"New and original readings of some major works of Russian literature."Victor Terras, professor emeritus, Brown UniversityThis collection explores the interaction between visual and verbal artists in Russia in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It highlights instances of semiotic interplay between the two artistic media, revealing basic assumptions that Russian culture has maintained about the world and about itself. The book will appeal to scholars of Russian history, literature, and art, as well as to a broad readership interested in questions of cultural semiotics and the theory of art.ContentsIntroduction, by Roger Anderson and Paul DebreczenyThe Romantic Landscape in Early NineteenthCentury Russian Art and Literature, by James WestThe Country House as Setting and Symbol in NineteenthCentury Literature and Art, by Priscilla Reynolds Roosevelt"Montage" in Gogol's Dead Souls: The View from the Bachelor's Carriage, by Gary CoxThe Optics of Narration: Visual Composition in Crime and Punishment, by Roger AndersonChekhov's Use of Impressionism in "The House with the Mansard," by Paul DebreczenyThe Composed Vision of Valentin Serov, by Alison HiltonA Modernist Poetics of Grief in Wartime Works of Tsvetaeva, Filonov, and Kollwitz, by Antonina Filonov GoveIronic "Vision" as an Aesthetics of Displaced Truth in M.
