Beschreibung:

A panoramic, interdisciplinary survey of Russian lives and ';a must-read for any scholar engaging with Russian culture' (The Russian Review). In this interdisciplinary collection of essays, distinguished scholars survey the cultural practices, power relations, and behaviors that characterized Russian daily life from pre-revolutionary times through the post-Soviet present. Microanalyses and transnational perspectives shed new light on the formation and elaboration of gender, ethnicity, class, nationalism, and subjectivity. Changes in consumption and communication patterns, the restructuring of familial and social relations, systems of cultural meanings, and evolving practices in the home, at the workplace, and at sites of leisure are among the topics explored. ';Offers readers a richly theoretical and empirical consideration of the ';state of play' of everyday life as it applies to the interdisciplinary study of Russia.' Slavic Review ';An engaging look at a vibrant area of research... Highly recommended.' Choice ';Volumes of such diversity frequently miss the mark, but this one represents a welcomed introduction to and a ';must' read for anyone seriously interested in the subject.' Cahiers du Monde russe
