Unerhörte Subjekte
Sexuelle Gewalt, so wie sie heute verstanden wird, hat es keineswegs schon immer gegeben; sie ist vielmehr ein historisches und damit ein wandelbares Phänomen. Wie sexuelle Gewalt zu dem wurde, was sie heute in der Regel ist - nämlich ultimative Grenzüberschreitung -, erklärt dieses Buch am Beispiel des ausgehenden Zarenreichs. Anhand von Gerichtsakten, Romanen, forensischen Gutachten und Artikeln aus der Boulevardpresse entwirft die Autorin ein lebendiges Panorama der städtischen Gesellschaft Russlands um 1900. Das mikrogeschichtlich orientierte Buch analysiert moderne Entwicklungen der Wahrnehmung sexueller Gewalt, etwa die Entstehung des "pädophilen Typus", aber auch russische Besonderheiten, zum Beispiel die "Epidemie " sexueller Gewalt, die das Zarenreich um 1905 in Atem hielt.
The Englishman from Lebedian
After Evgeny Zamiatin emigrated from the USSR in 1931, he was systematically airbrushed out of Soviet literary history, despite the central role he had played in the cultural life of Russia’s northern capital for nearly twenty years. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, his writings have gradually been rediscovered in Russia, but with his archives scattered between Russia, France, and the USA, the project of reconstructing the story of his life has been a complex task. This book, the first full biography of Zamiatin in any language, draws upon his extensive correspondence and other documents in order to provide an account of his life which explores his intimate preoccupations, as well as uncovering the political and cultural background to many of his works. It reveals a man of strong will and high principles, who negotiated the political dilemmas of his day—including his relationship with Stalin—with great shrewdness.
