While each article focuses on a particular short story, collectively they elucidate the developments in each author's oeuvre and in the subjects, structure, and themes of the twentieth-century Russian short story. American, European and Russian scholars discuss the recurrent themes of language's power and limits, of childhood and old age, of art and sexuality, and of cultural, individual and artistic memory. The book opens with a discussion of the short story genre and its socio-cultural function. This book will be of value to all scholars of Russian literature, the short story, and genre theory. 410 0$aCultural Revolutions : Russia in the Twentieth century 606 $aRussian fiction -- 20th century -- History and criticism 606 $aShort stories, Russian -- History and criticism 606 $aShort stories, Russian$xHistory and criticism$y20th century 606 $aRussian fiction$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLanguages & Literatures$2HILCC 606 $aSlavic, Baltic and Albanian Languages & Literatures$2HILCC 615 4$aRussian fiction -- 20th century -- History and criticism. 615 4$aShort stories, Russian -- History and criticism. 615 0$aShort stories, Russian$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aRussian fiction$xHistory and criticism 615 7$aLanguages & Literatures 615 7$aSlavic, Baltic and Albanian Languages & Literatures 676 $a891.73 702 $aParts$b Lyudmila, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt. 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817780303321 996 $aThe Russian Twentieth Century Short Story$94018454 997 $aUNINA
