  • The Philosophy of Man in M. Gorky's Play “The Lower Depths”
    Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 5 (2016 9) 1089-1100 ~ ~ ~ УДК 82-21 The Philosophy of Man in M. Gorky’s Play “The Lower Depths” Olga V. Bogdanova* St.-Petersburg State University 11 Universitetskaya nab., St.-Petersburg, 199134, Russia Received 13.03.2016, received in revised form 20.03.2016, accepted 24.04.2016 A new approach to understanding ideological and philosophical structure of M. Gorky’s play «The Lower Depths» (1902) is offered in the article. According to the analysis, it is not a dualistic opposition of the concepts of “verity” or “compassion”, “truth” or “lie” that lies at the heart of the play, but progressive synthesis of the philosophical ideas, formed by the progression from the lowest to the highest. In contrast to the customary dualism, traditional for Russian Gorky’s work studies, the triad of Gorky’s philosophical ideas “paganism – Christianity – a new philosophy” that is consistently mediated by the ideas of Platonism, the doctrine of Leo Tolstoy and nietzscheanism is studied in the article. The article studies how the system of characters in Gorky’s play has disintegrates into three conventional groups, through which the gradual evolution of formation of Gorky’s image of Man is traced. The analysis shows how from the “wild” human-animals (according to Plato), through religious acceptance of one God (Christ), the characters of the play come to the highest step of the evolutionary ladder – to the Proud Man (following Nietzsche). Each of the Gorky’s drama characters embodies a certain stage of ascension: Kvashnya, Nastya and the Baron are “wild” Plato’s human- animals, the Actor and Luka are the representatives of the humanistic ideas of Christianity, mediated by the doctrine of L.

  • Workers and Intelligentsia in Late Imperial Russia: Realities, Representations, Reflections
    Workers and Intelligentsia in Late Imperial Russia: Realities, Representations, Reflections Edited by Reginald E. Zelnik Description: The collapse of the Soviet Union opened previously unimagined possibilities for insight into Russian social, intellectual, and political history. This volume, a collaboration of American, Russian, and West European scholars, illuminates the creation and complex dynamics of the Russian industrial working class from its peasant origins in the mid-nineteenth century to the collapse of the imperial system in 1917. The authors focus on the shifting attitudes, cultural norms, self-representations, and increasing self-consciousness of workers as they interacted with the new social movements, student groups, the Church, and most dramatically, the political (mainly radical and liberal) intelligentsia. But the authors also examine the obverse: the contending representations of workers by the intelligentsia as they interacted with each other ever more intensely during this turbulent period leading up to the Russian Revolution. The result is a fascinating and detailed account of social and cultural transformation in a key period of Russian — and world — history. RESEARCH SERIES / NUMBER 101 WORKERS AND INTELLIGENTSIA IN LATE IMPERIAL RUSSIA: REALITIES, REPRESENTATIONS, REFLECTIONS REGINALD E. ZELNIK, EDITOR UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT BERKELEY Three of the essays in this book have been published in somewhat different forms as journal articles. The essay by S. A. Smith first appeared (as part of a larger study of St. Petersburg and Shanghai) in International Review of Social History 41 (1996). The essay by William G.

  • In the Spring Quarter of 1946 I Returned from the War to Long-Awaited Civilian Life
    In the spring quarter of 1946 I returned from the war to long-awaited civilian life. I had no civilian clothes and so had my army khakis died dark blue. My waist was still a trim 29 inches-a measurement never to be seen again. My financial support came from the GI bill, that wonder that allowed new life for returnees and sparked the economy of the country. The amount was not large but offered the chance for what the returning soldier most desired, a home, a wife and babies. This was the start of the baby boom. I registered for Professsor Elliott's famous course on Personality. We met in one of the larger classrooms of Folwell Hall with a group that seemed to number about 70 or more. Elliott looked out on the group and announced that the class was double-numbered and therefore was open to juniors and seniors as well as to graduate students. It would encompass psychological works on personality and would culminate in a paper of graduate dimensions to encompass the life of a hero or heroine of our choice. We were to assemble information to indicate the formation ofthe personality of that person. "The requirements of this class and of the paper will be the same for graduate students and undergraduates." This announcement had the desired effect. The second meeting revealed a class of manageable dimensions. Prof. Elliott occasionally drew upon his own life for examples. He compared the choice points that a person faced to a railway switch. One could make a choice but all too often that was the easiest choice determined by the past already=set experiences-not the road less traveled of Robert Frost.

  • International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach And
    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Approach and Studies ISSN NO:: 2348 – 537X Cinema Serving as Mirror to Society Ram Awtar Yadav Assistant Professor, Department of Journalism & Mass Communication, Guru Ghasidas University, Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, India ABSTRACT: Cinema, since its very beginning, has been a great medium of reflection of the socio- economic and political changes of the society. Films have an immense potential to project the images of a society in a way that conventional mediums never could. The Indian film industry is one of the largest film industries of the world exploring the images of the Indian society through cinema. Many films are made every year with the social issues on their backdrop. And this trend has been prevalent since the start of the filmmaking in India. The filmmakers like Satyajit Ray, V Santaram, Satyen Bose, Raj Kapoor, Shyam Benegal, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Prakash Jha, Mani Rathnam, Bimal Roy, Mehboob Khan, Amir Khan, Rajkumar Hirani, Madhur Bhandarkar and many others to name in the country who, through their hard-hitting and realistic films, have made people give some serious thoughts over the prevailing social and political issues in the society. The Indian films made on the backdrop of social issues started getting international recognition even before our country India was not independent. Film, ‘Neecha Nagar’ directed by Chetan Anand in the year 1946 was a pioneering effort in Indian cinema that inspired many filmmakers to make films based on social issues. Neecha Nagar was the first Indian film to gain recognition at international level as it won Grand Prix du Festival International du Film, the highest award at the first Cannes Film Festival in 1946.

  • Russian Literary Portraiture in the Twentieth Century: Collecting and Re-Collecting Lichnosti in Criticism and Memoir
    Russian Literary Portraiture in the Twentieth Century: Collecting and Re-Collecting Lichnosti in Criticism and Memoir by Daniel Aaron Brooks A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Harsha Ram, Chair Professor Olga Matich Professor Irina Paperno Professor Victoria Frede Summer 2015 Russian Literary Portraiture in the Twentieth Century: Collecting and Re-Collecting Lichnosti in Criticism and Memoir © 2015 by Daniel Aaron Brooks Abstract Russian Literary Portraiture in the Twentieth Century: Collecting and Re-Collecting Lichnosti in Criticism and Memoir by Daniel Aaron Brooks Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures University of California, Berkeley Professor Harsha Ram, Chair This dissertation offers a select history of the literary portrait genre in Russian culture from its genesis in the 1890s through the 1960s. I define the literary portrait as a succinct account of a particular author's individual or creative personality – in Russian, lichnost' – that readily lends itself to anthologization, in which that literary portrait acquires additional meaning through the comparative or cumulative format in which it participates. In tracing the developments in the genre through a series of representative portrait collections, I focus in particular on two historical moments: 1905-1914, when literary portraiture moved beyond its original Symbolist confines, courted a wider reading audience, and became a key genre for the theorization and explication of Russian modernity; and the post-Revolutionary period, when writers both in emigration and within the Soviet Union repeatedly turned to the genre as a means of shaping narratives about late imperial and early Soviet culture.

  • Cult of the 'Urka': Criminal Subculture in the Gulag, 1924-1953
    Cult of the ‘Urka’: Criminal Subculture in the Gulag, 1924-1953 Mark Vincent A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History September 2015 © ‘‘This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any formation derived there from must be in accordance with current UK copyright law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution.’’ Abstract Although a large body of work has been amassed on the Gulag a number of voices remain excluded. Criminal subculture had a profound influence on daily life in the camps yet academic study has lagged behind other groups, such as political prisoners. Without gaining a better understanding of the inner workings of the world of the criminals, our knowledge and understanding of Gulag society remains incomplete. This thesis contributes primarily to answering two broad questions within the current scholarship on the Gulag: (1) How were approaches and perceptions of criminality shaped during the period in question? And (2) What can we learn from the reconstruction of criminal subculture from the large literary corpus regarding life in the camps? These issues are not easily separated, with the second often self-consciously playing into the first. The first question is explored in the first section of the thesis, which examines a number of well-known images of criminal subculture across the revolutionary divide of 1917 and discussions of criminality found in the early prison press (1918-1930).

  • The Lower Depths Is a Harrowing, Violent and Uncompromising Portrayal of the Human Sprit at Its Lowest Ebb, with Destitution and Death an Ever Present Spectre
    Press Information finborough theatre ‘ The Steam Industry and the finborough theatre present THE LOWER DEPTHS SCENES FROM RUSSIAN LIFE by Maxim Gorky. The world premiere of a new version. Written and Directed by Phil Willmott. Designed by Nicky Bunch. Lighting by Hansjorg Schmidt. Costume Design by Nell Knudsen. Cast: Andrew Colley. James Folan. Victoria Gee. Richard Gofton. Dean Kelly. Scott Macbain. Olivia Macdonald. Ursula Mohan. Peter G Reed. Richard Sandells. Louise Shuttleworth. Neil Stewart. Charlie Watts. Recent productions of Maxim Gorky’s plays have sparked a resurgence of interest in the playwright and social reformer. The multi-award-winning Finborough Theatre now presents a rare opportunity to experience his undisputed masterpiece (“One of this century’s great seminal works” The Guardian) , opening on May 15 for a four week run. Set amongst the whores, alcoholics, cynics and dosshouse dreamers of a Russia on the brink of revolution, The Lower Depths is a harrowing, violent and uncompromising portrayal of the human sprit at its lowest ebb, with destitution and death an ever present spectre. Can this gang of misfits and losers find any nobility in their hand to mouth struggle for survival? With no easy answers, neat plot twists or satisfying resolution, this ruthless depiction of an underclass without hope shocked audiences in infamous Moscow, London and Berlin premieres. Over a hundred years later, it still feels searingly relevant whenever poverty drives ordinary people to addiction and despair… Director Phil Willmott makes his annual visit to the Finborough Theatre following his acclaimed productions of Loyalties and Trelawny of the ‘Wells’ . In 2006, he was awarded a Peter Brook Empty Space award for his productions of Euripides, Brecht, Sophocles and Shaw at The Scoop open-air amphitheatre on the South Bank.

  • Prologue 1 Setting the Scene
    Notes Prologue 1. For Japanese names I have generally used the order used in Japan: surname followed by first name. However, for personages that are well known outside Japan, I have referred to them as would film critics, theorists, and audiences: first name followed by surname. 2. In fact North American cultural anthropologists have tried to do away with the “culture concept,” thereby essentially undermining their own discipline— much to the amusement of sociologists—and certainly contravening the empirical trend found in most societies, which firmly insist on the existence of their own unique cultures. 3. Although I wonder if the financial is really ignored. Recently my own chil- dren startled me by announcing that they could not believe that a certain famous director had helped produce what they thought was a terrible film. They expected him to have a better sense of where to put his money. 4. Bruner, of course, relies on the work of many others—Barthes, Ricoeur, Chomsky, Kermode—to make his points. 1 Setting the Scene 1. In contrast, the science fiction writer William Gibson (2001) seems well aware of such conceptual loci and even situates them on actual bridges—the meta- phor made real—in his novels. Building on Augé’s (1995) terms, non-places become the birthplaces of innovation. 2. Silent nonnarrative films were shown throughout the end of the nineteenth cen- tury. For example, Japan saw its first film in 1898 (cf. Anderson and Richie 1982). The first narrative film was The Great Train Robbery (1903) directed and photographed by Edwin S.
