This advanced-level Russian language
course is dedicated to the study of the professional and confessional, of
business and love letters by famous Russian writers of the nineteenth century.
We will look at the everyday life, literature, and culture of their time
through the epistolary lens -- a fascinating and enlightening tool for those
who have already encountered great Russian classics either in translation or
in the original. The letters of Pushkin, Gogol, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and
Chekhov will be among the documents offered for reading comprehension,
translation practice, and socio-historical analysis. Pre-requisite: a 200 or
300-level Russian language course. Conducted in Russian. |
