Imagining Russian Jewry
Memory, History, Identity (Samuel and Althea Stroum Lectures in Jewish Studies)
"This book explores the many, often overlapping ways in which the Russian Jewish past has been remembered in history, in literature, and in popular culture. Drawing on a wide range of sources - including novels, plays, and archival material - Imagining Russian Jews is a reflection on reading, collective memory and the often uneasy, and also uncomfortably intimate, relationships that exist between seemingly incompatible ways of seeing the past."--BOOK JACKET.
