'Freedom from Violence and Lies' is a collection of forty-one
essays by Simon Karlinsky (1924-2009), a prolific and controversial
scholar of modern Russian literature, sexual politics, and music
who taught in the University of California, Berkeley's Department
of Slavic Languages and Literatures from 1964 to 1991. Among
Karlinsky's full-length works are major studies of Marina Tsvetaeva
and Nikolai Gogol, Russian Drama from Its Beginnings to the Age of
Pushkin; editions of Anton Chekhov's letters; writings by Russian
emigres; and correspondence between Vladimir Nabokov and Edmund
Wilson. Karlinsky also wrote frequently for professional journals
and mainstream publications like the New York Times Book Review and
the Nation. The present volume is the first collection of such
shorter writings, spanning more than three decades. It includes
twenty-seven essays on literary topics and fourteen on music, seven
of which have been newly translated from the Russian originals.
