LIT 071 - (LT) Russian Culture and Literature: Between Asia and Europe

Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
Russia stands at the crossroads in Eastern Europe between Asia and Western Europe. As a consequence, Russian identity is an interesting mix of eastern and western influences. This course will present samplings from many aspects of Russian culture, including art, music, film, literature, language, religious practice, popular culture, customs and traditions, history, and the image of Russia in American culture. Our goal will be to comprehend how Russian culture has established itself between Asia and Europe.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
The course is open to all students regardless of level, and all materials will be read in English. (Formerly Russian Culture and Literature: Between East and West.)
