  • Problems of Mimetic Characterization in Dostoevsky and Tolstoy
    Illusion and Instrument: Problems of Mimetic Characterization in Dostoevsky and Tolstoy By Chloe Susan Liebmann Kitzinger 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 Irina Paperno, Chair Professor Eric Naiman Professor Dorothy J. Hale Spring 2016 Illusion and Instrument: Problems of Mimetic Characterization in Dostoevsky and Tolstoy © 2016 By Chloe Susan Liebmann Kitzinger Abstract Illusion and Instrument: Problems of Mimetic Characterization in Dostoevsky and Tolstoy by Chloe Susan Liebmann Kitzinger Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures University of California, Berkeley Professor Irina Paperno, Chair This dissertation focuses new critical attention on a problem central to the history and theory of the novel, but so far remarkably underexplored: the mimetic illusion that realist characters exist independently from the author’s control, and even from the constraints of form itself. How is this illusion of “life” produced? What conditions maintain it, and at what points does it start to falter? My study investigates the character-systems of three Russian realist novels with widely differing narrative structures — Tolstoy’s War and Peace (1865–1869), and Dostoevsky’s The Adolescent (1875) and The Brothers Karamazov (1879–1880) — that offer rich ground for exploring the sources and limits of mimetic illusion. I suggest, moreover, that Tolstoy and Dostoevsky themselves were preoccupied with this question. Their novels take shape around ambitious projects of characterization that carry them toward the edges of the realist tradition, where the novel begins to give way to other forms of art and thought.

    Monitoring of Russian TV channels | 2015 Executive Summary and Recommendations Supported by This publication has been produced with the assistance of the European Union. The contents of this publication are the sole responsibility of the implementing partners and can in no way be taken to reflect the views of the European Union. Monitoring Russian channels 2015 EaP Civil Society Forum Secretariat | European Endowment for Democracy | Krajowa Rada Radiofonii i Telewizji Executive summary From 1 – 31 March 2015, MEMO 98, a Slovak non-profit specialist media-monitoring organization, Internews Ukraine, a leading Ukrainian non-governmental organization supporting independent media, along with Yerevan Press Club (Armenia), Independent Journalism Center (Moldova), “Yeni Nesil” Union of Journalists (Azerbaijan), Belarusian Association of Journalists (Belarus), and Georgian Charter for Journalistic Ethics (Georgia) jointly monitored eight Russian TV channels to evaluate the level of political diversity in their news coverage of various international and local topics. This monitoring was implemented thanks to the support of the Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum Secretariat (EaP CSF), the European Endowment for Democracy (EED) and the Krajowa Rada Radiofonii i Telewizji (KRRiT). The methodology for the media monitoring was developed by MEMO 98 which has carried out similar monitoring projects in some 50 countries in the last 16 years. It included quantitative analysis of the coverage, which focused on the amount of time allocated to each subject, as well as the tone of the coverage in which the relevant political subjects were portrayed: positive, neutral or negative. Qualitative analysis assessed the performance of the media against specific principles or benchmarks – such as ethical or professional standards – that cannot be easily quantified.

  • Russian in the U.S.*
    IRINA DUBININA, MARIA POLINSKY (BRANDEIS-HARVARD) Russian in the U.S.* According to the 2007 Census, the U.S. is home to 851,170 immigrants from Russia (Community Survey, US Census). Whatever their ethnic identity (“natio- nality”) was according to their Soviet passports, in America they become “Russians.” Russian is one of the ten most spoken languages in the U.S., exclu- ding English, and according to the latest Censuses, the number of native speak- ers of Russian is steadily increasing (Potowski 2010, Kagan – Dillon 2010). This increase owes to a significant influx of Russian speakers who left the Soviet Union in the 1970s and 1980s, as well as to a more recent wave of immigrants from Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States in the post-Soviet period. Although Russians first set foot on American territory in the 18th century and arrived in a number of “waves” throughout the 20th century, only a few descendants of these old immigrants speak Russian.1 In this paper, we will focus on the most recent immigrants from Russia and the CIS because unlike the representatives of the earlier immigration waves, they still speak Russian en masse. The bulk of those who came from the Soviet Union to the U.S. in the 1970s and 1980s were Jews, who were able to immigrate (officially, to Israel) * The authors thank Vladimir Belikov, Elena Beshenkova, Nikolai Vakhtin, Vera Gribanova, Olga Kagan (UCLA), Olga Kagan (Hebrew University), Maxim Krongauz, Oksana Laleko, Anna Mikhailova, Elena Muravenko, Sasha Nikolaev, Ekaterina Protasova, Irina Sekerina, Yakov Testelets, members of the Laboratory of Linguistic Studies at Harvard University, as well as participants of the conferences “Slavic Languages in Emigration and Remigration,” held at the University of Vienna, and “Russian Language Abroad,” held at the Russian State University for the Humanities, for valuable comments on this work.

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Cardinal Scholar Queering Anna Karenina: Reimagining Tolstoy for the Twenty-First Century An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) by Leah Heim Thesis Advisor Dr. Andrea Wolfe Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2019 Expected Date of Graduation May 2019 Abstract "Happy families are all alike. Each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." These famous opening sentences of Leo Tolstoy's masterpiece novel Anna Karenina serve as an axis around which the rest of the novel's plot, characters, and motifs all revolve. The book delves into themes of adultery, society, art, philosophy, and even agriculture, but all these subordinate conversations circle back to the questions posited by the novel's first lines: what are happy families and unhappy families, and how do these families relate to each other? My thesis, part creative project and part analytical project, seeks to speak back against Tolstoy’s idea of the monolithic happy family by offering a queer, postmodern retelling of Anna Karenina where environmental degradation affects families’ fertility and where Anna and Vronsky are two women who must navigate their way through the complex and often painful societal expectations of rural Indiana. Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank Dr. Wolfe for helping me complete this long quest. Dr. Wolfe’s Gender and Literature course provided me with frameworks of feminist literary theory—like ecofeminism and Julia Kristeva’s abjection—that I have continued to use throughout my undergraduate career and that I have used in this very thesis.
