RUSS 118 - The Cult(ure) of Putin


Semester Offered: First Semester
Half Course
Credits: 2 credits
Attribute: 2HU, CD, WINT

The world knew little of Vladimir Putin when he first came to power, but almost two decades later Putin has demonstrated a savvy sense for public relations, crafting a public profile that has enjoyed considerable appeal at home even as he has consolidated power. This course will examine different screen and print representations of Putin: those promoted officially and unofficially in the media, in cinema, literature and journalism both in Russia and abroad. No knowledge of Russian required.

Enrollment Limit: 20
Instructor: A. Forman
