When transliterating Russian names and words in the dissertation I have used ALA-LC Romanization tables for Slavic Alphabets, without the two-letter tie characters (so that ц = ts, ю = iu, я = ia) and some of the diacritics (so that ё = e, й = i, э = e). Exceptions are made in the cases where there are other established ways of transliterating a Russian name, such as ‘Leo Tolstoy’, rather than ‘Lev Tolstoi’. Names and words are transliterated from Cyrillic to Latin in the text, while the Cyrillic alphabet is used in the footnotes. The original quotation is referred to in the footnotes in the cases where I have translated quotations from Russian language into English in the text. Note on illustrations. All the illustrations are screenshots from the respective films, taken from online streaming sites. iii The Moral Vertical in Russian Cinema Acknowledgements The goal of a PhD is to write and defend a dissertation.

80 Years Since Female Crew Honored for Record Nonstop Cross-Country Mission
50SKYSHADESImage not found or type unknown- aviation news 80 YEARS SINCE FEMALE CREW HONORED FOR RECORD NONSTOP CROSS-COUNTRY MISSION News / Airlines, Personalities Image not found or type unknown Eighty years ago, on November 2, 1938 the Soviet Union’s Central Executive Committee (abbreviated as TsIK in Russian - the country’s supreme legislative and governing body at that time) for the first time awarded the title of the Hero of the Soviet Union to three women nominees. The country’s highest decoration went to air pilots Valentina Grizodubova, 27, the commander of the Antonov ANT-37 twin-engine plane Rodina (Russian for Motherland), Polina© 2015-2021 Osipenko, 50SKYSHADES.COM 30, the — co-pilotReproduction, and copying, Marina or redistribution Raskova, for commercial 27, the purposes navigator is prohibited. for setting an1 international women’s record for a straight-line non-stop distance flight. On September 24, 1938, a plane called The Rodina with its female crew of three took off from an airfield in Shchyolkovo, in the suburbs of Moscow, to set off towards the Far East. As Valentina Grizodubova would recall later, 50 kilometers away from Moscow, The Rodina entered thick clouds and the crew had no chance to see the Earth’s surface until the moment of landing thousands of kilometers away. At a certain point, the plane started to accumulate ice. When navigator Raskova tried to clear the cockpit’s windshield of hoarfrost, the flight maps flew away with a gust of wind. To get out of the clouds the crew had to climb to an altitude of 7,450 meters and put on the oxygen masks. -
Images of Flight and Aviation and Their Relation to Soviet Identity in Soviet Film 1926-1945
‘Air-mindedness’ and Air Parades: Images of Flight and Aviation and Their Relation to Soviet Identity in Soviet Film 1926-1945 Candyce Veal, UCL PhD Thesis 2 I, Candyce L. Veal, declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 Abstract Taking Soviet films from 1926 to 1945 as its frame of reference, this thesis seeks to answer the question: is autonomous voicing possible in film during a period defined by Stalin’s concentration of power and his authoritarian influence on the arts? Aviation and flight imaging in these films shares characteristics of language, and the examination of the use of aviation and flight as an expressive means reveals nuances in messaging which go beyond the official demand of Soviet Socialist Realism to show life in its revolutionary movement towards socialism. Reviewing the films chronologically, it is shown how they are unified by a metaphor of ‘gaining wings’. In filmic representations of air-shows, Arctic flights, aviation schools, aviation circus-acts, and aircraft invention, the Soviet peoples’ identity in the 1930s became constructed as being metaphorically ‘winged’. This metaphor links to the fundamental Icarian precursor myth and, in turn, speaks to sub-structuring semantic spheres of freedom, transformation, creativity, love and transcendence. Air-parade film communicates symbolically, but refers to real events; like an icon, it visualizes the word of Stalinist- Leninist scriptures. Piloted by heroic ‘falcons’, Soviet destiny was perceived to be a miraculous ‘flight’ which realised the political and technological dreams of centuries. -

Bolshevik Wives: a Study of Soviet Elite Society
Bolshevik Wives A Study of Soviet Elite Society James Peter Young Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Government and International Relations SYDNEY UNIVERSITY 2008 A B S T R A C T Bolshevik Wives: A Study of Soviet Elite Society James Young University of Sydney This thesis explores the lives of key female members of the Bolshevik elite from the revolutionary movement’s beginnings to the time of Stalin’s death. Through analysing the attitudes and contributions of Bolshevik elite women – most particularly the wives of Lenin, Molotov, Voroshilov and Bukharin – it not only provides for a descriptive account of these individual lives, their changing attitudes and activities, but also a more broad-ranging, social handle on the evolution of elite society in the Soviet Union and the changing nature of the Bolshevik elite both physically and ideationally. Chapters one and two focus on the physical and ideological foundations of the Bolshevik marriage. Chapter one traces the ideological approach of the Bolsheviks towards marriage and the family, examining pre-revolutionary socialist positions in relation to women and the family and establishing a benchmark for how the Bolsheviks wished to approach the ‘woman question’. Chapter two examines the nature of the Bolshevik elite marriage from its inception to the coming of the revolution, dwelling particularly on the different pre-revolutionary experiences of Yekaterina Voroshilova and Nadezhda Krupskaya. Chapters three and four then analyse two key areas of wives’ everyday lives during the interwar years. Chapter three looks at the work that Bolshevik wives undertook and how the nature of their employment changed from the 1920s to the 1930s. -

N. Tupolev, well-known in the countries of former Soviet Union and its allies. Its history is not so well-known in the West. This book is one of the first publications in the West about our Design Bureau and aviation industry, especially all-metal aircraft, one of the most influential founders of which was Andrei Nikolaevich Tupolev. This, I hope, will help make our work better known and understood by more people. Our country and our industry are going through a very difficult period of time. We need to develop our contacts with the aviation industry and airlines in other countries and we hope that this book will help us to do so. -
Arctic Aviation As Socialist Construction in Stalinist Russia, 1928-1939 John Mccannon

The use of aircraft in the Soviet Arctic was affected accordingly, with economic and See table of contents developmental needs privileged over scientific ones. In line with its cultivation of pilots as national heroes, the Stalinist regime also took advantage of the international and domestic popular appeal of polar aviators—and the many Publisher(s) exploits they staged in 1928 and afterward—to generate positive publicity for itself. Integrating Arctic aviation into the larger cultural framework of socialist CSTHA/AHSTC realism, the USSR’s state-controlled media complex transformed polar fliers into symbols of Soviet virtue, exemplifying not just trailblazing courage, ISSN aptitude, and the mastery of futuristic technology—motifs common to the 0829-2507 (print) aviation cultures of many countries during this era—but also self-discipline 1918-7750 (digital) and collective effort on behalf of the Soviet homeland and the attainment of socialist utopia.
