With the rise of the dominance of biological and racialist discourse in the 1880's, the depiction of Jewish characters in Russian literary and cultural productions underwent a significant change, as these cultural practices recast the Jew not only as an archetypal "exotic" and religious or class Other (as in Romanticism and realist writing), but as a biological Other whose acts, deeds, and thoughts were determined by racial differences. This Jew allegedly had physical and psychological characteristics that were genetically determined and that could not be changed by education, acculturation, conversion to Christianity, or change of social status. This stereotype has become a stable archetype that continues to operate in contemporary Russian society and culture.Borderlines (Boston, Mass.)Jews in popular cultureRussia (Federation)Human body in popular cultureRussia (Federation)Body imageSocial aspectsRussia (Federation)Russian literatureHistory and criticismRussia (Federation)Intellectual lifeRussia (Federation)Ethnic relationsElectronic books.Jews in popular cultureHuman body in popular cultureBody imageSocial aspectsRussian literatureHistory and criticism.305.892/4047Mondry Henrietta860283MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996328046803316Exemplary bodies1938057UNISA
