Milestones in the History of
Russian Culture
Against the backdrop of Russian history, this
lecture course offers an overview of major
developments in Russian literature, music, film,
painting, sculpture, architecture, theatre
(
including opera and ballet), crafts and
costumes.
Spanning the history of Russian culture from its
roots to the present day, the course is divided
into two semesters. The first looks at the culture
of pre-revolutionary Russia (from the icons of
Kievan Rus’ through the times of Ivan the
Terrible and Peter the Great to the ‘golden age’
of the nineteenth century), while the second
covers the culture of Soviet and post-Soviet
Russia from the October Revolution to the
present (the avant-garde of the 20s, Stalinist
social realism, ‘the thaw’ under Khruschev, the
culture of ‘glasnost’ and contemporary Russia).
This multimedia course is intended for a wide
audience with a general interest in Russian
culture. The class consists of a one and a half
hour lecture per week. Lectures are delivered in
English by staff of Trinity College Dublin and
special guest lecturers.
This course will normally run if there is a
minimum of fifteen students enrolled.
