Designed to enhance
students’ mastery of the Russian language and improve their cultural awareness,
this course examines key developments, personalities and texts in Russian
popular music and culture c. 1960 to the present. While certain concepts,
genres and themes remain central (i.e. Russian singer-songwriter tradition;
Popular Soviet Song; Rock-n-roll as Entertainment and Music of Social Protest;
Russian chanson and the prison subculture; the Russian anecdote and comedy),
the course also explores cultural marginalia, such as select popular television
programs and game and talk shows of the post-Soviet era. Conducted in Russian,
the course focuses on students’ understanding of advanced Russian grammar in
context and acquisition of new vocabulary and idiomatic expressions. Class
