Program
«Rivoluzione, utopia e totalitarismo nella letteratura e nella cultura russa del XX secolo»
Il corso prevede un approfondimento storico iniziale, finalizzato a fornire le nozioni necessarie all’interpretazione delle complesse dinamiche socio-culturali che caratterizzano il Novecento russo. Particolare attenzione sarà riservata all’attività di agitazione e di propaganda che dal 1917 ha visto il talento di molti artisti porsi a servizio della grande utopia. I testi letterari presi in esame tracciano un percorso che muove dal magmatico caos di inizio secolo, prosegue nel tempo dell’entusiasmo rivoluzionario e in quello del compromesso (NEP), per poi inoltrarsi nelle manifestazioni della violenza del potere totalitario, che nell’universo concentrazionario trovano l’espressione più tragica.
