"Red Star Over the Shtetl: Nostalgia in Post-Soviet Jewish Culture around the
Globe" with Anna Shternshis

   Monday, November 3, 2014 - 12:00pm
   Clara Sumpf Yiddish Lecture

   Anna Shternshis, Al and Malka Green Associate Professor of Yiddish
   Studies

   Bldg 360 - CCSRE Conference room (map)

   This lecture is in English. There is another lecture in Yiddish at
   4:00pm.

   After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many contemporary Russian
   musicians of Jewish origins turned to Yiddish language and culture in
   search of a meaningful connection to their past and identity. Richly
   illustrated with media clips, the lecture examines how post-Soviet
   Yiddish music addresses issues of Soviet nostalgia and Soviet
   government anti-Semitism, and how it reaches out to both Jewish and
   non-Jewish Russian-speaking audiences across the globe.
