A Discussion with Petre Petrov

November 8, 2013 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

The Jordan Center’s Colloquium Series serves to introduce the most recent work of scholars within the Slavic field.  Participants come from universities across the country and abroad and work in disciplines ranging from history, political science and anthropology to literature and film. In the third session of the Fall 2013 Colloquium Series, Petre Petrov will join us from Princeton University.

Petre Petrov is an Assistant Professor of Russian at Princeton University, where he teaches courses on twentieth-century Russian literature and culture, Russian and East-European cinema, and topics of persistent fascination. His publications have been devoted to Stalinist socialist realism, Russian literary and cultural theory, film, and topics in modernism. His book, Automatic for the Masses: Authorship and Agency in Early Soviet Culture is under contract with Toronto University Press, and is set to appear in early 2014.
