This collection of essays explores the continuities and disruptions in the perceptions of criminality, its causes and ways of fighting it in late imperial Russia and the early Soviet Union. It focuses on both the discourse on criminality and thus the conceptualisation of criminality in various disciplines (criminology, psychiatry, and literature), and penal practice, that is, different aspects of criminal law and anti-crime policy. Thus, the volume is markedly interdisciplinary, with authors representing a variety of approaches in history and literary studies, from social history to discourse analysis, from the history of sciences to text analysis. »The volume advances our knowledge of Russian and Soviet criminological thinking and practice.« Jonathan Daly, Journal of Interdisciplinary History, 50/2 (2019) »An important addition to the literature on perceptions of crime and penal policy in Russia and it is sure to spark more research into those subjects.« Alison Rowley, The Russian Review, 78/1 (2018) Besprochen in: H-Soz-u-Kult, 29.01.2019, Alexandra Oberländer Zeitschrift für Geschichtswissenschaft, 7/8 (2020), Björn M. Felder

Wer in der Moderne von Abenteuern erzählt, setzt sich dem Verdacht der Trivialität aus. Doch ein stillschweigender Verzicht aufs Abenteuer fällt auch kanonischen Autoren der Moderne schwer. Der Sammelband nimmt diese Beobachtung zum Anlass einer Spurensuche. Er geht dem Verbleib des Abenteuers in literarischen und theoretischen Texten der Moderne nach. Neben klassischen Abenteuerautoren, wie Karl May oder Rider Haggard, stehen Texte von Goethe, Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust u.a. im Fokus, welche das Abenteuer in einem Spannungsfeld von Integration und Zurückweisung situieren. Darüber hinaus widmet sich der Band der Bedeutung des Abenteuers im kolonialen Diskurs, in der Psychoanalyse und im Russischen Formalismus.
