Learning outcomes
The course completes the three-year path aimed at acquiring the basics of Russian literary and cultural history. It is therefore linked to courses held in the preceding years complementing them and undertaking in-depth examination of topics related to Russian works and movements.
At the end of the course students will be able to:
1) identify the main dynamics of modern and contemporary Russian historical and literary processes;
2) carry out a textual and comparative analysis using the acquired knowledge;
3) express autonomous and coherent opinions about outstanding moments of Russian cultural and historical development and analyse them properly.
Program
An overview of the history of Russian theatre from the origins to modernist research and experimentation.
The course aims first of all to provide the student with the main historical notions about the development of theatre in Russia. It also involves the analysis of some authors and plays as well as a close look at some directors and actors. Particular attention will be paid to the experimental nature of the theatre in the first thirty years of the 20th century, "a successful period for the Russian show, the golden age of the art of staging" (A.M. Ripellino).
The following literary works will be examined:
• D.I. Fonvizin, Brigadir; Nedorosl’
• A.S. Griboedov, Gore ot uma
• N.V. Gogol', Revizor, Ženit’ba
• A.N. Ostrovskij, Svoi ljudi – sočtemsja
• A.P. Čechov, Djadja Vanja, Tri sestry
• A.А. Blok, Balagančik
• V.V. Majakovskij, Misterija-Buff; Klop
• M.A. Bulgakov, Dni Turbinych

- the possession of the fundamentals of history, culture and literature of the period concerned and the ability of understanding the phenomena
- the ability to carry out a critical analysis of the works in the programme
- the quality of personal rework and proper use of the language.
In case of texts in Russian language in the reference material, the student should be able to summarize and/or comment them in their original language.
