But as Josephine von Zitzewitz explains, while much is known about the texts themselves, little is available on the complex communities and cultures that existed around them due to their necessarily secretive, and sometimes dissident, nature.</p><p>By analysing the behaviours of different actors involved in Samizdat readers, typists, librarians and the editors of periodicals in 1970s Leningrad, The Culture of Samizdat fills this lacuna in Soviet history scholarship. Crucially, as well as providing new insight into Samizdat texts, the book makes use of oral and written testimonies to examine the role of Samizdat activists and employs an interdisciplinary theoretical approach drawing on both the sociology of reading and book history. In doing so, von Zitzewitz uncovers the importance of middlemen for Samizdat culture.</p><p>Diligently researched and engagingly written, this book will be of great value to scholars of Soviet cultural history and Russian literary studies alike.</p>...1376345The Culture of Samizdat642713https://www.gandhi.com.mx/6716dc18-8f7f-3d34-b9dd-30237a8c9d7e/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/442230/4188b749-c6d6-4a33-9423-e19c7d3ad99e.jpg?v=638334832286530000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20209781350142640_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_<p>Samizdat, the production and circulation of texts outside official channels, was an integral part of life in the final decades of the Soviet Union.
