Book Russian Exceptionalism between East and West

Download or read book Russian Exceptionalism between East and West written by Kevork Oskanian and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph provides a novel long-term approach to the role of Russia’s imperial legacies in its interactions with the former Soviet space. It develops ‘Hybrid Exceptionalism’ as a critical conceptual tool aimed at uncovering the great power’s self-positioning between ‘East’ and ‘West’, and its hierarchical claims over subalterns situated in both civilizational imaginaries. It explores how, in the Tsarist, Soviet, and contemporary eras, distinct civilizational spaces were created, and maintained, through narratives and practices emanating from Russia’s ambiguous relationship with Western modernity, and its part-identification with a subordinated ‘Orient’. The Romanov Empire’s struggles with ‘Russianness’, the USSR’s Marxism-Leninism, and contemporary Russia’s combination of feigned liberal and civilizational discourses are explored as the basis of a series of successive civilising missions, through an interdisciplinary engagement with official discourses, scholarship, and the arts. The book concludes with an exploration of contemporary policy implications for the West, and the former Soviet states themselves.

Book Mykola Lysenko s Sonata in A Minor  Op  16

Download or read book Mykola Lysenko s Sonata in A Minor Op 16 written by Natalka Podstawka and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mykola Lysenko (1842−1912) is recognized as a founding figure of Ukrainian classical music. In 1875, he wrote the Sonata in A minor, Op. 16. This study, complements and expands the author's recording of the Sonata in A minor by providing a theoretical analysis of the piece. Its findings argue that Lysenko used Classical form to present Ukrainian folk elements in the Sonata in A minor, Op. 16 to create a distinct sound. The study is divided into three chapters. Chapter 1 introduces the study by outlining the historical context in which Lysenko wrote the Sonata in A minor, Op. 16, followed by a literature review and summary of the study's goals. In Chapter 2, I analyze the work to show how Lysenko composed in the Classical genre and uses Classical structure to organize this piece. Chapter 3 applies Yakov Soroker's framework for understanding musical motives found in Ukrainian music to show how the Sonata in A minor, Op. 16 syncretizes Ukrainian folk elements with Classical form. In sum, my investigation finds Lysenko integrated Ukrainian motives in the work, thus creating a nationalistic expression within the piece. The study complements the author's recording of Sonata in A minor, Op. 16, completed in partial fulfillment of the Doctor of Arts degree.

Book The Jewish Experience in Classical Music

Download or read book The Jewish Experience in Classical Music written by Alexander Tentser and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-26 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shostakovich and Asia – this unique combination of two highly dissimilar composers allows us to explore the breadth of influence of traditional Jewish culture on Western classical music in the 20th century and beyond. These two composers speak in different musical languages and have very different personalities. Shostakovich, a 20th century Russian composer living under totalitarian Soviet rule, and Asia, a contemporary Jewish-American composer, are nevertheless connected through time by the common thread of Jewish music. The first part of this book deals with Shostakovich and his incorporation of traditional Jewish elements in his music. In recent times there has been a great deal of controversy concerning Shostakovich’s “dissident” outlook and his critical attitude towards the Soviet regime. The contributors to this volume, however, have chosen to focus on the more humane qualities of Shostakovich’s personality, his honesty and courage, which enabled him in difficult times to express through his works Jewish torment and suffering under both the Soviet and Nazi regimes. The second part of this book is dedicated to the music of Daniel Asia and to his philosophical and religious identification with Judaism. Of particular importance is the composer’s opening article, a valuable testament to the religious and aesthetic beliefs that inspired him to create his most significant symphonic work, the Fifth Symphony, Of Songs and Psalms.
