SLL 330g - Russian Thought and Civilization
Professor Sarah Pratt
To put things in the most succinct terms, in this course students will grapple with key aspects of Russian culture as they formed early Russian national identity and continue to the present day.
Two particular aspects will be emphasized: the role of religion and visual culture in shaping this identity, and Russia’s reaction to and interaction with Western culture. If courses had key words, the key words for this one would be icon, holiness, Russia, West, reason, anti-reason, and revolution. The course will examine the way these concepts act as driving forces at various stages in Russian cultural history, as well as the way the forces interact with each other. In addition, SLL330: Russian Thought and Civilization is part of the Core Multimedia Program and affiliated with an MDA 140 course, which will help students develop the intellectual and technical tools to work through course material in various multimedia formats.
