The book argues that the persistent Gothic tropes in the literature of the Russian Empire enact deep historical and cultural tensions arising from Russia's idiosyncratic imperial experience. It brings together theories of empire and colonialism with close readings of canonical and less-studied literary texts as the book explores how Gothic horror arises from the threatening ambiguity of Russia's own past and present, producing the effect Sobol terms 'the imperial uncanny.' Focusing on two spaces of 'the imperial uncanny' - the Baltic 'North'/Finland and the Ukrainian 'South' - the book reconstructs a powerful discursive tradition that reveals the mechanisms of the Russian imperial imagination that are still at work today. 410 0$aNIU series in Slavic, East European, and Eurasian studies. 410 0$aCornell scholarship online. 606 $aGothic fiction (Literary genre), Russian$xHistory and criticism 606 $aUkrainian fiction$xHistory and criticism 606 $aImperialism in literature 606 $aUncanny, The (Psychoanalysis), in literature 610 $aSupernatural, Ukraine, North South Paradigm, Gothic literature. 615 0$aGothic fiction (Literary genre), Russian$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aUkrainian fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aImperialism in literature. 615 0$aUncanny, The (Psychoanalysis), in literature. 676 $a891.7308729 700 $aSobol$b Valeria$01166994 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910651672503321 996 $aHaunted empire$92874163 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03496oam 22006734a 450 001 9910797610203321 005 20170918165654.0 010 $a1-78499-157-0 010 $a1-78170-879-7 010 $a1-78499-156-2 035 $a(CKB)3710000000493222 035 $a(EBL)4083622 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001578433 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16253762 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001578433 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14861242 035 $a(PQKB)11416396 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4083622 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0001281002 035 $a(OCoLC)982020423 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse59494 035 $a(DE-B1597)658797 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781784991562 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000493222 100 $a20151209d2015 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 04$aThe art of the possible$ePolitics and governance in modern British history, 1885?1997: Essays in memory of Duncan Tanner /$fEdited by Chris Williams and Andrew Edwards 210 1$aManchester, UK :$cManchester University Press,$d2015. 210 3$aBaltimore, Md. :$cProject MUSE, $d2017 210 4$d©2015. 215 $a1 online resource (270 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-7190-9071-7 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $tFrontmatter -- $tContents -- $tFigures -- $tEditors and contributors -- $tAcknowledgements -- $tAbbreviations -- $tIntroduction Duncan Tanner and the art of the possible: understanding politics and governance in modern British history -- $t1 The making and remaking of ?common sense? about British economic policy -- $t2 The ?Big State? versus the ?Big Society? in twentieth-century Britain -- $t3 ?One meaning blots out another??
