Among the many successes of the Soviet Union were inaugural space
flight-ahead of the United States-and many other triumphs related
to aviation. Aviators and cosmonauts enjoyed heroic status in the
Soviet Union, and provided supports of the Soviet project with
iconic figures which could be used to bolster the regime's visions,
self-confidence, and the image of itself as forward looking and
futuristic. This book explores how the themes of aviation and space
flight have been depicted in film, animation, art, architecture,
and digital media. Incorporating many illustrations, the book
covers a wide range of subjects, including the representations of
heroes, the construction of myths, and the relationship between
visual art forms and Soviet/Russian culture and society.
