: this category is irrelevant for them. Keywords: Armenians, ethnicity, ethnic restaurants, national cuisine, authenticity, St Petersburg. To cite: Guliaeva E., ‘What Makes a Restaurant Ethnic?

The Semiotics of Advertising In
THE SEMIOTICS OF ADVERTISING IN POST-SOCIALIST RUSSIA: CULTURALLY SIGNIFICANT MEANINGS IN TELEVISION COMMERCIALS DURING THE PERIOD OF TRANSITION AND GLOBALIZATION By Alexander Minbaev Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Marsha Siefert CEU eTD Collection Second Reader: Professor György Endre Szönyi Budapest, Hungary 2013 Abstract This thesis aims to answer a research question of how television commercials appealed to Russian national identity using culturally significant meanings in post-socialist context. In order to do so the thesis examines television commercials adopting semiotic approach. Using of semiotics presupposes the analysis of advertisements as system of signs and as narratives. Commercials are analyzed within their historical context from the late 1980s to the early 2000s. Thesis focuses on the culturally significant meanings deployed in the television advertising through folklore, nostalgia, stereotypes and history in order to appeal to Russian national identity. Commercials chosen for semiotic analysis are taken from different periods of post- socialist Russian history and are examined as case studies, each of which appealing to Russianness using specific techniques, thus comprising a unique style of Russian advertising. Depending on a particular time period within the development of Russian post-socialist advertising, different methods were applied to appeal to potential consumers through exploitations of shared beliefs and values, including national identity that forms the continuous field within the frame of post-socialist advertising. Using semiotic tools from the studies of signs, such as binary opposition, the thesis examines commercials both interpretatively and within their historical context. -
