  • Cultural Identity Construction in Russian-Jewish Post-Immigration Literature
    Cultural Identity Construction in Russian-Jewish Post-Immigration Literature by Regan Cathryn Treewater A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Comparative Literature University of Alberta © Regan Cathryn Treewater, 2017 ii Abstract The following dissertation examines narratives of immigration to Western Europe, Israel and North America authored by Russian-speaking writers of Jewish decent, born in the Soviet Union after World War II. The project seeks to investigate representations of resettlement experiences and cultural identity construction in the literature of the post- 1970s Russian-Jewish diaspora. The seven authors whose selected works comprise the corpus of analysis write in Russian, German and English, reflecting the complex performative nature of their own multilayered identities. The authors included are Dina Rubina, Liudmila Ulitskaia, Wladimir Kaminer, Lara Vapnyar, Gary Shteyngart, Irina Reyn, and David Bezmozgis. The corpus is a selection of fictional and semi- autobiographical narratives that focus on cultural displacement and the subsequent renegotiation of ‘self’ following immigration. In the 1970s and final years of Communist rule, over one million Soviet citizens of Jewish heritage immigrated to Western Europe, Israel and North America. Inhospitable government policies towards Soviet citizens identified as Jewish and social traditions of anti-Semitism precipitated this mass exodus. After escaping prejudice within the Soviet system, these Jewish immigrants were marginalized in their adopted homelands as Russians. The following study of displacement and relocation draws on Homi Bhabha’s theories of othering and unhomeliness. The analyzed works demonstrate both culturally based othering and unhomely experiences pre- and post-immigration resulting from relegation to the periphery of society.

Without each of your willingness to invite me into your homes and share your stories, this thesis would not have been possible. Kaja, I thank you especially for your continued support and guidance. Next, I want to give a shout-out to my family and friends, especially my fellow thesis writers, who listened to me talk about my thesis constantly and without a doubt saw the bulk of my negative stress reactions. Thank you all for being such a great support system. It is my hope that at least one of you will read this- here’s looking at you, Mom. Third, I would like to thank Professor Waterhouse for sticking with me throughout this entire process. I could not have done this without your constant kind words and encouragement (though I could have done without your negative commentary about Billy Joel). Thank you for making this possible. Finally, I extend the largest thank you to my wonderful thesis advisors, Professor Karen Auerbach and Professor Chad Bryant.

  • Mushrooms in the Russian Far East
    A MEANS OF SURVIVAL, A MARKER OF FEASTS: MUSHROOMS IN THE RUSSIAN FAR EAST Sveta Yamin-Pasternak Johns Hopkins University While the price of wild mushrooms in North American restaurants and stores ranges from high to unaffordable for people with limited financial means, wild mushrooms for rural low-income households in places as diverse as Eastern Europe, parts of Africa, and the Russian Arctic are an important part of the diet, especially during food short- ages. In Chukotka, in the far northeast of the Russian Federation, wild mushrooms are a source of nourishment in everyday consumption, and were important for survival in times of food scarcity. Depending on social context, mushrooms there have multiple meanings, ranging from emergency food for the hungry to the mark of a festive table. (Mushrooms, Chukchi, Slavs, Yupik, Chukotka) Wild mushrooms are an important source of food for the rural poor in regions as geographically distant from one another as Africa, Eastern Europe, and the Russian Arctic. Not only is there a heavy reliance on them, but also some notable similarities in the ways wild mushrooms are utilized in the cuisines and consumption patterns among the peoples inhabiting these diverse environments. For example, the Bemba in Zambia, Africa, have a porridge (ubwali) served with a mushroom relish made of varieties of Lactarius, Termitomyces, or Amanita, and the dish will likely be the main fare from late November through February or March (Chilieshe 2005; Richards 1939). In Belarus, a favorite dinner entrée is a savory stew of potatoes and golden chanterelle mushrooms. Traveling 14 time zones east of Belarus, we find a similar dish of potatoes and mushrooms that is just as popular along the Pacific and Arctic shores of the Russian Federation.

  • The Feodor Dostoevsky Restaurant Comprehensive Collection of Gastronomic Predilection
    THE FEODOR DOSTOEVSKY RESTAURANT COMPREHENSIVE COLLECTION OF GASTRONOMIC PREDILECTION MENU SAINT PETERSBURG 2016 – 2017 FEODOR DOSTOEVSKY AND THE GUIDING PRINCIPLES OF THE HOUSE "How pleasure and happiness make a person excellent!" F.M. Dostoyevsky, “WHITE NIGHTS” 1848 ”Woe be unto so callous a host that doth neither heed the wishes nor discern the desires of his guests. So mean a creature understandeth not the niceties of hospitality, deserveth not the name of host and be henceforth shunned by one and all.” Dating from the same time as the above-quoted wisdom was the precept that the thoughtful host administered vodka in droplets, the magic number being thirty-five, that his guests might partake of the elixir’s medicinal properties for the restoration of the organism. If you, our esteemed guest, allow us to apply these two sententious precepts of hospitality, we beg to demonstrate that we are not to be counted among the former and that we earnestly adhere to the latter. We therefore proffer a thimbleful of ice-cold vodka, thirty-five drops to be sure, accompanied by a freshly salted cucumber pickle. Be you thus supplied with the essentials for toasting, we bid you raise your dram-glass, along with us, and quaff the contents to the memory of that most genial of hosts, whose name our humble establishment bears, Feodor Dostoevsky. This modest though meaningful token of our hospitality is, needless to say, ON THE HOUSE. The prices are in rubles + 10% service is welcomed, but always remains at the discretion of the customer.

  • Jewish Flavour Principles As Culinary 'Midrash'
    Communicating Jewish Identity Through Taste: Jewish Flavour Principles as Culinary ‘Midrash’ Jonathan Brumberg-Kraus Jewish identity and values are communicated through the cultivation of certain tastes. There are Jewish taste preferences, shaped by Jewish historical experience and literary, religious and cultural heritage. They are not absolute, not every Jew has them at all times and in all places, but there are discernibly Jewish patterns of taste preferences for some foods, disgust for others. Indeed, these Jewish taste preferences have been prescribed or encouraged by Jewish religious and cultural traditions, by advocates with a stake in Jewish group identity and the continuity of the Jewish people as a group (e.g. rabbis, teachers, parents, Jewish recipe book writers, chefs, food producers and distributors, and other Jewish political and cultural leaders) – ‘ethno-political entrepreneurs’ in Rogers Brubaker’s term.1 They use taste to communicate Jews’ historical experience and memories of their ancient Near Eastern Biblical origins and terroir, their dispersion among other peoples and nations throughout the world (‘the Diaspora’ or galut [Exile]) and a pattern of collective suffering and ‘redemption’, from the Exodus from Egypt to the Expulsion from Spain, from settlement of Eastern p3 Europe to mass immigration to the US, from the Holocaust to the foundation of the modern Jewish State of Israel. Jewish taste preferences are somewhat akin to what Elizabeth Rozin and John Prescott describe as flavour principles (really more than taste per se, i.e. the combination of certain patterns of preferred tastes, aromas, ingredients, textures, cooking methods, etc., characteristic of different regionally-based ethnic groups).2 The principles can be traced back to sacred texts like the Bible and rabbinic literature that articulate them in religio-cultural prescriptions.
