America and Russia Similarities Both countries are multi-ethnic, continental, great powers, expansionist, tamed a wilderness, and settled by a variety of diverse groups. Both regard themselves as chosen nations with a messianic mission, destined to bring their own versions of enlightenment to less fortunate people, They are both Nuclear powers. The countries both think BIG, are energetic and inventive. The people appreciate casual, direct, and an often blunt way of speaking, and both show heartfelt hospitality to visitors from abroad.

http://www.amherst.edu/~acrc/collections.html

Extractions: The Amherst Center for Russian Culture was established in 1991 by writer, journalist and translator Thomas P. Whitney (Class of 1937) "to give greater depth and meaning to Amherst College undergraduate programs in the various areas of Russian studies...[and to be] a nucleus for study in the entire Russian area by both undergraduate and graduate students of Amherst and of the Pioneer Valley and for visiting students and scholars whose presence in the valley will be an important asset." (Letter of Thomas P. Whitney to President Peter Pouncey, 4 January 1990) The nucleus of the Center is Mr. Whitney's collection of books, journals, newspapers, manuscripts, and other materials, which represent the breadth and depth of Russian cultural achievement in modern times. Since its establishment, the Center has striven to build upon and expand the original Collection in keeping with its strengths and high quality. The aim of this collection is to have the fullest representation of all areas and schools of Russian creative activity, with a focus on modern Russian culture of the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Soviet-period fiction and non-fiction, poetry and prose are featured here, as is the rich literature of the Russian emigration in all its schools. These collections can be found in the

Extractions: SCREENING THE WORD: VISUAL ADAPTATIONS OF LITERATURE IN RUSSIAN AND SOVIET CULTURE An International Conference to be Held at the University of Surrey Literature and Visual Media Research Group, 28-30 May 2002 W.J.T. Mitchell describes word-image boundaries as the site at which the fundamental contradictions of culture are acted out. Perhaps the most important 20th-century manifestation of this boundary is the coming together of cinematic (or television) screen and literary text through film adaptations ( ekranizatsii ) of fiction - a phenomenon which has given literary culture a new lease on life. Given the social and moral burden carried by literature in Russia (where it has, since the nineteenth century, been linked with the biblical Word), and given the key role allotted by Lenin and Stalin to cinema in shoring up Communist ideology, this is particularly true of Soviet and Post-Soviet culture. This international conference aims to explore themes relating to the image-text boundary by examining a broad range of topics centred around: 1) Russian, Soviet and Postsoviet film and television adaptions of fiction, and 2) general issues connected with the relationship between the verbal and the visual in Russian culture.
