In conversation with forty-five first- and second-generation Russian intellectuals who relocated from Russia and the former Soviet Union, the researcher investigates transnational Russian identity through ethnographic, auto-ethnographic, and visual anthropology methods. Educated migrants from Russia who shared with the researcher a comparable epistemic universe and experiential perspective, and who were themselves experts on migration, discuss what it means to belong to global transnational diasporas, how they position themselves in historical contexts of migration, and what they hope to contribute to modern intellectual migrant narratives.

  • Robert Graves the White Goddess
    ROBERT GRAVES THE WHITE GODDESS IN DEDICATION All saints revile her, and all sober men Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean— In scorn of which I sailed to find her In distant regions likeliest to hold her Whom I desired above all things to know, Sister of the mirage and echo. It was a virtue not to stay, To go my headstrong and heroic way Seeking her out at the volcano's head, Among pack ice, or where the track had faded Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers: Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's, Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips, With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips. Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir Will celebrate the Mountain Mother, And every song-bird shout awhile for her; But I am gifted, even in November Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense Of her nakedly worn magnificence I forget cruelty and past betrayal, Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall. FOREWORD am grateful to Philip and Sally Graves, Christopher Hawkes, John Knittel, Valentin Iremonger, Max Mallowan, E. M. Parr, Joshua IPodro, Lynette Roberts, Martin Seymour-Smith, John Heath-Stubbs and numerous correspondents, who have supplied me with source- material for this book: and to Kenneth Gay who has helped me to arrange it. Yet since the first edition appeared in 1946, no expert in ancient Irish or Welsh has offered me the least help in refining my argument, or pointed out any of the errors which are bound to have crept into the text, or even acknowledged my letters.

I’m a poet (And you c’ud mak allowances for that!) “Second Hymn to Lenin” (1932)1 Hugh MacDiarmid has never enjoyed the canonical status his acolytes consider his due. Those acolytes have dwindled in number since the 1970s and ’80s, and, as the end of the second decade of the twenty-first century approaches, there is scant evidence of live interest in the poet’s achievement anywhere in the world, least of all his native Scotland. One reason for this is that MacDiarmid, as Seamus Heaney ruefully remarked, “gave his detractors plenty to work with”;2 quite apart from indulging in cultural and political opining sufficiently provocative for the public at large to dismiss him as a crank, he published a dismaying amount of slipshod and even banal verse, mainly in his later years.

The “Russia 2017: three scenarios” report published in 2007 served as background material and provided a source of stimuli for this work. Examined in the report are both the progress of modernisation in Russia and prospects for the economy all they way up to 2030. A new approach in this work of updating and forecasting has been to seek visions of and scenario themes for development in Russia through a “neighbourly relations in the future” assessment. To deepen its expertise on cross-border neighbourly relations, the Committee visited Imatra and Svetogorsk on 23.4.2010.

  • Hugh Macdiarmid, Naomi Mitchison, Alasdair Gray
    The Image of the Nation as a Woman in Twentieth Century Scottish Literature: Hugh MacDiarmid, Naomi Mitchison, Alasdair Gray Kirsten Stirling In fulfilment of the degreeof PhD University of Glasgow Departmentof Scottish Literature July 2001 Abstract This thesis considersthe use of the allegorical personification of the nation as a woman in the work of the twentieth century Scottish writers Hugh MacDiarmid, Naomi Mitchison and Alasdair Gray. The image of nation as woman, whether as mother, virgin, goddessor victim is widespread in Europeaniconography from the eighteenth century onwards,but is not common in Scotlanduntil the twentieth century. Not only is the objectification of the female figure intrinsic to such imagery objectionable from a feminist point of view, but the female stereotypeswhich surround the figure of the nation are contradictory, and it ultimately reinforces a sexist ideology which constructs women as victims. These political flaws and contradictions are highlighted when the metaphor is consideredin the context of Scotland's peculiar political situation. The three authorsconsidered here exemplify very different usesof the nation-as- woman trope. Comparing their work shows that the image is used differently by male and female writers, and that the changesin both gender politics and nationalist theory during the course of the twentieth century mean that its use in the 1990sis much more self-conscious and parodic than when it is used by Hugh MacDiarmid in the 1920s. Nation as woman is a trope which is much more easily used by male authors, as for example in the work of MacDiarmid and Gray, whereas Naomi Mitchison, in appropriating the voice of mother Scotland,finds problems assertingher own voice as a woman writer in Scotland.

  • The Lost Arms of WWI Europe
    The Lost Heraldry of Europe: Sixteen Shields in St. Thomas Church Fifth Avenue Presented by Maria A. Dering Member, Committee on Heraldry, New York Genealogical & Biographical Society 9 November 2009 •You are about to see sixteen shields -- newly photographed by Douglas Kiddie -- that form an integral part of the World War I Memorial in St. Thomas Church. All of the countries represented were allies of the United States during WWI. Other illustrations have been incorporated as needed. •John Shannon and Jorge Rivera gave yeoman service in identifying the countries -- some extant, some long gone -- which these shields represent; John and Jorge also supplied additional examples of the heraldry of those countries and ruling houses. •English heraldic artist and shield maker Baz Manning kindly donated his time and expertise to comment on the drafting and painting techniques employed. Baz also shared his evaluation of the quality and style of the work, and speculated on the identity of the artist. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to this presentation and to making this event possible, especially the clergy and staff of St. Thomas Church. Thank you for having us here tonight. Let’s turn now to ... The World War I Memorial Based on the concept of St. Thomas’ architect Bertram Goodhue, the World War I Memorial was designed by Lee Lawrie ( 1877-1963 ), one of the finest architectural sculptors of his day. Here is the memorial. We’ll be looking at these shields individually in a few moments. > > > > Here are the 16 shields. [switch] As you’ve seen, they are mounted in two groups of eight, four on top and four on the bottom, on the left- and right-hand doors of the Memorial.
