Postmodern Crises collects previously published and yet unpublished
Mark Lipovetsky's articles on Russian literature and film. Written
in different years, they focus on cultural and aesthetic crises
that, taken together, constitute the postmodern condition of
Russian culture. The reader will find here articles about classical
subversive texts (such as Nabokov's Lolita), performances (Pussy
Riot), and recent, but also subversive, films. Other articles
discuss such authors as Vladimir Sorokin, such sociocultural
discourses as the discourse of scientific intelligentsia;
post-Soviet adaptations of Socialist Realism, and contemporary
trends of "complex" literature, as well as literary characters
turned into cultural tropes (the Strugatsky's progressors). The
book will be interesting for teachers and scholars of contemporary
Russian literature and culture; it can be used both in
undergraduate and graduate courses.
