    Extractions: SCREENING THE WORD: VISUAL ADAPTATIONS OF LITERATURE IN RUSSIAN AND SOVIET CULTURE An International Conference to be Held at the University of Surrey Literature and Visual Media Research Group, 28-30 May 2002 W.J.T. Mitchell describes word-image boundaries as the site at which the fundamental contradictions of culture are acted out. Perhaps the most important 20th-century manifestation of this boundary is the coming together of cinematic (or television) screen and literary text through film adaptations ( ekranizatsii ) of fiction - a phenomenon which has given literary culture a new lease on life. Given the social and moral burden carried by literature in Russia (where it has, since the nineteenth century, been linked with the biblical Word), and given the key role allotted by Lenin and Stalin to cinema in shoring up Communist ideology, this is particularly true of Soviet and Post-Soviet culture. This international conference aims to explore themes relating to the image-text boundary by examining a broad range of topics centred around: 1) Russian, Soviet and Postsoviet film and television adaptions of fiction, and 2) general issues connected with the relationship between the verbal and the visual in Russian culture.

    Extractions: Second generation At the turn of the century the Russian liberal opposition was enforcing its ideas of individual liberty and the ways of limiting the dominant role of tsar and the state. The opposition was doing it at first through zemstvos and dumas and then through different professional organizations. In the autumn of 1905 the first congresses of legal liberal parties were taking place, and in April 1906 Russia became a constitutional monarchy. The two foremost theorists of the twentieth-century Russian liberalism were Pavel Miliukov (1859-1943) and Petr Struve (1870-1944). In his first scholarly works Miliukov tried to underline the difference between Kievan period of Russian history from the Moscow one. Three major premises connect the vision of Russian history by Miliukov in his early historical works: the changeability of Russia throughout its existence, due to its own internal dynamic; in decided contrast to this, the external nature of the formative influences on the state order, culture and national ideas; and the fact of the imposition of borrowed culture from above. Also of great importance was the decision to exclude Kievan history from the history of state order and of national ideas, since "in the north-east there were entirely different conditions of historical development than in the south." At the same time this statement represents a retreat from his bolder assertion, in the lecture course, that "The ancient Kievan period of our history is separated from more recent times not only chronologically, but actually."

Russians participated in the Estonian Independence War - the White Guard (primarily the Northwestern Army of General Judenich) together with Estonian patriots fought against bolshevism. 1920 Estonia received independence according to the Tartu Peace Treaty with the Lenin’s Government. Then the percentage of Russians in the population of the country was about 5% (other minorities - 3-4%). In some border regions they composed and still compose a majority. In 1940 Estonia was incorporated into the Soviet Union. As a result of some industrialization projects, in 1989 Russians composed 30% of population (474 834 of 1 565 662 inhabitants at the moment). The majority of them occupy the Northeastern industrialized area.

    http://www.sfsu.edu/~puboff/programs/undergrad/russian.htm
    
    Extractions: The Russian program offers lower division language courses and courses in advanced language, conversation, composition, linguistics, culture, and civilization as well as a considerable range of literature-both in Russian and in English translation. In this post-Soviet era the study of Russian language and culture, and the knowledge of the country as a whole, becomes even more imperative. Students are either frequently visiting Russia or working there for an extended period of time. In addition, there is now a greater availability of Russian archival material to Western students, researchers, and scholars. Today Russia's extensive natural resources and other business opportunities stimulate the interest of many businesses throughout the United States and other parts of the world. Cognizant of this reality, the Russian program strives to implement courses to respond to these various interests, which are also evident among our students. As a result, the program attempts to balance traditional academic offerings with such practically-oriented courses as Business Russian, the Contemporary Russian Press, and a Translation Workshop. Many business, science, and international relations majors take Russian as a minor or as a second major. The purpose of the Russian program of the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures is to expose its students to various aspects of the Russian language and culture in addition to general and specialized courses in literature, linguistics, and culture.
