Balina, Marina; Goscilo, Helena and Lipovetsky, Mark
Politicizing Magic: An Anthology of Russian and Soviet Fairy Tales
8vo Paperback. Book Condition: New. 229 x 152 mm. A compendium of folkloric, literary, and critical texts that show how the Russian fairy tale acquired political and historical meanings during the Soviet era We were born to make fairy tales come true. As one of Stalinism's more memorable slogans, this one suggests that the fairy tale figured in Soviet culture as far more than a category of children's literature. How much more-and how cannily Russian fairy tales reflect and interpret Soviet culture, especially in its utopian ambitions-becomes clear for the first time in Politicizing Magic, a compendium of folkloric, literary, and critical texts that demonstrate the degree to which ancient fairy-tale fantasies acquired political and historical meanings during the catastrophic twentieth century.Introducing Western readers to the most representative texts of Russian folkloric and literary tales, this book documents a rich exploration of this colorful genre through all periods of Soviet literary production (1920-1985) by authors with varied political and aesthetic allegiances. Here are traditional Russian folkloric tales and transformations of these tales that, adopting the didacticism of Soviet ideology, proved significant for the official discourse of Socialist Realism. Here, too, are narratives produced during the same era that use the fairy-tale paradigm as a deconstructive device aimed at the very underpinnings of the Soviet system. The editors' introductory essays acquaint readers with the fairy-tale paradigm and the permutations it underwent within the utopian dream of Soviet culture, deftly placing each-from traditional folklore to fairy tales of Socialist Realism, to real-life events recast as fairy tales for ironic effect-in its literary, historical, and political contex

Banine
I Miei Giorni Nel Caucaso
8vo, br. ed. pp.302. Baku, 1905. Nascere in una famiglia scandalosamente ricca - il capostipite, Assadullah, nato contadino, morì milionario grazie al petrolio zampillato dal suo campo pieno di sassi - ma allo stesso tempo altrettanto stravagante e popolata da loschi individui, porta con sé sicuri privilegi e indubbi grattacapi. Ultima di quattro sorelle, Banine viene alla luce in un giorno d'inverno movimentato da scioperi, pogrom e altre manifestazioni del genio umano. Nonostante questo, la sua infanzia trascorre felice, allietata dalle torte rigonfie di crema di Fräulein Anna, balia tedesca, e dalle perenni recriminazioni in azero della nonna paterna, una creatura stupefacente, un gigante sbucato da una fiaba di Perrault. Ogni anno la famiglia trascorre diversi mesi in campagna. La casa è grande, eppure a malapena sufficiente a ospitare l'orda che la invade in primavera: la temibile nonna con le sue innumerevoli serve; la figlia maggiore con il marito, la minore senza marito; i loro cinque figli, terrore di Fräulein Anna, bugiardi, ladri, spioni e quant'altro; infine, il figlio più piccolo della nonna, l'infantile e allegro zio Ibrahim, ancora celibe. Là dove i doveri diminuiscono, la libertà cresce, il tempo favorisce i giochi - le zie sono tutte avide giocatrici di poker, passione che coltivano assieme a quella per la maldicenza - e, soprattutto, le liti. Nella famiglia di Banine i litigi hanno infatti un ruolo fondamentale, e per due ragioni: una è da attribuire al temperamento violento e naturalmente predisposto alla lite di tutti i suoi membri; l'altra è l'eredità. La famosa, eterna, inafferrabile eredità, quella che bisogna dividere dopo la morte del capostipite. Questa vita di splendori e baruffe è tuttavia destinata a subire un drastico mutamento. La Rivoluzione d'Ottobre porterà il caos nel Caucaso, una dittatura militare, dominata dagli armeni, prenderà il potere a Baku e darà la caccia ai ricchi azeri, costringendo Banine e la sua famiglia a una precipitosa fuga... Memoir animato da un irresistibile humour, "I miei giorni nel Caucaso" ritrae la vita e il mondo che rendevano un tempo attraenti le rive del Caspio.

Bar Noi Uri
The Cold War and Soviet Mistrust of Churchill's Pursuit of Detente 1951-1955
Brighton: Sussex Academic Press 2008. Cloth. Like New/No d/j as Published. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Type: Book The release of previously unavailable Soviet archives has allowed a re-examination of Anglo-Soviet relations during Churchill's peacetime administration with special emphasis on the Kremlin's motivation for resisting the Prime Minister's attempts to end the Cold War. Throughout 1951-55 the time was not yet ripe for detente: the USSR and Western powers were less than willing to accommodate each other. Instead they engaged in the consolidation of their own blocs and the build-up of their defensive potential. With Winston Churchill becoming the most outspoken advocate of detente the Kremlin greeted the return to power of the Conservative Party under his leadership with a general mistrust. After Josef Stalin's death in March 1953 detente remained a distant reality. The collective leadership was keen to reduce international tensions without modifying its predecessor's foreign policy or abandoning Soviet strongholds of central and eastern Europe. As part of its peace offensive the Kremlin was prepared to improve the atmosphere in relations with Britain and increase the volume of Anglo-Soviet trade. However the British remained mistrustful of the intentions of Stalin's successors and refrained from initiatives leading to a relaxation of export controls independent from American embargo policy. The author demonstrates that Stalin's heirs suspected that Churchill's pursuit of detente was designed to secure far-reaching concessions. Moscow also felt that as a junior partner acting in full dependence on and in co-operation with US policy Churchill was in no position to conciliate between the USSR and the USA. Engaged in a domestic struggle for power members of the collective leadership were reluctant to allow their opponent Georgi Malenkov to negotiate single-handedly with western statesmen. It was only after Nikita Khrushchev's ascendance to power and Churchill's resignation from office that the Kremlin was prepared to participate in summit talks with the western heads of government. 237pp. Sussex Academic Press hardcover
