The use of literary texts in language classrooms is firmly
established, but new questions arise with the transfer to remote
teaching and learning. How do we teach literature online? How do
learners react to being taught literature online? Will new genres
emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic? Is the literary canon changing?
This volume celebrates the vitality of literary and pedagogic
responses to the pandemic and presents research into the phenomena
observed in this evolving field. One strand of the book discusses
literary outputs stimulated by the pandemic as well as past
pandemics. Another strand looks at the pedagogy of engaging
learners with literature online, examining learners of different
ages and of different proficiency levels and different educational
backgrounds, including teacher education. Finally, a third strand
looks at the affordances of various technologies for teaching
online and the way they interact with literature and with language
learning. The contributions in this volume take literature teaching
online away from static lecturing strategies, present numerous
options for online teaching, and provide research-based grounding
for the implementation of these pedagogies.
"The Dynamics of Soviet Politics" is the result of reflective
and thorough research into the centers of a system whose inner
debates are not open to public discussion and review, a system
which tolerates no public opposition parties, no prying
congressional committees, and no investigative journalists to
ferret out secrets. The expert authors offer an inside view of the
workings of this closed system a view rarely found elsewhere in
discussions of Soviet affairs. Their work, building as it does on
the achievements of Soviet studies over the last thirty years, is
firmly rooted in established knowledge and covers sufficient new
ground to enable future studies of Soviet politics and social
practices to move ahead unencumbered by stereotypes,
sensationalism, or mystification.
Among the subjects included are: attitudes toward leadership
and a general discussion of the uses of political history; the
dramatic cycles of officially permitted dissent; the legitimacy of
leadership within a system that has no constitutional provision for
succession; the gradual adoption of Western-inspired administrative
procedures and "systems management"; a study of group competition,
and bureaucratic bargaining; Khrushchev's virgin-lands experiment
and its subsequent retrenchment; the apolitical values of
adolescents; the problems of integrating Central Asia into the
Soviet system; a history of peaceful coexistence and its current
importance in Soviet foreign policy priorities, and, finally, an
overview of Soviet government as an extension of prerevolutionary
oligarchy, with an emphasis on adaptation to political change.
