Semester Offered: First Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 Credits

This course explores the foundations and on-going influence of fairy tales and folk beliefs in Russian literature and culture (music, visual art, film), and provides a general introduction to the study of folklore and fairy tales. We will engage a range of critical approaches (psychoanalysis, structuralism, feminism), and will compare the Russian tradition with various Western counterparts (Brothers Grimm, Perrault, Disney, etc.). The course culminates in a creative final project. Taught in English.
