Riassunto:

A significant new work by the renowned literary critique and historian N.N. Shneidman of University of Toronto.This volume examines contemporary literary texts in which Jewish characters appear, or Jewish issues are discussed, written in the Russian language and published in Russia proper, in the years between 1991 and 2006, by writers currently residing in that country. I investigate how Jews view themselves in the new post-Soviet era, how they are perceived by their Russian neighbors, and how these attitudes have changed with the demise of the Soviet state. (from the Introduction) This is an indispensable volume as it provides us with insight into many of the mostcurrent literary texts from Russia and explores the major new and old currents now pervading this new Russian literature.
