Political, social and cultural changes brought about by the reforms
undertaken in the Soviet Union after Stalin's death, have been an
object of extensive studies. However, the period's cinema - a key
provider of ideological support to the reformist project - has
received less systematic attention. This book regards the films
produced in the early post-Stalin period as articulation of the
Russian cultural tradition associated with the values of the
intelligentsia, a champion of the reforms. Representations of the
intelligentsia's worldview are examined in the framework of the
concord between this socio-cultural group and its political
superiors and as images conditioned by its traditional view of
itself as the cultural and moral leader. The first part of the book
focuses on the relationship of stylistic changes produced by the
loosening of the Soviet aesthetic doctrine to the intelligentsia's
mentality. The second part reviews representations of the
intelligentsia's vision of history, particularly in films about the
Second World War. The book is aimed at scholars and students in the
fields of cinema studies, Russian and Soviet history and culture,
and intellectual history.
