This interdisciplinary conference will look at the scope and nature of Soviet culture disseminated in Britain and significance of cultural relations with the USSR in Britain. It will ask what mechanisms of cultural exchange existed, how Soviet culture was presented to the British public and specialists, and what influence these relations exerted on British writers, creative artists and professionals in fields as diverse as law, music and architecture. It will examine the intersection of this subject with related fields and the methodological challenges associated with approaching literature and culture in a highly politicized context.
The event will be held at the Society for Co-operation in Russian and Soviet Studies, 320 Brixton Road, London SW9 6AB.
The Programme is available to download.
The cost, including refreshments, is £20. Please book via the online store here.
