    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 469 Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Art Studies: Science, Experience, Education (ICASSEE 2020) Main Themes and Characters of the 1990s in the Cover Versions of Soviet Songs Zhurkova Daria1,* 1The State Institute for Art Studies, Mass Media Arts Department, Moscow, Russia *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The article investigates the aspects of recycling of the Soviet culture drawing on the example of a music TV show "Stariye pesni o glavnom" ("Old Songs About the Most Important Things"). It is traceable that there are main themes that are peculiar to the Russian reality of the 1990s and that are used in the reconstruction of the Soviet era both intentionally and spontaneously. The primary focus is on the features of body discourse, which becomes more and more explicit with each episode and, therefore, diverges from the canons of Soviet morality. This trend of bodily liberation reached its peak when the motif of harem was included in the narrative in the third episode. Another curious feature of the time is gangster characters who "wandered" from episode to episode, disguised in one way or another. The show romanticised the gangsters' image, and the criminal world of the 1990s got its "pedigree" represented by charming, charismatic characters. Keywords: Soviet culture, popular music, Soviet variety art, television, body culture studies, "Old Songs About the Most Important Things", the nineties, recycling, nostalgia, film music, music clips, harem, gangsters glass which showed dramatic changes in people's I. INTRODUCTION relationships and cultural values of the Russian nation This paper draws on the concept of cultural in the critical period.

    Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945

    Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 By Charles David Shaw A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair Professor Victoria Frede-Montemayor Professor Victoria E. Bonnell Summer 2015 Abstract Making Ivan-Uzbek: War, Friendship of the Peoples, and the Creation of Soviet Uzbekistan, 1941-1945 by Charles David Shaw Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair This dissertation addresses the impact of World War II on Uzbek society and contends that the war era should be seen as seen as equally transformative to the tumultuous 1920s and 1930s for Soviet Central Asia. It argues that via the processes of military service, labor mobilization, and the evacuation of Soviet elites and common citizens that Uzbeks joined the broader “Soviet people” or sovetskii narod and overcame the prejudices of being “formerly backward” in Marxist ideology. The dissertation argues that the army was a flexible institution that both catered to national cultural (including Islamic ritual) and linguistic difference but also offered avenues for assimilation to become Ivan-Uzbeks, part of a Russian-speaking, pan-Soviet community of victors. Yet as the war wound down the reemergence of tradition and violence against women made clear the limits of this integration. The dissertation contends that the war shaped the contours of Central Asian society that endured through 1991 and created the basis for thinking of the “Soviet people” as a nation in the 1950s and 1960s.

[email protected] eSharp Issue 14: Imagination and Innovation Eurovision in Moscow: Re-imagining Russia on the Global Stage Paul Jordan (University of Glasgow) This article considers how the Eurovision Song Contest has come to be used by participating countries as a platform for image-building and identity politics. With particular focus on the 2009 contest, this article explores the debates which surrounded the event which was staged in Moscow. The programme is often dismissed as a kitsch and not very serious event in the UK (West 2006), yet even a brief examination of the contest’s history shows that it has in fact had tremendous economic, political and socio-cultural significance for a number of European countries (Jordan 2005, p.51-53). The 2009 event was dubbed ‘the Beijing Olympics of Eurovision’ (Norton 2009) given the spectacle and scale which were like no other before. It was widely seen by media commentators as an opportunity to promote a positive image of Russia to the international media and therefore to the imaginations of millions of viewers (Malpas 2009).
