Abstract

Drawing upon an extraordinary array of films, noted scholar Emma Widdis shows how Soviet cinema, as it evolved from the revolutionary avant-garde to Socialist Realism, gradually shifted its materialist agenda from emphasizing the external senses to instilling the appropriate internal senses (consciousness, emotions) in the new Soviet subject.

Abstract

In 1917 the Bolsheviks proclaimed a world remade. The task of the new regime, and of the media that served it, was to reshape the old world in revolutionary form, to transform the vast, "ungraspable" space of the Russian Empire into the mapped territory of the Soviet Union. This book shows how Soviet cinema encouraged popular support for state initiatives in the years between the revolution and the Second World War, helping to create a new Russian identity and territory-an "imaginary geography" of Sovietness.Drawing on a vast range of little-known texts, Emma Widdis offers a unique cultural history of the early Soviet period. In particular, she shows how films projected the new Soviet map onto the great shared screen of the popular imagination.

Abstract

What is Russia? Who are Russians? What is 'Russianness'? The question of national identity has long been a vexed one in Russia, and is particularly pertinent in the post-Soviet period. For a thousand years these questions have been central to the work of Russian writers, artists, musicians, film-makers, critics, politicians and philosophers. Questions of national self-identity permeate Russian cultural self-expression. This wide-ranging study, designed for students of Russian literature, culture, and history, explores aspects of national identity in Russian culture from medieval times to the present day. Written by an international team of scholars, the volume offers an accessible overview and a broad, multi-faceted introductory account of this central feature of Russian cultural history. The book is comprehensive and concise; it combines general surveys with a wide range of specific examples to convey the rich texture of Russian cultural expression over the past thousand years.

Abstract

Existe-t-il un cinéma « stalinien » ? Cette question, loin d'être formelle, est essentielle pour saisir la complexité des relations qui se sont nouées, dans l'Union soviétique de Staline, entre le cinéma et le pouvoir politique. Que la production et la diffusion des images aient été strictement contrôlées, que les autorités aient imposé une esthétique - celle du réalisme socialiste -, que Staline, dans la continuité de la politique entreprise par Lénine, ait voulu faire du septième art l'un des principaux outils de sa propagande, personne ne le contestera. Mais cela signifie-t-il pour autant que le cinéma soviétique ait été enfermé pendant plus de vingt-cinq ans dans un moule rigide et étouffant ? Au-delà d'une uniformité apparente de la production, ne peut-on déceler, ici et là, des aspérités, des divergences, voire des espaces d'autonomie ? Telles sont les questions abordées par ce collectif d'auteurs, français et étrangers, qui proposent de porter un regard nouveau sur l'histoire de ce cinéma, en s'intéressant tout autant aux films eux-mêmes qu'à leurs conditions de fabrication et de diffusion.
