CRW: Cont. Russian Authors

55-4209

Students research reading and writing processes behind selected novels and short stories by principal masterpiece authors of the Soviet period from 1920 to present, such as Bulgakov, Babel, Solzhenitsyn, Pasternak, Platonov, and Nabokov. Drawing upon authors' journals, notebooks, and letters, as well as upon more public writing and interviews, students examine the personal and social contexts in which writers read and respond to what they read. Students give oral and written responses as writers to material.
