Kathleen F. Parthé identifies ten historically powerful beliefs about literature and politics in Russia, which include a view of the artistic text as national territory, and the belief that writers must avoid all contact with the state. Parthé offers a compelling analysis of the power of Russian literature to shape national identity despite sustained efforts to silence authors deemed subversive. No amount of repression could prevent the production, distribution, and discussion of texts outside official channels. Along with tragic stories of lost manuscripts and persecuted writers, there is ample evidence of an unbroken thread of political discourse through art. The book concludes with a consideration of the impact of two centuries of dangerous texts on post-Soviet Russia. 606 $aRussian literature$xPolitical aspects 606 $aPolitics and literature$zRussia 606 $aPolitics and literature$zSoviet Union 606 $aPolitics in literature 606 $aNationalism in literature 615 0$aRussian literature$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aPolitics and literature 615 0$aPolitics and literature 615 0$aPolitics in literature. 615 0$aNationalism in literature. 676 $a891.709/358 700 $aParthe?$b Kathleen$01639973 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822214703321 996 $aRussia's dangerous texts$94014732 997 $aUNINA
