Insiders and Outsiders in Russian Cinema Book PDF Summary
“Examines in a remarkably rich and varied way the construction of otherness and foreignness within this complexly ‘national’ cinema tradition.” —John MacKay, Yale University Identifying who was “inside” and who was “outside” the Soviet/Russian body politic has been a matter of intense and violent urgency, especially in the high Stalinist and post-Soviet periods. It is a theme encountered prominently in film. Employing a range of interpretive methods practiced in Russian/Soviet film studies, Insiders and Outsiders in Russian Cinema highlights the varied ways that Russian and Soviet cinema constructed otherness and foreignness. While the essays explore the “us versus them” binary well known to students of Russian culture and the ways in which Russian films depicted these distinctions, the book demonstrates just how impossible maintaining this binary proved to be. Contributors are Anthony Anemone, Julian Graffy, Peter Kenez, Joan Neuberger, Stephen M. Norris, Oleg Sulkin, Yuri Tsivian, Emma Widdis, and Josephine Woll. “An anthology that is the best I have ever had the pleasure of reading . . . Lucidly written, well researched, persuasively argued, lavishly illustrated, Insiders and Outsiders in Russian Cinema can be read with pleasure and profit by anyone from the general reader interested in Russian culture to the most seasoned Russian film specialist.” —Denise J. Youngblood, University of Vermont, Russian Review “In a word, the theoretical richness and sophistication of this collection parallel the complexity of its topics and serve as an excellent cross-section of how the theme of foreigners and outsiders is examined in contemporary studies in film.” —Slavonic & East European Journal
