| Description: | Antologiia samizdata is an impressive, easy to navigate resource which describes and makes available online Soviet samizdat and tamizdat (texts self-published or smuggled abroad to be published). Published by a democratic politician and former dissident, Viacheslav Igrunov, the anthology offers a selection of literary, political and academic texts which circulated in samizdat between 1950 and 1989, but may have been written earlier (e.g. poetry by Fr Pavel Florensky). The anthology may be browsed by period (and then by text type: periodicals and collections; political essays and memoirs; poetry; literary prose) or by author, and the print version of the anthology may be downloaded as PDF files. Entries are cross-referenced. Author entries provide biographical sketches (some illustrated) and links to selected writings. Entries for periodicals (e.g. Vestnik Russkogo Khristianskogo dvizheniia) describe the publication and its significance, but offer limited access to contents. There are several introductory essays; a 'what's new' page offers news about the project and related topics; under 'tales of participants and theoretical aspects' there are links to interviews with project participants and articles about samizdat in Soviet society and culture. This site will be of significant interest to researchers and teachers of Soviet literature, history and culture. |
