Charms of the Cynical Reason: Tricksters in Soviet and Post-Soviet Culture - Cultural Revolutions: Russia in the Twentieth Century
Mark Lipovetsky
Soviet tricksters present survival in a cynical, contradictory and inadequate world, not as a necessity, but as field for creativity, play, and freedom. Through an analysis of the representation of tricksters in soviet and post-soviet culture, this title attempts to draw a virtual map of the soviet and post-soviet cynical reason.
