Sommario/riassunto |
|
This work explores the Jewish space created by Jewish authors working within the limitations of the Soviet cultural system. It situates Russian- and Yiddish-language authors in the same literary universe - one in which modernism, revolution, and socialist realism join Jewish texts to provide the framework for literary creativity. |
