Please sign in so that we can notify you about a reply
This is a book about grief for the victims of Soviet repressions, about the cultural mechanisms of memory and sorrow. The work of grief reproduces the past in the imagination, texts and rituals, it returns the dead to life, but this is not quite life. Cultural memory after a social disaster is a complex environment in which victims, executioners and witnesses of crimes coexist. Among them live very strange creatures - vampires, zombies, ghosts. From the "case of historians" to masterpieces of Soviet cinema, from monuments to the victims of the Gulag to the post -Soviet "magical historicism", the new book of Alexander Etkinda draws a bizarre panorama of post -catastrophic culture
