What is love? That is the question at the heart of Leo Tolstoy's timeless masterpiece, Anna Karenina. We will undertake intensive, in-depth study of this massive but tightly woven novel, which probes the nature of love by considering it within a series of tensions--between individual autonomy and family responsibilities; the physical and spiritual sides of human nature; rational and instinctive behavior; urban versus rural lifestyles; and the threat that technological advances pose to traditional behaviors. In addition, we will consider the differing perspectives that diverse readers have brought to this novel, as well as film adaptations and short stories that may be seen as responses to Anna Karenina. (Students may not receive credit for both FYS 110 and this class.) |

An intensive reading in Russian of Pushkin's iconic narrative poem about the great flood of 1824 in St. Petersburg. Students will gain an understanding and appreciation of the elements of versification, including meter, rhythm, and rhyme. We will also interpret the poem's plot, including the imaginary "duel" between its central fictional character and the historical figure of Peter the Great (memorialized in the statue known as the bronze horseman). This course also exposes students to the architectural monuments of one of the world's great metropolises. |
